[dj...] Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Generally, I’m pretty good about keeping sugar to a minimum but I have not been able to decline this holiday season, and I think that’s what is causing this bad wave. I felt so geeked up last night after some cookies and ice cream, and feel incredibly shaky today. I’ve really been in a bad spot the last week or so, and I think part of it is related to the constant sweets that have been around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Iv...] Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I just came on to ask about this. I get bad sugar cravings, have a bowl of ice cream, then feel like 💩. I'm still tapering, but alas I am going to have to cut the sugar for 2022. And my neighbor just gave me a 1/2 gallon of eggnog (non-alcoholic). 😲 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[Be...] Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Sugar doesn't bother me at all. I eat chocolate every night and candy in bed and it helps me to calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[...] Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 5 min after i eat any type of sugar I go into acute like symptoms: severe lava-like burning in my skin and nerves, depressed breathing, feeling of an elephant on my chest and severe anxiety for up to 24 hours. This did not happen during benzo withdrawal. It happened just 2 months ago from a setback due to corticosteroid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend brought over a pie, another one cookies. A half. Hour after eating some I felt sluggish and FAT. It's also addictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also a sugar addict, altho I am in remission right now. I am trying to eat more natural sweets found in fruits, but boy, I sure do miss the cookies and cakes and ice cream and candy.

[It...] Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 I love sugar, but sadly for now I have had to swear it off. It definitely revvs me up - I have read this is common for many people. Like any other substance some can manage it just fine and others can't. Sugar is a stimulant so I can absolutely see why it's bothersome to some of us. The weird part is, natural sugars don't effect me at all, but if I ate a cookie or some ice cream or something it definitely flares up all my symtpoms.

[Be...] Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I did the Atkins diet for a few weeks years ago and thought I was going to die. It also gave me a bad taste in my mouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[...] Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 I have Type 2 diabetes, so I can't eat as much sugar as I want. But as I take my meds (after talking to my doctor, I decided to buy Victoza online and give it a try), follow a healthy diet and I'm physically active, I still can have sweets now and then. I want to say that moderation is the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
