    Confession time - my lovely ds came home and told me he needed two dozen cookies in approx 2 hours and so in my haste to figure out what to make I decided on fudge. Well as I was making it with "help" from dd, some splashed on my finger and I popped my finger in my mouth because it was hot and hurt like crazy. I didn't techinally swallow so I am not counting it though! :laugh:

    Can't resist. Didn't swallow, huh? :laugh: Don't tell me I was the only one who thought it!

    You are good and I'm proud of ya! Keep it up.

    I'll report.

    Lori- 6
    Sweets- nope

    Haha.. you're not the only one. lol

    I'm happy to report a successful second day!

    Lisa - 2
    Sweets - ZERO!

    Put up my tree instead of eating the sweets soooo

    Samantha 5
    Sweets 0

    I also have to say that while my girls were having dessert my oldest offered me a bit of her cookie which was dipped in chocolate milk and when I told her no thank you she got sad. I had to tell her that I really wanted it but I was full. Which was a lie but I didn't want to have to put a 1 by the sweets.

    Question: with the scoring system we're using if I were to have a sweet at the family Christmas party on December 20th, would my score then become: Brenda 21, Sweets 1?

    Makes you rethink your choices when you gotta give the other team a score, huh? :tongue:

    It's all good though. The purpose of this is to make you aware. If you are planning out to eat something sweet 18 days in advance and worried about giving sweets a 1 you are aware my dear. That's the part that matters, much more than the number.

    I KNOW! I would never have even considered not having sweets at the party, and now I'm sitting here thinking I may not. I'm somewhat hoping I won't even have any at Christmas, and I will just continue on the no sweets trail.

    I'm excited to do my first weigh in that will be completely sweets-free in a long, long time.

    I said the same thing when I was in the grove before Thanksgiving. Then I fell and fell hard. :ohwell: I hope you do it!

    I'm in the same boat...having dinner at Cheesecake Factory on the 23rd and I don't want to give the the sweets a 1. Maybe BF and I can share a slice and I can just have a few bites. Lord knows, I sure don't need a whole slice of that to myself. :laugh:

    Thought I would come on here and just say that in my psychology class today they were selling M&M's for 25 cents and I wanted to so bad then the guy next to me got a dollars worth and told me to give the other 3 packs to my kids. I put them in my purse right away so I wouldn't have to look at them then pulled out a breath mint so I wouldn't be able to smell the chocolate or I would have given in!!!!

    We are going to the movies too. This just might be the first time I have ever went to the movies and didn't have candy with me. Hope I can make it.

    woo hooooo-- coming here to McCrow-- just went to McDonald's to get my daughter a McCafe. Thought briefly about getting one-- a mocha, since coffees aren't on my McList of things I was McCutting out this month.

    But the picture of the McChocolate on the top of the McMocha just looked too McNaughty.

    So I got her the McMocha and drove a bit further down to Dunkin Donuts and got a iced turbo with just cream-- no sugar.

    Woot-- woot-- woot-- you raise me up, people.

    Just have to share...

    My best friend came over last night and gave me my birthday present... a tin of handmade chocolate and peanut butter fancy chocolate candies :noway: I can't lie... I ate one... or two!

    I guess you guys will probably consider me a failure.:ohwell: I suppose I'm doing "far less sweets til Christmas" than none at all...

    Homemade chocolate and peanut butter candies? I would have been hard pressed to stop at one or two. You're staying aware of it-- take from it what positive you can and press on.
