Inspired by a less than optimal visit to my primary care physician on Friday, I quit sugar over the weekend. And by that, what I really mean is "sweets" - candy, ice cream, cookies, cake... the basics.
I know there's sugar in tomato soup, bread, fruit ,etc. I know that I need to also quit aspartame, but you will have to pry Coke Zero out of my cold, fat, dead hands. I'm not giving that up.
That said, I won't be adding Crystal Lite to my water, because, I can manage unflavored H2O.
I gave sugar one last kiss (off) with a special candy bar:
It didn't taste like much, to be honest. I need to remember that when things start looking grim...
I am so, so close to being done with my antibiotic, and that's a good thing - it has been a real fun experience.
I'm still not right from this whole shitshow. I'm coughing, I'm congested, my headaches are not sudden or severe, but occasionally, I get a persistent dull ache.
I'm willing to admit I might be a little cranky.
Jim and I went to see "A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder" over the weekend. A cute show. Not heavily staged (like Wicked) but really sweet and musically interesting. I really enjoyed it.
I wish I were a soprano. Both the female roles in the show have lovely, operatic voices. There's one man who plays seven or eight roles (male and female). I actually could manage that role, since he's clearly a tenor, but...
Anyway. I'm detoxing on sugar, toxing on Augmentin and I'm not much fun.
I'll try for something a little lighter in February.
