Sugar

[Tai]

Hi guys
I was eating a bit too much sugar for my taste lately, so I decided to quit eating candy and cookies etc. for a while, just to see how that feels. Well, I am SO irritated since then! I just want to make a fight or something haha, and whenever something happens, I get pissed off.
I've noticed this two times before, when I stopped eating sugar. But I only started to realize this when I thought about it today. So it's not like I'm expecting it to happen and it will. Is my body addicted to it or something?
Any experience with this?
:heart:

Tai! :facelol: Maybe you are!

I've read loads and loads of upstream articles about health, nutrition and digestion, we can become addicted to sugar when these fungus grow inside of us, they live on sugar, and when they have no food, they get upset!... but you don't wanna be thinking about this! :puke:

:facelol:

Tai, honey, it is whatever you BELIEVE it is. If you believe sugar is good or bad for you, then whichever one it is will BE.

Same thing with all the other foods, it is what you believe they will do to you that makes it so. It is all about what you "see" (believe.)

If eating sugar makes you feel good and you love it, then by all means, enjoy yourself! :heart:

[Tai]

Yeah, but I also have the belief that it's not good for me and it makes me gain weight.. And I do get this kind of tired feeling from eating it. So I thought eating less of it would be good for me. I still believe that. But still I feel these negative feelings.. Very weird!

Here's the thing that happens with me:When I imagine myself and feel healthy,I am so attracted to veggies...When I feel in shape I so wanna move and work out...I just imagine something,and I get the desire later for the thing that would help me realize that...Funny actually...:heart:

I hardly ever eat processed sugar....puts me in a damn coma almost.

Eat some fruit....natural sugars will curb the pissyness. lol

why don't you offer your banana there Chris? :love:

[Chamber]

Well i was gonna say drink a few beers....cuz alcohol and the barley and hops is just complex sugar anyway.

....but then no one would take me seriously. :facelol:;)

I think Abraham has said that our choices about food are like a very small flea on the back of a very big dog. The dog is what we are doing with our vibration regarding the food, the flea is the actual action taken and food consumed.

They also said to not stop any physical "addictions" until we take care of the underlying vibrations, and then stopping the physical part will be easy.


:heart::heart::heart: Best of Luck :)

Just enjoy the fuck out of those cookies and candy! Make noises like MMMMMMMMM....slurp....crunch...gourglllllleelllll. ..gulp...MMMMMMM!!!!!



LOL!! I agree-- if you eat the cookies/candy while truly enjoying them (feeling good while eating), they will be beneficial to your body.

Thanks for your replies.
Alex, I think that's just it, my body's adjusting. Feels very weird. And it wasn't very much sugar I ate at all, but it WAS almost everyday. And when I eat 1 or 2 cookies everyday, it feels too much for me, because I see what it does to my energy. I get these sort of mood swings or something.

Skibby, I agree. Whenever I am in the vortex, I can indeed eat what I want, and just feel good about it, and I see no negative effects on my body. But at times where I am not completely in the vortex, my body is more sensitive for negative effects I guess.
And I know it's all about what I believe.. But I think it's hard work to change those beliefs. Because even when I am not consciously aware of them, they kick in.. Like, I am allergic to strawberries. And so many times I just forgot about it, and I eat them. The next day my face is full of red pimples..

I think that
it matters not
same is with whatever else you eat if you stop
in some point you will want it
and there's nothing that wrong with it.
Things can be different but not momentaly
if you want it
but what is your reason
start with that!
If your reason is that you think it might be wrog to eat it : change this thought !
You can come there maybe just not JUMP like that !

[asjairok]

well I can add to your post Alex that
I can eat fresh meat
and I can eat so many food at once-mix foods and don't get the problematic stomac issues as diarea
and some people can't
so dear Alex stop bulshiting about Abraham
or don't
anyway
And I eat one mushrom that was very similar to one that is not poison
and when I was told " the truth"
I just said to my self
not me
that's not me who can be ill for that!
And EVERYTHING was just fine buster
I think Abraham just rules !

It's just very personal. Obviously I can't eat everything without it having any effects on my body. And with lots of things I don't mind at all, I feel way better about it. For instance, I stopped eating meat a year or so ago. It feels way way better than eating meat, and I don't miss it at all. Same with quitting smoking, I just felt my energy not being a match to it anymore for some reason, so I quit. And that feels way better in my body as well.
but the sugar thing, well to be honest, it does feel good in my body, but maybe that is because I believe it is good for me, and that has it's effect on my body. I didn't feel that way when I stopped eating meat. I didn't have the belief that eating meat was bad for you, I just listened to my guidance.

Hmm.. wait.. With one thing I followed my guidance, my feelings (I stopped eating meat), and it felt good. With the other thing I followed my beliefs about it being bad for me (stop eating sugar) and it doesn't feel so good..

Tai, I'm with Skibby (:facelol: typing that makes me giggle) can't i just say Alex from the UK.. haha

Anyways.. my dads a health nut and is always coming to me with new rules.. "eat like a bird" "dont eat food x" " take vitamins".. the funniest thing is not long after coming into contact with Abraham i stopped needing vitamins. I believe Abe when they say 'your body is a veritable chemical factory, that can manufacture anything it needs from the food you give it' fo' sho'!

I used to manifest symptoms of allergy to milk because my dad believes he is allergic so i picked up those resistance thoughts from him. I would crave milky things but when i would eat them i would think 'Oh my god i've just eating something thats toxic to my body and is going to throw it off balance' id think that over and over again until my poor body had to fight to digest the milk through the static of my negative thoughts and i manifested symptoms of milk allergy. When I read Ask and It Is Given and I learned from Abraham that my body knows what its doing, every single cell is connected to source energy and there is no food i cant eat that it cant manage i just allowed that to be my new belief. I'd drink a glass of milk and patiently sit with myself as the resistant thoughts came up i would counteract them over and over again with my new awareness of well being.. soon my bodily reactions subsided.. now i can eat any milk product i want and my body loves it!! ( i think i was calcium starved before and there's something about the healthy bacteria & chemcials in milk that makes it so nourishing..mmm)

When it comes to sweets.. I do crave chocolate sometimes.. i've learned to bake and to buy things that satisfy this craving.. i try to support my body if i feel an urge to eat something because its probably the nutrients its craving. as for chocolate and sweets i find it very soothing. The good thing is i'm not using it to close the gap (make up for resistance) it more soothes my resistance. I dont need it, but if i feel for it 80% of the time i satisfy that urge. Listen to your body.. it knows.. there's nothing in the chemical makeup of sugar that is harmful to you but if you dont feel like eating it dont. There are some foods i just dont eat.. there are some i eat every now and again (like bacon) and some i eat alot of (fruits and vegetables).

At first Tai, when i learned from Abraham I could eat whatever i want, i ate alot of what we term unhealthy foods'. Bags of chocolate chip cookies, packets of bacon' I think my body was just making up for all the years of selfimposed starvation from those nutrients. Now i feel drawn to eat lots of vegetables and fruits. I think the reason most people need vitamins is they eat what they are told is good instead of what their body asks for and then ends up having to put the nutrients in artificially. (I do every now and again feel inspired to take vitamin c and i do that too - but its not very often at all)

The point im making, :), is just follow your own body wisdom and dont listen to anything else. The cells of your body know - Source knows. Its all taken care of.. just let it be :grin:

I loved your post, Shari!!!! I felt like a current/future version of me had written it myself!!!!

Thank you for sharing about the milk! I had been tested for allergies a couple years ago, and the Dr. came up with all sorts of "results" that had me shaking in upstream-ness. I avoided the items for a while, but, even then, I don't really notice anything. But I do sometimes choose other foods instead unless I am feeling good about eating it. I believe that in time I will be able to eat anything I choose to, freely and happily.



i try to support my body if i feel an urge to eat something because its probably the nutrients its craving.

Yes!! That's what I tell myself, too. I say, "my body knows what it is doing, and I wouldn't be craving this if my body didn't want it." Plus, if I was really craving something, deprivation would feel worse. It's not about the action, anyway-- it's about feeling good.

as for chocolate and sweets i find it very soothing. The good thing is i'm not using it to close the gap (make up for resistance) it more soothes my resistance. I dont need it, but if i feel for it 80% of the time i satisfy that urge.

Same with me. If I am feeling low on the scale and crave a certain food, I give it to my body gratefully, knowing it will make me feel better in the moment. And this ease-ful way in which I approach the action allows for a releasing of the resistance that caused me to crave something (that I wouldn't normally want to eat) in the first place.

Thanks for your replies. Deva, your story was inspirational.
When you say, you give yourself what you crave, do you mean only when your body craves certain things, or also when you want something in your head?
What I mean, is that this craving for sugar when I don't eat it (which seems to fade away actually, I've eaten no candy etc. in a few days, and I don't feel like eating it that much anymore, so that's good!) but anyway, that craving, that was more in my mind. I got cranky for not eating it. Sure my body had some signs as well, but mostly in my head. So what do you do then?

When we are a bit on the subject, had anyone had any experience with quitting smoking? I used to smoke A LOT, and I quit two years ago. Never touched a cigarette anymore. But still, sometimes I feel I want one. Almost never, but just once in a while I get this physically and mentally feeling I want one. Any experience with that? I talked to William about it, he said there may be something in my body still from the smoking. I think, maybe at the times I feel I want one (I feel it as some sort of rushing feeling in my lungs) my lungs are cleaning itself (since it takes about 7 years)
I don't mind the craving, because I know I won't give in to it, but I am still curious about this.
