I think I'm going to have to try going off sugar again.

I know I have to do it, but the idea is just so... I don't know.

Over my 22 years of observing people, it seems to me that everyone has at least one thing they're almost incapable of saying "no" to. Drugs, alcohol, food, sex, gambling, shopping, smoking... and sugar is definitely mine. So how do I commit to slowly eliminating it from my diet?

I guess the key word there is "slowly"... so, rather than going cold-turkey this time, what should I do? One day on, one day off... eventually becoming one day on, two days off... and so forth? Or is there a better way?

*sigh*

Determination, commitment, and follow-through are definitely the character traits I wish I had more of. But I suppose the trick is to stop wishing and start doing. Maybe that's the process of becoming adult and becoming a good person... learning to execute and maintain the behaviours and lifestyle that you value. Striving to walk the walk as well as talking the talk. Do as I do, rather than do as I say. All of that.
