    I'll be giving up soda and sweets. Hoping to make this change more permanent than one week though! ><
    I went to the kitchen last night and ate 2 hand fulls of peanut m&m's before I even knew what I was doing! I failed this one! UGH!!!!

    Don't quit! Just start again right now :smile: Now you know to watch yourself more closely. :wink:

    Done good so far today! :embarassed:

    ICE CREAM. The greatest invention known to man. I have a love/hate relationship with it. I love to eat it, and hate myself after I've finished a pint (by myself, yikes)!

    My favorite flavors: Ben & Jerry's Phish Food, and Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie.
    So good, and so so so bad.

    I hereby give up ice cream for this challenge. :(

    Let's stay strong, friends!

    Aloha!

    I gave up my diet coke addiction last year, after 3 months I cracked on a super hot day and got a maccas coke, I had one sip and threw it out, yuck! now I cant stand the taste, I drink water. ;) I wonder if that would work for chocolate as well?

    How is everyone going with their challenge? I had 2 doritos without thinking, so I wont be 100% successful.

    Doing well on my no chocolate challenge, but I was craving it this morning. I normally have a mini protein bar in the afternoon, and they are chocolate, so not sure if im going to skip them this week or still have them as they are chocolate but they arnt, if you get what I mean.

    I think protein bars should get a pass if they're part of your regular schedule. I mean, they're not SWEETS, and you don't want to mess up your calorie allocations. We're behind you whichever way you rule though :)

    Ugh, just realized some "poison" snuck onto the grocery cart today. But I didn't eat it!
    Ben, Jerry, you'll just have to wait another week or more for our next date.

    Stay strong ladies!

    Staying on my no fast food plan this week.

    Also steering clear of diet sodas this week, though that wasn't part of my challenge. I'm just taking a break from the carbonation as I try increase my fluids to a minimum of 8 cups a day. It's a little easier to chug down 8 ounces of Crystal Light than it is 8 ounces of soda pop.

    A little late, but I guess I'll just go with it! Um... I think I'll give up alcohol for the remainder of the week. I drunk a lot over the holidays and find myself only stopping when the wine runs out!

    AH! I caved last night! I was craving chocolate all day and when I finally got home from work, I had a few chocolate chips. Not very many, but I definitely gave into my craving! Oh well, No chocolate the rest of the week (the whole 3 days!) for me!
