I have decided, with the help, support and joint cooperation of my wife, am trying to cut my sugar intake for the next 30 days. I started yesterday and was able to avoid any cookies, cakes, candies, doughnuts, candy bars, etc.
I am attempting to curb my sugar and in the process attempt to lose some weight. I am also attempting to eat better and in so doing be nicer to my body.
This is something I tried a while back, but this time I am not going to quit if I miss one day, I just keep going. I am just going to try and make it through as many days as I can without having sugar. I think this is a better goal than trying to cut out my sugar entirely. I just don't want to have a lot of sugary sweets. They do nothing for my body and only add to my waist line. And I don't want to waste time on my waist line unless I am removing some of it.
I know there are lots of diets out there about eating sugar and not eating sugar. I am just working on trying to limit sugar in my life. Try to place it last on my list of things I want to eat instead of at the top of my list. I want to eat better so my body will feel better and I can enjoy life more, instead of feeling tired, overweight and uncomfortable about myself. I like my self, but I want to love myself. I want to really enjoy who I am fully and who GOD wants me to be.
My mom needed to quite smoking to better be a person that GOD wanted her to me. I think I need to cut down on my sugar so I can be who GOD wants me to be. With doing this I need to watch my portion sizes on other foods too. I know this. I sometimes eat way too much and sometimes just not the right foods either. So I am going to try and dedicate my fueling up to GOD and let Him lead me in what I should be eating and the amounts.
Just like today I am trying to listen to GOD and be more gentle, kind and understanding of people that I deal with. More patient and slow to respond so that I can be more of what GOD wants me to be. I want to give each day to GOD and let him lead me. I have struggled with lots of things in my life and I want to struggle less. I want to allow GOD to be and to work within me.
So starting today, I am going to try and listen more to GOD and try to do what is right by my body and by my family. I am definitely going to try and just live my life and allow GOD to be and to do what needs to be done in my life. That is what I want and that is what I am going to do. I really want this. I want to be more of what GOD wants me to be and I want to allow Him to be in my life what I need.
BTW this ad strikes me as funny. Please take a look. -> Funny Ad.

I was thinking even Alton Brown let's himself have a sugary treat one day a week so that's what I'm going to do.
