I am always looking for good documentaries on healthy eating topics. I watched one today hosted by Katie Curic called FED UP. Wow! I knew sugar was my enemy but the addiction to this "chemical" is mind boggling. The story focuses on kids and their struggles in today's society, but I related to much of the discussion. Even after my surgery I am finding my old habits of eating sweet treats becoming infuriatingly difficult to overcome. I truly am addicted. I know that is how I got to my highest weight level before surgery and after watching this documentary I understand why I am pulled back to my same bad habits. I have to stay away from anything with sugar in it! It is a dangerous path I simply cannot travel. I will watch this documentary as many times as I need to in order to remind myself of the pitfalls of sugar. You know it is bad stuff when cocaine addicted rats choose sugar water over cocaine! Sugar is a drug for me for sure. I recommend you watch this documentary if you have access to Netflix.

I watched this documentary lastnight too - I was surprised to realise (as I'm sure I mustve known before but just not 'thought' about it) that they even condition us from babies, if you give your baby formula...

A very good watch and something that I would watch again too.

That was very "sweet" of you to post this information.

This is an addiction. It is a serious subject and should not be "sugar coated".
