    Okay guys, I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I'm going to the movies tonight and the only thing that comes to mind to eat there is just loads and loads of sugary sweets. I considered just going in with a pack of nuts etc but I can only find large bags/calorie contents waaaaay to high.
    What would you take to the cinema to munch on that's not bursting with sugar or extra high in calories? I was thinking of just taking in a water bottle but that's no fun when everyone else with you are munching on choc tops (mmmm.....choc tops....)

    It's 2:48ish and I WANT MY CHOCOLATE MINI!!!!!!

    but noooo.... i'm gonna be strong. :sad:

    Honey, to answer your question, I guess you can bring some veggies in, like carrots or even some fruits like berries or something? that way you're munching on something.

    If it was 100% sugar free then that should be fine. I know quite a few people are having sugar free sodas and that's allowed.

    Well this has been a pretty insane week for me.so I have not had time to read the message boards to see this challenge. I've logged my food and weight but no reading of the message boards. Anyways, I have been selling chocolate bars for Little league all week so I lost the no sweets challenge; meaning that I ate one. Personally, I believe I did good. I had three boxes of sixty each candy bars and a box of twenty five chocolate covered almonds and only had one and a half candy bars (and I chose the dark chocolate)

    Let's start hearing some success stories from this week's no sweets/sugar challenge!!

    I'm quite pleased with my results:
    7 January: 154lbs
    14 January: 150.5lbs

    Lost a totaly of 3.5lbs and a few inches!! I know that I've never lost so much weight in the space of a week and I definitely know that it's because I've cut out so much junk!! I did the same amount of exercise that I'd usually do each week but the only difference was the lack of a lot of junk! :happy:

    I'm sure that you guys are weighing in and seeing the benefits of this challenge, so please come in and share your success stories!! :smile:
