    I didn't expect this month to go this badly for me...

    I think this month was a foregone conclusion.

    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:

    You guys doing this for December too? I'd be interested in joining.

    I've done fairly well this past month, but don't think I could go multiple days without anything!

    I did yesterday and had intentions of doing it again today...then a vendor brought in donuts and I had to smell them for 45 minutes while he talked! I did only have 1/4 of one though, so I consider that a victory! I could have passed it up....but I was starving!

    Question: How much is too much within a day?? If we allow ourselves 50-100 calories of "treats" per day and then 2 or 3 days with more is that a good goal or do we really need to be 100% processed sugar free most of the time? I find that if I say absolutely nothing then I give in more so than I would otherwise.

    I just don't want to give up something sweet even for a day. I'm going to stay with this challenge anyway - I can be the poster child for what you don't want to be - a sugar/chocolate addict.:laugh:

    I almost went the whole day without a sweet. Then I had one little twinge of hunger/appetite tonight and then the floodgates opened. I really hope to do better next month. I can't believe its been a whole month already and I made no progress in this challenge.

    Well, based on the results, I guess I need to have my sweets. Im ok with the results because I believe that moderation is key. So, if I have the calories, I will feed my sweet tooth. (dont worry, I wont go overboard :wink: )

    Dew~Thanks for this challenge!

    ZaZa~Kudos to you for staying with us this month. I think you deserve an extra 5 points just for logging :smile:

    Everybody~Congrats for sticking with this challenge! :drinker: (water)

    I was really busy these days... If anyone can take this over, I won't mind ;). Otherwise, I'll try to start one tomorrow.

    I saw that there hasn't been a new group yet, and I really wanted to do this, so I copied the format, and posted a new group to start TOMORROW! :bigsmile:
