Good luck to you on your journey. I am struggling with this, but more with my kid wanting sweets than with myself overindulging. While it’s up to the parent to teach the young ones and to control such things, our society in general right now is designed in a way where sugar is EVERYWHERE, and not only sugar, but a bunch of chemicals that are included in the so-called “sweets”. Most of them are literally slow-acting low dose poison. It’s a constant struggle to be able to go a different route (and be a stronger influence on your kid than the outside world is), and it’s not an accident that the situation with sugary foods in our society is the way it is.
