I found fruit varieties that are insanely sweet. Examples are cotton candy grapes and opal apples
>This apple has a soft yet crisp, cream-colored flesh with a sweet taste and a slightly tart finish. The taste has been compared to the Honey Crisp, with hints of pear, coconut, and banana. Opal apples generally look more like their Topaz parent, but owe their sweet flavor and crisp texture to the Golden Delicious.

I bought it less than 3h ago and I'm already finishing it, the pistachios and the kinder-like chocolate are irresistible. I haven't had a proper meal for lunch but despite binging on this I still want some spaghetti with tomato sauce.
Thank you so much for this thread nonny! The pic is mine of course wink

No… I just love eating sweets and once I eat something sugary, I crave more of it.

Went to IKEA yesterday and bought a box of picrl. Two days. that is how long it took me to finish it, alone. I still want more… I'm trying to only eat sweets at works as we often get them as gifts from patients or from a co-worker.

This fucking bastard cake from Costco!!!! It's so fucking good!!! I don't really like chocolate itself but I looove chocolate cake. This has layers of cake, chocolate mousse (with brownie bits in there too), and a top layer of ganache. It's as indulgent as you think it is. My dad and I went to Costco and I was like "haha wow look at the cakes" and jokingly was pointed this one out but to my surprise my dad said we should get it and anyway I'm fucked because I could eat the whole thing in one sitting.
I just love cake in general. Soft and sweet fluffy bread with fluffy whipped cream. Strawberry shortbread cake is probably my favorite, it's so light that I could eat tons of it without stopping. I love candy and cookies, but cakes reign supreme in my heart.
I definitely have a sugar addiction and it sucks but I've weaned myself off most sugary foods save for cakes and other sweet pastries. If we happen to have something like a big dessert like picrel I'll have a piece every day/every other day for a week or so, but I can go long periods of time without it or other pastry desserts because my main source of sugar now is fruit. I know I will have a hard time cutting sugar off in my life so if I'm going to have it, at least fruit is a somewhat better alternative.

Oof I will have to hide this thread.
I've been trying to go low sugar/natural sugar for a bit, because 1) health reasons diabetes runs in the family and 2) the dental bills kek. I had a bad habit of going to the store after work and loading up on shitty snack foods because it was cheap. I stopped doing that and lost 15 pounds and save some extra money. Pic rel is still one of my weaknesses though
For tips I would suggest trying to avoid sugar in drinks at all. Sports drinks and juice are insidious for this bc people think it is healthy to drink these after working out but you're honestly just putting all that sugar right back into your body. I don't like my coffee or tea with sugar but I will sometimes use a little honey if it's certain flavors. I've cut all soda except one that I have very occasionally and I don't really miss it it leaves a unpleasant acidy feeling on your teeth. Alcohol scares me though because even if it's not a sweet drink, your body converts it all into sugars anyway so I'm avoiding drinking for now.
For snacks I like dried fruits, esp strawberries and apples. They give a nice crunch and don't leave me feeling sick like most candy does now. Some brands do have added sugar though so I'd go with Bare.

I am a sugar fiend and am currently on a binge. I've eaten nothing but sugary snacks for about four days.
>What are you craving right now? maltesers
>What's your favorite treat or dessert? at the minute I really like chocolate covered biscuits
>Optional: add a pic
>Are you addicted to sugar? for sure
>Does sugar make you feel happier / more active / soothes you / etc? sugar helps me when I feel upset. I usually binge when I'm unhappy because it soothes me and makes me feel happy and comforted.
I would like to just detox from junk food before I think about detoxing from sugar. at the beginning of the year I didn't eat junk food for the first 25 days. my ideal would be to not eat any junk food for 60 days. I wish I had resources for people who want to detox but I'm looking for them myself. I think meditation could be a good way to stave off cravings, I mean, to allow the feeling of craving to be but to not react to it. I've also heard brushing your teeth or going for a walk when you feel the craving come up can help.

>>250259sugar doesn’t cause type 2 diabetes! dietary fat does since it interferes with the transport of glucose into the cells which leads to high blood sugar, greater insulin secretion, and eventual insulin resistance. eating high carbs/sugar but low fat improves your insulin sensitivity. look up walter kempner rice diet - reversed diabetes by feeding patients white rice, fruit, & cane sugar.
the problem is people associate “sugary” treats with what are in reality quite fatty treats - chocolate, ice cream, cake, candy bars, etc. dried fruit is a great thing to snack on but there’s not much need to fear sugar i.e sucrose. sucrose is just glucose + fructose, chemically the same as what you’ll find in starches & fruits.

I eat like 1-3 a day if I get a box of these just to savor it and make them last.
