Hey Everyone!
I have come to the conclusion that I am addicted to sugar! Uhh!
This time I am going to be competently honest with you all! My Journals last year were honest, but I omitted some topics that I thought were not socially acceptable in most peoples circles. (even on here on F.S.)
.
I had thought of starting a Blog on “Eating Disorders!” Yes, I was told that I have E.D. It has effected me in so many destructive ways. I wanted to talk about this subject, (thinking that I am not the only one that has this disorder, here in F.S.) I have talked to a few people that have this illness in the past. And I have found that they share the same guilt that once had from E.D.
Food has been my friend and my enemy. I eat sweets and sugars to receive some form of satisfaction, or comfort. Mostly at night! I hate the way sugars, sweets cause me to gain weight,-my enemy! So at night I sooth my soul with Sweets to comfort myself. In the morning, I curse the sweets for making me fat! My love-hate relationship goes around and around, leaving me in complete guilt and dismay.
I am getting help for my love hate relationship, and I have started a Face Book page so people can talk about their Eating Disorders, without being judged. If you want to know more, please notify me.
Thanks for listening. This is a very difficult subject for me to open up with and discuss. Yet, I know by doing so, I can heal, and possibly help others! :)) God Bless you all for your support!

Yes, it can be hard to face up to the fact that you have an eating disorder. It took me years to get it through my head that there are some things i can't do and some foods i can't be around because i lose control and the eating takes over. I marvel at how far i have come especially when i think about how things used to be. I've made great progress and it's all because i finally came to grips with my compulsive overeating issues. blessings to you and your journey.

Sugar addiction is real, and not just psychological. If you haven't seen them, there are a few documentaries/lectures (on YouTube) on just how insidious sugar is. One is "Sugar: The Bitter Truth"; another is "The Truth About Sugar" a BBC documentary.

Would love to know more. I have had that same love/hate relationship with sugar. In fact, I've really been craving it the last couple of days, and trying to stay away... cuz I know if I just have one, it won't be the end! Daily struggles :)

Hi, Ann! I think you're in good company. Keep checking in. It works if you work it.

Good for you! I think I go through phases. Some days I have salty cravings which means carbs with salt like chips, crackers, etc and other days I want sweet items. Good luck working on this. I would like to know how you make out.

Ann, my sugar addiction led me to become 125 lbs overweight, depressed, unhealthy and completely overwhelmed. That was years ago now. I'm in much better control now, though still 50 lbs overweight. Thank goodness I learned that I'm just a sugar addict and I cannot eat the stuff without falling down the rabbit hole of depression and loss of control. Getting off sugar and gluten has saved me. Take care of yourself; you are worth it!

Ann, I've got a sugar addiction, too. I haven't had sweets since July 2nd and I feel so much better. When I first starting posting on FS I was 84 lbs. overweight and feeling awful--huffing and puffing when I walked, pounding pulse, just generally bad. I'm still working on my weight, and I occasionally have carb cravings, but not for sweets. You can do this, and we'll be glad to help!
