Sugar!

Hi, I'm Chelsea and I'm a sugar addict.

Seriously, I am.  I actually never really cared much for sweets until I got pregnant with my daughter a few years ago.  I always chose foods like hamburgers and french fries over sweet treats.  Now I'm like an addict constantly looking for her next fix.  Give me sugar!

Giving up the sugar is definitely going to be, I'd say, the hardest part of Project Real Food.  But I'd also say it's probably the single most important factor in improving my health and cutting my weight.

Over the next week or two, I'll share some of the scary stuff I've learned about sugar and why I'm so desperate to break this habit once and for all!

In the mean time, I leave you with a great, brand new documentary called Hungry For Change.  I bought the book and got to see the documentary as soon as it was released, but now they've offered it up for free on their website for the next two days.  I'd encourage anyone who might be looking to shed a few pounds who is also interested in real food to watch this!  It's a good one.  :)
