This week I was named as a The Shine On award winner by the lovely Angela who found this blog via Pinterest. I popped over to say thank you and noticed that there were two posts selected within her reasoning. I clicked through to read them and marvelled at what I found. A blog. With writing! Woah. I got a pang of missing. I miss writing about stuff. I miss fully crafted posts where I said stuff. Lately I just haven’t really had much stuff to say.
You know how it is.
But there is one thing I could say, one thing that I’ve sort of sitting on because I’m a bit annoyed at myself actually. It’s that this Sugar-Free Suger is not so sugar-free any more. People of the world with their peer pressure to eat crap rejoice. Stinkers. It’s sort of been weighing on my mind and more and more signs have been pointing to a fess up lately. This award, was the tipping point. So I’m committing. Along with my health and fitness goals I talked about in the newsletter I’m committing to living sugar-free.
I confessing my sins to the blog public and laying myself bare in the hopes that the words will start flowing. This blog needs some more words, less pictures and more rambling. I’m going to scale back the outfit photos to two per week unless there is something I MUST show you. Let’s talk more about cooking, whole eating and fitness. Let’s talk more about encouraging people to be their best selves. Lets hear a little more about you!
So confess your blog sins and be forgiven my child!?
{sorry Catholics, I’m just joking around, I promise}.

Hi! I’m Suger; Chief Blogger at Suger Coat It. Blogging since 1901; love a casual ootd, taking photos + writing about things that irk or inspire me. I love wine and cheese, long days in the sun at the beach and spending time with my family. I make stuff for the internet. Which means I take photos, create content, write copy and devise social media plans for personal brands, small businesses and bloggers. You know, living the sweet life.
I love the idea of encouraging people to be their best 🙂
Me too. That seems like a really good idea to me.
I fessed up on my blog 2 weeks ago about the contents of my handbag. Just putting it out there in cyberspace was so cathartic.
You go girl, more words!
(and thanks for popping by my blog this arvo…hopefully no bum callouses for me!)

Oh eeek, I could probably show the insides of my new handbag, it hasn’t had time to accumulate all the crap yet. But the old ones!? No way. Too much junk and rubbish.
More words indeed. And SO glad to hear about your butt. 😉
Got too many of them-It will take up too much space.
I’ve always got space for you Pat!
You’re so forgiven and go for it re: the sugar-free if you really, really need to but I feel poor old sugar is getting too much of a bad wrap. Surely everything in moderation is how they did it in the old days. The problem with sugar is it’s in everything processed. I reckon getting rid of the processed, going more home made and enjoying real food sometimes even real food with a bit of honey or sugar is OK, in moderation. My trouble is the lack of moderation. I need to get more balanced, that’s for sure. Not trying to lecture you against the anti-sugar thing, just sayin’ my bit for the whole sugar revolution to come. Hahaha!!! Everything old is new again and all that x
I hear what you’re saying and absolutely if all we were eating was a bit of honey here and there it would be fine. But the sheer amount of processed and refined sugars in foods makes that moderation almost impossible without basically cutting all sugar. You’re incidentals are just so high. Absolutely the only way to go is clean, whole foods. Skip the processing and you really do skip the majority of sugars. A wise and sensible head as always Kim. x
Why are you going sugar free? Am curious.
Humour me 🙂
It’s probably easiest to refer you back into my archives. I went off sugar before as a bit of an experiment after reading a lot about the volume in foods and how the body responds to it etc. I just operate so well without it and I don’t need it, so why have it?
There is something about you that I’ve always loved. You have such a natural presence. But, if it’s possible, I love you even more for embracing ‘cooking, whole eating and fitness’ as this is what I’m doing. It’s kind of like people don’t believe you can do it when you’re overweight, like I am, so it’ll be wonderful to go on this journey with you.
Thank you, It’s a lot like that sometimes but that’s why it’s so important to keep talking, keep sharing and people will come around. They’ve been brainwashed, that’s all. 😉
I love what ever you wanna do, because I know you, I’m in your corner and cheering you on what ever paths you choose. But you know me and you know I love a rambling post, you get rambling replies from me lol. You also know me and would know how much I love people being inspired to be their best selves. I love trying to be just that for myself and I wish it for others.
Oh and I’m human and I like food, sugar free or not sugar free, whole food or not you post it, I like the look of it, I’ll probably want to cook it.
Keep being the awesome you are. X
Thank you Trudie. This is just what I needed to hear from a friend today.
