You are sooo right! I need to stop these bad habits NOW. I know the caffeine and candy is bad. Last week a co-worker got on my case for wanting a piece of candy. I flipped out and resented him for it. (he's big into weight lifting). He also got mad at the co-worker who bought the candy, and who was wanting to give it to me. I got upset because I couldn't have candy and because he was giving us a hard time about it... Later, I thought about it, from his perspective and thought...you know... maybe he's right. The little piece of sugar is controlling what I do and effects my actions... I need the caffeine limited too, but not restricted completely... I have to stay on my feet for long hours...I workout during my lunch break and sometimes that caffeinated boost, gives me an awesome workout. However, I do need to CONTROL the quantity. I need to carry a small 5 oz. bottle and avoid the 32 oz. cups that is given to me during lunch! ugh

I'm more into jolly ranchers and soft chewy juicy fruit things... (uh oh, maybe that's sorbitol? LOL)

I'm not big into chocolate, with one exception... REESE's peanut butter cups. ugh. Easter egg reeses send me into a another zone.

Okay, I'm being counter-productive. None of those for me this year!

I can do this....!

Excuse the spelling Im having a real hard time today thinking. Bad brain fog. lol it just took me 3 tries to spell brain

I do have a sensitive tummy, so avoiding that additive is something I need to avoid.

As of artificial sweetener, I cut them out when I was really sick since I believe they work as inflamatories.
