Sugar-Free Lent: Day Thirty-Five

Sugar-Free Lent: Day Thirty-Five!

I was just talking to my daughter on the phone. We were chatting along and were talking about what and how I was doing when I told her that I was still waiting for the bliss of being sugar free. I was fighting with another headache which I was hoping would be well out of the way after so many days. I was telling her that I actually stopped eating fresh fruit as well because I was going to try and see if I will get that bliss eventually when I stopped eating fresh fruit as well.

And then she said: "Have you ever thought of it that that bliss will never happen?"

THAT never occurred to me. Yeah, but what will I do if this never happens? If I never ever get the glowing skin, the kilowatts of energy and the immune booster? For a start I would need to plug my freezer in again and then I would need to sit down and think hard. Preferably under a bright light because my non-glowing skin wouldn't shine enough to save me turning the light on.

How long am I going to wait for the bliss? I know that some sources say that it takes up to 2 months for it to happen and Lent with its 40 days wouldn't cover that. So how much time do I give myself?

I'm still not able to answer that question. Instead I find myself studying the Easter eggs in the shops and wondering how you could make a nice panna cotta without any sweeteners. Anybody any ideas????
