In my zeal to ensure that our pregnancy goes through without a hitch, one of the things I’ve given up is sugar.
By the way, let me clarify one thing here: I love sugar. I love anything sugary. I love anything sugary sweet. I believe sugar is one of God’s greatest gifts to mankind. I believe I can survive without a meal but not without dessert. Sugar rules!
Now that you know what I think of sugar …
I realized that one of my regular sources of sugar was the teaspoonful that I added to my cup of milk. I can’t give up drinking milk as it's one of the only three conditions that the doc laid for me: 2 cups (of 250 ml each) every day is a must.
So I gave up sugar. Not entirely, I add six granules. Why six? I don’t know. But it helps to know that somewhere in the liquid realms of 250 ml of milk are some molecules of sugar that help make my day.
Thank God for small mercies!
And here's how our sweet 'little inspiration' fares:
