Have you ever thought the world was out to get you? I posted a while ago about my desire eliminate my sugar addiction.

Well folks it has begun. Operation Sugar Addict. About a month ago I told you all of my plan to work on my sugar addiction. It was hard to admit in such a public forum, epically when some of my friends and family see me as such a ‘fit and healthy person.’ Well 2 weeks […]
