Sugar... my arch-nemesis
Just had an image of gummy worms pop into my head, and I cannot stop thinking about them. I'm trying to cut out/down my sugar, today is day 4. I seriously would punch someone and take their candy right now. The BANE of my existence is sugar. It is in everything, and all around me.
I have weighed portions of snacks like nuts and pop corn... but I want the sweet bliss of a Snickers or Kitkat bar. Ugh... anyone who thinks that sugar addiction isn't a real thing... you are wrong.
I guess I'll go drink 8oz water and scrounge in my desk for a throat lozenge.

Good luck with it. I break every time and then it's not pretty. I try not to keep sugary things in the house. I used to do a square of the dark chocolate but last binge I ate the whole bar so no more of them. I'm eating a half banana and 1/2c of strawberries w a protien powder that says sugar free but never know... So far so good. Good luck. And yes we all know sugar is worse than herion.

LOL. That was funny. (: I feel the same way. I just want some chocolatey goodness. Just keep it out of the house, and DON'T BUY IT!
Actually, I usually run and get a tablespoon of almond butter with some sprinkled cinnamon. That usually satisfies.

Sliced apple with peanut butter really curtails my chocolate craving

Good Luck! Chocolate is still and will always be with you, it's just so darn good!
I have the same problem, I found dark chocolate does not make me crave more sugar so I keep dove dark promises in the drawer for when I really need it. They are 40 calories each, so I can have 2 with a cup of coffee after dinner for desert. The trick for me is to not have it every night, just a couple of times during the week.
I try to keep fresh fruit in the house for when I want something sweet.
Keep at it you'll find what works for you.
