I’d been trying to eat less sugar for over a year, just wanted to feel a bit better, have more energy, maybe help my skin. But every time I tried, I’d end up eating sweets again the moment I felt stressed or overwhelmed
Only recently something actually clicked.
Now I just have, like, one cheesecake with a cappuccino a week. And weirdly — that’s enough.
My skin really did get better, but more than that, I realized I used to eat sugar to distract myself from how I felt. Like I was trying to create a sense of joy instead of actually feeling it.
Now I have to find real ways to comfort myself (it was pretty hard at first tbh).
And the funny thing is — when I’m feeling okay, I don’t even want sugar that much.
I look at something sweet and think that I don’t really want it now
even if its delusional, I really do love the idea of trusting that all of the perceived hardships, anxieties, and lessons ultimately lead to a path that's catered to our individual needs for growth and learning. maybe I am detaching from reality in an effort to cope, but I truly am starting to believe that miracles (big and small) happen daily and that we will all be ok in the end. attention and intention are everything.
