    Dinner eaten, so I am claiming the day

    Sweets NADA!

    Lori- I really like your thought about hot cocoa. Not sure if that's because it would justify it for me or what, but I have to agree with you.:wink: I don't really crave it -or even think about it- but it would certainly be a nice once in a rare while change from my afternoon tea.

    Carleen- way to hang tough girl. Some days are like that. What you have to remind yourself is that you won't really feel any better after you eat the junk. Actually it will be worse, cause you'll be upset you did it.

    I have read a few times in the past few days people mentioning hot chocolate. I've had it at a few freezing cold soccer games and never thought of it as a sweet. Ooops, my bad if it was one. Truly, I never even considered it to be one.

    Hot chocolate is not something I have often, it's not something I crave, it's not something I would abuse. Therefore, I'm not counting it. For me a successful day is no desserts, cookies, cakes, pies, chocolate, candy or ice cream. THOSE things are the things are addictive to me- those are the ones that I'm winning against.

    Well, actually-- this may sound silly-- but I rather feel that way about the Crunch n' Munch we bought at Wal-Mart today-- hubs and I were walking around Wal-Mart and bought a box for the two younger boys, and I had some. But, this really isn't something I thought of when I did the no-sweets challenge-- I can walk away from it in a heartbeat.

    It's the cakes, candies, chocolates, pies-- that stuff that kills me-- so, I'm still claiming it as a victory--

    Heading to run in a bit-- and am so tired-- hormones all flooey lately-- lovely being mid-40s, lemme tell ya--

    I just did the craziest thing. My sister was bringing me donuts from Tim Horton's, and I called her back, and told her not to bring them. I really wanted those donuts. :ohwell: I plan on having a Blizzard on Friday, and I want to enjoy it relatively guilt-free...if I ate the donuts tonight, I wouldn't be able to have a treat on Friday and feel ok about it.

    And I already claimed today, so whatcha gonna do? :)

    BrendaLee - great job!!!

    Well my kids and dh made rosette cookies tonight and I just ate one, which lead to two and then three and more. I enjoy the first two and not sure why I kept eating but I did. When I stopped at 7, I just shook my head and thought why????

    I should have clarified by my earlier post was as of last night. I don't like to post too early in the day just in case I have a slip up at night.

    So, calling it a day...

    Lori, I am going to start baking Friday and dreading it. Luckily I have 10 of Emmy's people plus all the neighbors so it won't stick around in my house for long.

    I am experiencing something I have never experienced before. I've made dozens of cookies- 4 different kinds, 2 bags of pretzel/kiss/m&m things. Havent had one little bite or lick and yet I still feel about half gross..... from SMELLING it.

    For real! I always thought I felt this way when baking because I eat the whole time. I'm not even hungry, just from smelling it bake. I won't pretend at first it didn't get to me a bit, it did, but right now, I wouldn't want any even if I could have some.

    The thought of making dinner is making me sick. Blah!

    Me too! I felt sort of gross at the gym today, but once I got moving got past it. That's all I need. I already ate extra vitamin C. :happy:

    I'm definitely having a candy cane blizzard thing on Christmas Eve, but not until then! I had another wonderful day! Got my haircut and normally I would go and get a starbucks and walk the mall but instead I powerwalked a lap and then started trying on tons of jeans... I went to 3 different stores and tried stuff on.. so I range from a size 6 at express a size 7 at Charlotte Russe, and a size 8 at American Eagle, well I could get in a size 6 but theres a bit of muffin top so not going there yet. All in all I bought a pair of jeans at American Eagle since they had a wash AND fit that I liked... I have wide hips and a booty as well as large muscular thighs so skinny or boot cut jeans just make me look funny, I like a bit of a flare but Express's flare is too big lol American eagle was just right! I'm so glad I invested the time to go to a few different places and really focus on finding something I liked, rather than browsing with a coffee in my hand. Plus this motivated me to stay on track so I can get even smaller! I also stopped by Victoria Secret and got a little somethin somethin for my hubby when he comes home =) Also very motivating to keep me on track lol

    I hope everyone has a great day tomorrow ladies!

    Hey Sweeties!

    Glad to see us all doing so well...

    Day 13 in the bag for me! I'm so glad I started this...way for me to prove myself wrong, 'cause I never thought I could (or would want to) give up my sweets. Now, I'd be lying if I said I would never eat them again -a life without cheesecake is my version of hell- but I am so much more aware of it.

    That said, 15 days to Cheesecake Factory!

    Well, I have to give back a sweet-- had some nice family time tonight. Kids baked a cheesecake, so I had a small piece. It was after my run, so I'm cool with it-- whaddyagonnado? Calories are still good today and I had a strong run. It is what it is, I guess--

    So, Marla 11
