That darn sugar sets off an "alarm" in the brain that says, "eat more and more" to me! Actually I like the sweets more now than I did before surgery, and that totally scares me too. If I wander into the sweets on the weekend, I can easily see a 1-3 pound gain and then it's back at it on Monday. I swore that I wouldn't use the catch-phrase, "I'll start the diet on Monday", but now I sometimes resort to the pre op diet on a Monday.
I am really being mindful of the sweet temptations and am working on gaining back my willpower over these sinful treats because for me they're evil.
