Thanks for sharing Tracy. I've been fortunate so far around anything I'd consider craving or mad desire for carbs. In the realm of "addiction" there are people that are addicted to substances and there are also those that are heavy users. Both could wind up in an XA meeting across the table from one another by different circumstances. At the end of the day the later may be able to understand the problem with "over use" or "abuse" and be able to modify their behavior and chose to continue to use or to abstain. The former, generally, if behaviour is not modified and use continues, will continue to suffer both mentally and physically if the substance is used at all.

I'm not sure which of these I am but I am grateful that my desire to use/abuse carbohydrates is not something that my mind latches on to. Why that is so and how it works, I do not know but I do have empathy for those that do as I became addicted to another substance and am recovering from that.

Take Care Tracy!
