    Then there are two possible ways to approach this:
    - either you go cold turkey
    - or you take little steps. For instance, if you used to eat a whole chocolate, limit yourself to a few squares a day. If you have a piece of cake each day after lunch, make it each other day. If you drink sodas, replace them slowly by water and unsweetened tea. Every few grams less count.

    When you find it hard, think that people with diabetes are not even allowed to eat fruit! Why not giving up sweets when you can still choose to eat them next day instead of having to give up everything with sugar in it for good?

    Good luck! :flowerforyou: One day at a time :smile:

    Might just as well log today, too... cos I already lost the point (as I did on Monday, but I forgot to log it). So here are my numbers:

    Me: 10 - Sweets: 7

    worse than I thought, actually... mmm....

    Didn't have chocolate, yeah! I admit having something sweet, but I am confident that I was under 200cal.

    Ladies, are you not being a tiny bit too strict? Maybe you shouldn't go for "all or nothing" - simply controlling the quantity is a step forward.

    This brings my points up-to-date. I have no idea how I manage to lose points on the way... :ohwell:

    Once again: this month is tough!! - so many temptations at each step. Don't be too harsh on yourselves!

    :flowerforyou:, for all of you who are still trying!

    IF i do this in December, I'm going to have to figure out a different formula, because I need my sweets/junk everyday. I just do :)

    I think this month was a foregone conclusion.
    Me: 1
    Sweets: 24
    I certainly have enjoyed Thanksgiving though.
    Now I just have to get through my son's birthday tomorrow and then maybe I'll go "cold turkey" - no sweets - starting on Monday.:laugh:
