Another reader, Angela, 56, from Arkansas wrote to me to discuss the pleasures associated with kicking sugar and the pains of going back on the stuff.

"OK OK OK -- at the age of 56 -- I freely admit I am an addict to sugar.  I did 3 weeks [taking the SUGAR SHOCK! Challenge Connie issued in] chapter 5 -- to the letter. Lost 12 pounds and felt better then I ever have."

Good for you, Angela! But then she did what many of us have done when first tackling our sugar issues:

"Then went back for 3 weeks of OLD EATING patterns and felt WORSE than ever. Thought at one point I was having a heart attack. Zero energy. DIZZY... fuzzy thinking and wanted to sleep 24/7.

"'This is serious. I am an addict. I need a 12-step program to get off the SUGAR. I will not ever go back to SUGAR. Thank you for your BLOG.  Thank you for your book...wish me luck."

Angela, I do wish you much luck. What's more, I believe in you. FYI, there are some 12-step programs out there which focus on getting off sugar, white flour and alcohol.

Just know that you can win over your sugar addiction! Stay tuned for information about a 21-day program I'm unveiling in the fall to help people kick for good.
