I have had a love affair with sweets for most of my life, I still love candies and I always buy them when shopping for groceries. My cravings start after dinner, I get into them when watching tv and other snacks, I’m definitely addicted. I recently had blood work done and my cholesterol was high and it was my wake up call, I knew it would happen so it wasn’t a surprise, I’m a very thin woman and I can’t keep weight on me, sometimes people say I am so lucky but it’s not true, you can be thin and still have the same problems that others have, it just doesn’t show on the outside. I will now start slowly giving up the bad stuff and try to have a more positive attitude about myself, I was allowing myself to eat badly and excusing all the warnings. In defence of problem with sweets I am a cancer survivor twice in four years and instead of fighting back for my health I went in the other direction and decided I should just enjoy my life day by day and not worry about tomorrow but sadly I know it’s a foolish way to live not to mention it’s bad for cancer so now I’ve been warned and the rest is in my hands.
