Withdrawal symptoms

I'm so glad I started this at the beginning of a long week-end, with nothing special on, as I feel so lethargic this afternoon..
I have had a mild headache since after lunch and have absolutely no energy: this looks, sounds and feels like withdrawal symptoms. Not very pleasant, but then, this means that the bad stuff is leaving my body, leaving room for my body to do without so this is great!

I love reading about other people's stories when they quit sugar. I just love the idea of feeling, one day, like I am at the right weight and all I need to do to maintain is to stay off sugar.
I read Rick Foster's story and I felt so empowered when I read his weight went down and then stabilised naturally after 5 months. This is what I want, I want to feel good in my clothes, good wearing a bikini or a sleeveless dress! I want to be able to forget about my weight and my shape when I go shopping, go on holiday, go out, do a presentation at work. All I want is to be able to focus on other areas of my life. I feel like I have everything but the peace of mind that being overweight does not let me reach.

I was wondering, earlier on, what makes some people able to have cakes, sweets, ice cream, wine, once in a while without becoming addicted. How do they do it if sugar is really addictive? Maybe it's to do with their personality? I have an addictive personality so here we go, the only for me is to go sugar free!
