Yes. I don't think people purposefully try to tempt me. I am very good at saying no to anything that is offered. People may offer things to be polite, especially at Easter, so that I don't feel left out. However, it is entirely up to ME to say YES or NO. There are many temptations in this big world of ours, so it is your choice to say yes or no to those temptations. Albeit, it is very hard. I am allowed to eat desserts on special occasions, but I rarely do. I like to prove to myself that I am strong. My dietitian says he has never seen anyone with my willpower before. If I have sweets, I will probably get the taste for sugar again and want it even more. That's what I am afraid of. It really is like an addiction.
yes, i agree - sugar is like an addiction - i cook with natural sugars like dates nowadays and while this is still sugar, it is nowhere near as sweet and not processed.
Are you diabetic?
No, not really, but if I was offered a milk chocolate item, then I can easily say, "No thank you"!
