I gave up sugar about a year ago. Lost about 2 stone and reversed type 2. A pint of Guinness has 5 teaspoons of sugar in it. And I LOVE the export strength 'Nigerian' version.
That story was attributed to Mahatma Gandhi. Supposedly. I use agave or brown sugar & I avoid white bread like Dracula avoids crosses, holy water & garlic although I could still stand to lose 30 - 35 pounds.
Almost a year ago, the whole purpose of my podcast changed because of a similar line of reasoning. But, I should quit eating sugar. I'm bordering on obese, and it's sad to have this body. (Only speaking for myself, as I'm no judging anyone else's body. Mine is not supposed to be this size.)
I'm glad I read that after my bowl of Cap'n Crunch! great, great story, Terry!
So good Terry, thank you!!
Ah, the simplicity! Lovely.

Cannot be done.
A lovely post, Terry. Made me think of Atticus Finch and climbing into someone else's skin and walking around in it.
Holy people speak, yes, and they also listen...

Such a wise story Terry. Thanks for sharing it! I wonder if I should share it with my vegan friends who still wear expensive leather boots...?
Nah. I have hypocrisies of my own to sort out.
