Recovering Sweets Addict

So it has finally happened. The epiphany I have been waiting for most of my adult life. The "ah ha" moment needed to finally stop the madness, the binging without the purging, the mindless shoveling of desserts into my mouth as if they were all going to vanish from planet earth in the next hour. I have finally realized this - THERE WILL NEVER BE ENOUGH - there will never be enough desserts that I can fill into my pie hole (pun intended), to satisfy me. And do you know what? That gives me the peace I have been craving to know that I CAN have one piece of cake and stop. I now know that eating half a pan of brownies, a chocolate bar, an ice cream sundae, chocolate chip cookies (I could go on) in one weekend does not MAX me out. There are not enough desserts in the world that will ever make me say, "No no, I couldn't possible eat that slab of chocolate cake because I'm sick of dessert. I now know this! Whatever hole I'm trying fill will never be filled, so now I can stop trying to fill it! I can stop after one piece of cake! I can stop after one sundae! I can stop after 6 chocolate chip cookies :-)~
So now as I log off, I'm off to go eat my ONE bowl of ice cream.
I hope!
