I'm [not] a quitter

I'm not totally giving up sugar, but I'm seriously trying to cut back. All of March was so busy with vacations and work trips that I was eating lots of desserts...and I liked it. I don't regret it but I'd say they've taken their toll. Since I'm now training in earnest for Trailwalker I thought it would be a good time to do a bit of a detox. I don't know how long it will last but I'm trying to not eat chocolate, sweets or anything with added sugar. I know, I know...what fun is there in life?

I allow myself one cheat per week (next week I might let it be a couple since it's my birthday). The problem is, of course, the in between days. I find myself constantly thinking about it. When I walk into a room the first thing I notice is the woman eating cake or a guy eating ice cream. When I'm sitting in my cube at work and hear the crackle of a wrapper it makes me want to go down to the snack shop to get some gummies. Today I replaced my sugar craving with some caffeine. Wow...I have some serious issues. Imagine if I was actually giving up something more serious.
