I Love Sweets

I have a huge addiction to sweets (candy to all you American folks) and chocolate. I just can’t stop myself from eating it, I have no control. At least 90% has to get spent on sweets and chocolate because I simply can’t resist the urge. It’s very rare that there are sweets that I don’t like, but there are some. I have an intense loathing for any sweets or chocolate that have raisins or fruit inside, there’s just no need, if I wanted a piece of fruit I’d have bought some, the next thing I hate is liquorice and aniseed, I think it tastes like that cough medicine you get when you have bronchitis, it’s awful. The last thing I can’t have is boiled lollipops, the taste isn’t the problem here, it goes back to an incident in my childhood when I was having one and it came off of the stick and slid down my throat and I Nearly choked on it. Since then I’ve got a disliking for them. My favourite sweets are sherbet lemons, acid drops and rosy apples. I love apple
Flavoured sweets, they are the best.

Sugar and carbohydrates are addictive. They cause insulin to rise and this causes weight gain and sweet addiction. If you could get through a withdrawal period and try cutting carbs way down you'd get to a point where you would no longer crave sugar. If you still missed the fun of eating sweet things, you could use liquid stevia.
