Ok after yesterday's blow-out binge I'm determined today to get back on track. I have plenty to keep me busy, for sure. I just don't ever want to experience that again, though I have a feeling I will.

I think it was the chocolate syrup that got my sweet tooth going again. Then there was the ice cream. I keep thinking about that cinnamon latte I had at Starbucks... with SF vanilla syrup. I tried to copy it here at home but without the vanilla syrup it's not the same euphoric experience.

So that's it. I absolutely must put my sweet tooth on the Cross.

I read another binge thread I had started regarding hard salami. Since then I have avoided processed meats and haven't repeated the experience. I think the hard salami has sugars in it that I simply cannot handle with any measure of sanity.

I need to get out and do some shopping, prepare for the remainder of the week. I have cabbage for slaw. I have a few salad fixins, so will need more. I need to pick up a roast maybe. I don't want to eat anymore of the ham as I know it has sugars in it.

When I trust in You, Lord, I do not need to soothe myself with food. Through Your grace, I am no longer a slave to impulses and addiction.
