Hey everybody, I'm Ellen. I think I have a serious addiction to sugar, just take a look at my diary. I'm finding that I can lose the weight even with my indulgences. But, I think the key to toning and sculpting is clean eating, so I'll have to say bye bye to the processed sugars soon.

It'll be hard, but it's nice to know there's support!

Hey guys,

So I've just started and I'm seriously addicted to sweets. I haven't been on a scale in years (yeah i need to buy one now),but I know my addiction has contributed to my weight gain. I'm super controlling when it comes to my life and love organization. So Ihave an idea that might help. Setting aside $5-$7 once a month for sweets can help (and if you've been in a candy store lately you know that shouldn't get you far). Basically the first week of that month, when you do groceries, buy the candy and then dish out the candy over the next four weeks. Mark down in a calender the days you can have candy and how many pieces (I would suggest for candy lovers like us placing the days maybe 2-3 times a week). this way you get to eat some candy, but don't over kill. BTW, put the candy in the back of the fridge so that even in you go to the fridge really quick for something you might not see it.

Oh and for days that you just can't get candy out of your head, I try and drink LOTS of water untill the craving passes.

Thats it for my idea.

Hi everyone,

I'm Stassi and I'm definitely a chocolate addict. I usually have chocolate once a day. I am partial to chocolate chip cookies, ice-cream, and chocolate bars. I know that I need to cut down on my sugar intake in order to lose weight and be healthy so I'm excited to get some support from this group.

Hi My name is Kim and Im an addict. No seriously Im addicted to sugar. Not the hard candies like lolly pops but sugar, I used to eat spoons full of sugar when I was a kid and than It progressed to any kind of candy like licorice, malt balls, peppermint patties. I could eat an entire bag feel sick than eat some more... My latest thing is peanut butter, honey and choco syrup.. mixed by the spoon full... oh yeah oreos too... dognuts are my weakness though.... geez I never listed like this before.. kinda gross...

Ive found some ways to curb this craving... which is always, but Id love to hear some others and share mine... its SO hard but I know it CAN be done!!!

good luck everyone and nice to meet ya!

Hi everyone, I'm Nic and I love any type of sweet, chocolate, cake, cookies you name it! This group came at the perfect time - I was doing really well and kind of fell of the wagon today.

Hi, my name is April and I'm definitely a sugarholic.
Sweets have always been my downfall so I am open to any ideas that will help me conquer this.

Hi everyone, I'm Kristina and I am seriously addicted to sweets! Any and every kind, like seriously I love them. My latest addiction has been Turkish Delight, and it really sucks because I am currently trying the Dukan diet and cannot have any sweets, carbs, Nothing. My life until December 1st will be protein and vegetables. Eeeeeek! I've already cheated like a bunch of times and this is only my second week, my last cheat was a handful of oh so delicious Swiss chocolates that my co-worker shared in my office. I'm really going to need support for this one!!!
