Comments on: Parents feeding habits to young children? http://effectsofobesity.net/parents-feeding-habits-to-young-children/ End Obesity With Proper Diets Wed, 23 Jun 2010 18:30:11 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Seeker http://effectsofobesity.net/parents-feeding-habits-to-young-children/comment-page-1/#comment-403 Seeker Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:37:46 +0000 http://effectsofobesity.net/378/parents-feeding-habits-to-young-children/#comment-403 I completely agree with you. I don't have kids, but I used to be a sugarholic. In January I finally decided to completely cut sugar out of my diet. It was really hard, but I did it. I am sooo happy now. I feel better, I am healthier, and I don't have cravings anymore...now that I have broken the addiction. I would've never imagined that I would've done this; I used to think "depriving" myself of sweets was just impossible. I don't feel deprived though, because all desires for it are gone. I have decided if I do have kids in the future, I will not feed them any sugar. They can get it all naturally from fruits, dairy, etc. Feeding young children sugar is like helping them form an addiction to a drug.
