I have been trying to lose weight for about 15 years without much success. I could eat a packet of Tim Tams in one sitting. I could also eat chocolate and lollies all day long. I wouldn't but I would love too.
I am not eating lollies or chocolate at the moment and have cut back on biscuits and alcohol. I have stopped drinking soft drink too. I wish the weight would just drop off but no such luck.
I'm hoping that 2012 will be the year when I get back to the weight I was before I had the 3rd of my 4 children. Cutting out sugar must be a good start. I am also trying to eat fruit every day and drinking lots of green tea.
It's not really the government's job to tax sugar. It is really up to the individual to take some responsibility for their diet. There is enough information out there but sugar is really addictive!!!
