I'd like to keep pretending like it is the fault of everything else, but ultimately iit is the sugar that is to blame.

I work out vigorously 3-4 times a week and so yoga 2-3 times a week 30-60 minutes for each, usually longer than not. My thyroid has been wonky because of meds but I am off them now. My kidney was showing signs of wonk because of meds but I am also off them now. My weight skyrocketed this last 18 months by 30lbs and I have wanted to blame it on everything from thyroid to high cortisol levels to simply aging, and the truth is, it's sugar and I know it. Not necessarily a ton of processed sugar. I do eat it, a fair amount, but it is fruit that gets me the most. I thought I was being so healthy with fruit and cottage cheese for breakfast, but the fruit just started growing all the time and now every meal has sugar in it, naturally occurring or not, and it has gotten out of control again. I see that now. And the stupid thing is, I am depressed I must make this change so I can not be overweight anymore. I was doing so well, lost 60lbs, maintained the loss for 5 years and year 6 came along and it all came crumbling down and I gained half of my losses back. I felt so good about myself living a healthy life. I want to feel like that again, so why am I so sad I have to restructure my diet again?

Sorry for typos, I suck at phone typing.

Why is sugar just so damn tasty.... Ugh.
