I'm not a sweets lover (salt is actually my downfall), but for all you sweets lovers out there, I thought I'd start a little thread to give you a few reasons to walk away when the urge for sweets comes on you.

I'll start by posting the first one, and others can follow up with more:

1. I hate the way sweets make your teeth feel all dirty and coated after you've eaten them!

    If I eat candy or soda, I begin to feel like I'm catching a cold. If I eat too much, I typically end up catching a cold!!
    Sugar weakens the immune system, so I'm told.

  • Sweets make me feel good for a short period of time...until the inevitable crash follows, and my energy level drops through the floor, making me feel miserable!
  • When done in moderation I feel ok. But when I pig out on sweets I just feel like I've let myself down so badly. Then I go down the pity party road and we all know where that leads,..... more sweets! So keeping in moderation is key for me.

    Sweets never leave you feeling satisfied, they only leave you wanting more sweets

    It's like a torture where you get a man lost in a desert and give him a bucket of water that only makes him feel thirstier
