Hi, Samantha, you're welcome, no problems, but boy, I remember devouring potato crisps, then I found almonds, eating too much bread, after over a year, now I am trying to do without, just to break the addiction to bread. I've managed, after 14 months to give up coffee, and lost a lot of little lady complaints, they may have been small, but as a whole, made life not so nice, was very stressed. Now, with meditation and positive affirmations, my acne has all but gone, I always know when I'm stressed, as I get acne on the back of my neck, up into my hairline, ukky....it gets very itchy....I had to give up mushrooms, as it's a fungi, and not good for the candida I had for over 20 years, its almost gone now, I think dairy may be having a little impact their too.
You are lucky you weren't eating a lot of carbs, like me. Before I started, I had already cut out all soft drinks, but was getting my sugar hits in the coffee, 5 sweeteners, 1/3rd of a stick of Nestle caramel coffee additive, on top, and a big slug of caramel topping in there too.
I found out gradually that it was the sugar I liked the coffee for, not the coffee itself, so now have tea, no milk, I like Earl Grey, or green tea, Jasmine. They say White Tea is extra good for you, even better that green tea. I guess Twinings or someone must be gonna release a range of these, as I saw that in the Sunday paper.!!!
Good luck, there is a lot of help available here, and over on the Sweet Poison forum, we love to encourage others if we can.
Love
