Anathema Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Sugar creep! Great term! I have totally experienced sugar creep. It's insidious because I'll be like ya know, a spoonful of brown sugar in my morning tea isn't really a big deal . . . but it kind of sets me up for craving sugar all day. I had a good 4 weeks, then kind of fell apart last week. Lots of various reason, nothing horrible, just sort of lost the plot. So I'm just going to come back strong for the last week, and recommit to the next challenge. FotB FTW!!!

vortexofsleep Posted February 10, 2014 Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Woman, I never even considered using brown sugar in tea. That must be delicious! ...although I just remembered that I don't like sugar in my tea. Yikes. That's how bad my sugar addiction is right now.

Anathema Posted February 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2014 Ha. Yeah, I was raised in the 1970s by California hippies, which meant that brown sugar was considered a health food. Along with butter and cheese . . . because they're natural! Those were the good ol' days. This means that brown sugar is totally a comfort thing for me in a way that more "standard" stuff like cookies or cake aren't. unless you're talking carrot cake or granola cookies, of course . . .

kingclumsy Posted February 11, 2014 Report Share Posted February 11, 2014 I love brown sugar Its my sugar of preference (if any). I'm a bit of a stevia junkie at the moment, it craves my sweet tooth and is (probably)not a "Chemical Sh**storm" as my fiance and the book skinny bitch put it. Not fitness or nutrition related but is comic related. I write a comic called "The Hereafter" (I cant remember if its in my sig or not) but its a weekly-monthly long form webcomic about Britain after the end of civlisation and the beginning of a new one and I've just booked our first table for a convention! They're currently running the kickstarter for the Cheltenham comic convention and if it goes ahead we'll be selling issue 1 (and maybe issue 2 ) of The Hereafter there Provisional bat-dance break!
