Candies are little monsters dressed up in chocolate, nuts and all kinds of gooey stuff. They ruin your thighs, dimple up your butt, build deadly belly fat and make your brain feel like it’s bipolar. Sugar is not an innocent sweet thing; it’s a non-nutritive havoc-causing element that can rob you of all that you desire. Katherine, You are not alone, each year, 120 pounds of added sweetener is consumed in America per person – that’s 1/3 pound of sugar per person every single day! That’s an added 630 calories. Many of these sugar calories are hiding in soft drinks and processed foods, so we may not even know how much sugar we eat every day. Imagine giving up just one candy bar a day and losing 1 pound every two weeks, without making any other change in our diet. That’s an astounding 22 pounds in one year.
