Jean McMillan 2,973 Posted October 13, 2012 Yes, sweets go down entirely too easily, but how to get away from them depends on a things that we don't know about you. Are you making them, buying them and bringing them home or to work, telling yourself you're buying them for your family, sneaking them, etc. etc.? Are you attending a WLS support group? Have you considered attending an OA (Overeaters Anonymous) meeting where you can find a sponsor or some new friends you can call when the sweets are calling you? 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mayasgram 351 Posted October 13, 2012 Don't buy them ,don"t smell them, don't taste even a littlle bit . If you can't handle sweets then just don't have them around. Your kids don't need them nor does your husband if they need something sweet let them go out and have it . I use to eat sweets all the time my go to food was chocolate now I can take it or leave it . It just doesn't appeal to me a little bit is more then I want I find when you STOP eating sugar it loses it's hold on you....... 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cheryl2586 3,053 Posted October 13, 2012 You have to go cold turkey and never eat it again. I can't and won't I have worked to hard to have sugar of any kind. As a matter of fact I was in chili's today eating a grilled chicken salad and the waitress told me if you fill out this card you can get free Desserts and appetizers and I told her I eat neither. I never order and appetizer or do I eat any sweets ever. Its all about what you want. Giving up sugar will help speed up your weight loss 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because sweets are from the devil.lol I can't control myself with sweets. I can have them in the house for hub (he's of normal size), but I can not let any touch my tongue. It does something to my brain. There are ppl who can eat just a little, but I'm not there yet. :*( 1 ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
