Fed Up With Eating Sugar-yet Still Doing It!!!!! Is anyone else out there who starts a program with such high hopes--worksout faithfully and watches what they eat, then out of the blue has a "treat" and 1 bag of chocolate covered almonds later is heading out to the store for the licorice, because you "blew-it" anyway? I was doing sooo good, but now I can't stop dreaming of chocolate (I'm not prejudice--any make, model or brand) I want to start the IR program, but my fear of failure haunts me. I already started the Fat Flush program earlier this year & couldn't stick to it --whats wrong with me???? I joined Curves in April & have lost 13 lbs, but I keep going between 10-13 lbs, every month for the last 2 months. not losing anymore. The Curves program is to eat 6 small meals a day, but that is going to take a HUGE step of faith to eat that much--I have such fear of gaining because my mind tells me "Eat Less". Does anyone have these same feelings, and has anyone gotten control over the sugar addictions that haunt you????

Faith cannot be unanswered.
Her feet were firmly planted on the Rock;
Amid the wildest storms she stands undaunted,
Nor quails before the loudest thunder shock.
She knows Omnipotence has heard her prayer,
And cries, “It shall be done,” sometime, somewhere.
Unanswered yet? Nay, do not say ungranted;
Perhaps your part is not yet wholly done.
The work began when your first prayer was uttered.
And God will finish what He has begun.
If you will keep the incense burning there,
His glory you shall see, sometime, somewhere.
-Robert Browning
“Perhaps one reason God delays His answers to our prayers is because He knows we need to be with Him far more than we need the things we ask of Him.”
