.......but I believe it's cancer that will get me. I have to get ready for the fight my genes tell me is in my future.

Yea, I'm trying to give up all refined sugar for starters. I ate way too much of it. Greasy fattening foods always hurt my stomach since I was a child, so I tend to stay away from that. I eat pretty healthy otherwise and this is my last vice. My doctor didn't ask me to do this, but I honestly consumed more than the normal person.
One reason this is so hard is because I'm used to drinking hot tea with carnation evaporated milk and tons and tons of sugar. Evidently, as a baby I was given 1/2 strength Evaporated tin milk instead of formula, so I've been drinking it since day 1. When I used to get pains in my stomach as a child (which was often) my Mom would make me a hot cup of tea. Every night before bed, everyone in my province had toast and hot tea as a means of coming together. I think it's buried deep within my psyche at this point, and I'm greatly missing my comforting friend very much.
