"Freedom doesn't come from fighting your cravings. It comes from choosing who you are."
Lee Davy takes a bold step into the sweet abyss, declaring his vow to quit sugar for good. This episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast is a heartfelt journey into why sugar, once a treat, became an unwelcome guest in Lee's life. If you've ever wondered why that second dessert seems so irresistible, Lee's candid storytelling will strike a chord.
His narrative isn't just about sugar; it's a deeper dive into the choices we make and the identities we craft. Lee shares his personal story of realising that sugar was his substitute for alcohol, filling a void with sweet treats. He explains how a book called 'Fat Chance' by Robert Lustig opened his eyes to the health risks associated with sugar, equating its dangers to those of alcohol and smoking.
The episode isn't just a personal account but a call to reflect on the habits that no longer serve us. Lee introduces the concept of primary, secondary, and fundamental choices, emphasising that real change stems from a deep commitment to who we want to become. His analogy of planting a flag as a primary choice is both simple and powerful. He stresses the importance of having both macro commitments and micro practices to stay aligned with one's goals.
If you're contemplating a lifestyle change or struggling with habits that hold you back, this episode offers both wisdom and humour. Lee's conversational style, peppered with light-hearted moments like his scrambled egg mishap, makes the serious topic of habit change feel approachable and relatable. Tune in to find out why taking a vow might just be the key to unlocking your best self.
