    I had a piece of cake early in the morning, so I guess that puts over my 200cal daily allowance (although I have some provision of calories from the first two days :wink:). To be fair to the others (who are doing so well!!), I'd say it's:

    Homemade jam doesn't count :)

    Evenmore when it's the only sweetner to homemade desert :wink:. In case someone gets confused: my mum's jams have considerable less sugar (and she used raw sugar this time) than the commercial jams.

    This being said:

    Someone brought cake at work, so I might just as well count today already, since I'm over my tolerated 200 calories...

    Loveme - balance is definitely the key. You are doing great.

    Dew - you are still ahead of the game. Keep it going.

    Well...what can I say? I guess I've had too many years of sugar to cut back so drastically overnight.:ohwell:
    Will keep trying.
    Me: 0
    Sweets: 8

    At least you are all making progress. Keep up the good work!!

    Logging ahead again, cos I have the feeling it's kinda 0.5 for each player these past two days. :smile:

    Zaza - maybe count this month as a self-realization time. Is it also possible that you are being TOO strict on yourself as you enter into this? Maybe figure out what your weakness is and cut out maybe just that one brand of candy or cake and see how you can do on that for a week and count each day you resist a success. You are awesome for sticking with it.

    Thanks dew for always being so supportive. :flowerforyou: I am definitely not being too strict - a crepe w/strawberries, chocolate and whipped cream is a win for the sweets.:blushing: But it did taste good!:laugh:
    Me: 0
    Sweets: 9
    However, it is possible that today might be better.

    Knew I was losing last night because my baby boy and I had a movie night at home with all the yummy candy that goes with it. So worth it.

    sheesh, I didn't even notice that I mixed up the LNS' and sweets' contests :laugh: The numbers are correct, though :smile:.
    So: Me: 7 - Sweets: 3 (I had a bit too much bitter chocolate, but I resisted a second cocoa and a sweet desert after dinner).

    Loveme, Lorna, everyone else? Having a long weekend? :wink:
