Six days no sweets! I can't believe i've made it almost a week. This is a record for me, i couldn't do this without you folks! I think about eating something sweet everyday and just tell myself NO! NO! lol! I feel so good about myself right now and that's new for me. :happy:

That made me smile. So glad you feel good about yourself. That's what it's about.

Forgot to mention....

I helped someone out at work and they treated me to two boxes of Organic Truffles from Whole Foods.
:devil:
One box is chocolate and one is caramel. Yikes!!!! What a temptataion!!!

I looked on the box just to check the nurtrition, thinking it couldn't be too bad if it came from Whole Foods, right??......
3 truffles= 170 calories, 14g fat, 8g Sugar

What to do, what to do????

Share! I'm actually not sure I've ever eaten a truffle, but if it's a forbidden sweet, chances are I'd like it.

Do the math for just one, it won't seem so bad. Not that I'm encouraging you to eat one or anything, just sayin'. :laugh:

Truffles are soooo good. It's like a soft, sweet, ball of chocolate, so soft it starts to melt in your fingers.

I ended up having two this afternoon....just to try them out ya know

I put them in my desk so I can have a piece here and there when I can't resist the chocolate craving.

Doing well still and I am determined to stay strong at the school halloween party with tables brimming over with junk food. I think I can...I think I can!

I know you can...I know you can!!

Marla64

I knew I could-- I knew I could--

but chose not to--

Horrific evening-- more bull**** than any body should have to bear-- so sick of it--

So, yeah, I drowned the sorrows in pumpkin bars with homemade cream cheese frosting--

No, I don't feel any better-- not particularly angry at myself either-- it is what it is--

just want the **** to stop--

So sorry my friend. I had a bite of icecream, thanks to you. IF not for my Marla in my head I would have eaten the entire ice cream cone!!

I hope things are a bit better today.{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Today will be day seven sweet free! I can't tell you how much junk food i would have eaten if it weren't for this (No sweets til Thanksgiving) idea! It would not have been good... : )

Marla64

okay-- so check the ticker-- puh-- go freakin' figure, eh?

I eat my aforementioned pumpkin bars with homemade cream cheese frosting, and I'm down a pound and a half today--

Not something I'm recommending to anyone, needless to say-- but a nice little gift just the same.

Be strong this day, my friends--

Hang in there everybody...if we can get past Halloween we can do anything and it will feel so good to say we did it! If you slipped just start over and see how many days you can still get. Just four hours till the school halloween party and I am sure I can come home and say I did not have any of those yucky yucky very unhealthy treats.

Marla64

No more-- promise!!!!!!!!!

Well, okay, so I kept my promise-- I didn't have any more pumpkin bars--

Instead I had a couple of spoonfuls of two different ice creams, and some Funny Bones--

Not my best effort today-- that's for sure-- dammit.

Do or do not, you idiot-- there is no freakin' try!!!!!!!!!!!!!
