Addiction

One of my close friends is very familiar with eating well and exercising. I on the other hand am good with the exercising part, but LOVE candy and sugar in general! I wanted to make it a goal to get myself off of it and allow my body to become acquainted without it. So, I gave myself that challenge and asked help from Robby to do it with me and coach me through this process. He agreed and we have made it a goal/competition to see who can go the longest without sugar, HFCG, and any other sugar substitutes. We're able to eat natural sugars, which mean...basically fruit! The first week we started, I really did well and was very proud of myself for making it through the first long week without it. In the yoga class I'm taking right now my instructor Tiffany always uses the saying, "Acknowledge the Thought or Feeling and Let it Go!" I really have relied on this quote not only is yoga and Pilate's, but in any situation I come across that I find myself struggling in. I know that if I acknowledge the thoughts the come to my mind EVERYDAY of having candy, I can be strong and let them go. I know I can get over this addiction I have!
