Sugar Blues

I have afflictions that worsen when my sugar intake increases. Nothing drastic. Just fungus. A case of athletes foot (to be specific, athletes little toe) gets worse when I've been eating more sugar. Isn't that nice that my body sends me signals to let me know I need to make an adjustment.
To highlight the evils of refined sugar, it goes into the body, travels around and comes out as fat... out as in, out into my hips thighs and butt. then my fungus eats it up. happy happy fungus. Even too much high sugar fruit can go the bad route.
Rough time of year to try eating spinach instead of cookies. And the sugar in cookies is usually attached to some sort of fat (as in butter) and white refined flour (which turns to sugar and then - FAT).
don't forget the booze. alcohol = sugar.
I'm not making any promises but it's my message for the day to watch out for the evils of sugar and try try try to give it a rest... and try try try to exercise 6 days a week.
Exercise makes me feel better. Coming down from sugar is bad.
Holiday depression. ugh.
Get out and feel the sunshine!
