We have so much to be thankful for. Why is it so hard to stay on track? I lost another pound because I have not given in to my addictive behaviors of eating chocolate especially. I think it is because no one acknowledges that sweets are addictive that we don't look at it like drugs or alcohol. I read a book called the pleasure trap that describes scientifically how we have these receptors for the pleasure hormones like dopamine that are powerful enough to persuade to indulge in sugar. They are not as powerful as hard drugs, but still must be resisted to be a healthy weight or we get diseases like diabetes and heart diseases like stroke, arteriosclerosis, etc. thanks for your support.
