Hump Day Confessional: I’m addicted… to cereal.

Today’s Confession…

I have an issue with cold cereal, and not just any, but the sugar-sweetened kind. I can eat that all day long, everyday, and never grow tired of it. If I could, I would consume those calories as easily as breathing and it takes a great deal of effort on my part to avoid that.

Apple Jacks, Cocoa Pebbles, Captain Crunch (regular and peanut butter), and Lucky Charms = big problems for me. If allowed to, I will take down an entire box in one day. No joke. I don’t live by the “cereal is for breakfast” rule. For me, cereal is for any time of the day and night. It’s as addictive to me as InuYasha and U-KISS, more so, because it’s real and waiting for me at any store, 24/7.

I’m not ashamed of my cereal addiction. I don’t care what people think of it. If I did, I wouldn’t be writing this now. It’s who I am -a cereal fiend. I’d rather say I want to eat Peanut Butter Crunch all day than say I want some coke, crack, or heroin. I love cereal and that’s just that.

But it’s not something I allow myself to overindulge in anymore. I lost 40lbs after giving up my appetite for cereal (along with other high-sugar stuff), and I can’t go backward, but when I can, I still have a bowl here or there. I’ll eat cereal for the rest of my life and I’m not willing to give it up completely for anyone. Ever.
