    Since readjusting goals I have slowed my weight loss down to a more acceptable rate. I lost .3 lbs yesterday bringing my total loss for April to 4 lbs.

    I have managed to pretty much stick to my original goals. What I have failed at is sugar. I still crave it from time to time and have given in to it this weekend. It doesn't seem to be impeding my weight loss but I still would like to come to a point where I don't give into my cravings.

    Happy Sunday All!

    Edited for punctuation.

    I'm in! Even though this is my busiest month ever at work:) No sugar no problem. It's my Saturday "beer" day that will be the biggest challenge!

    The bad news so far...a French vanilla ice cream and maple syrup binge of such heroic proportions that it's amazing I didn't need insulin. The good news...lots of daily exercise-vigorous cross country hiking, resistance training, spinning and Stair Master. I've actually lost a pound in the last few days.

    Sugar makes me happy -- saw that on a sweatshirt once, but it was a kids' size small. I eat sugar. I don't like artificial sweeteners. This morning I had a little less than a tablespoon of powdered sugar on my 2 pancakes with 1 tsp of butter and it was really good.

    I'm losing fine eating sugar.

    I'm at a stand still but I have had the biggest appetite this week. I know what it is. That time of the month...sorry guys. So I'm going to have to adjust calories and increase exercise for this week. I won't give up though. I had a major sweet tooth lately. I will try to not have anything sweet. It just triggers cravings for more when I do. Wish u all a good week.

    Day 8 and doing well! Haven't fallen off the wagon yet! Son had another Dr appointment today(he is 19 and losing his transplanted kidney) so a little bit of stress and worry going on but I'm not letting ANYTHING get in my way. By the way, did I tell you my biggest motivator in losing weight is so I can qualify to be his donor? What better motivation do I need, right?

    How is everyone else doing? Good, I hope! Tomorrow is hump day!

    Edited to say I discovered lemon cucumber water and it is fabulous!

    I've lost 5 x 2 so far this month. 5x5 is a big challenge... I'll have to start working out to get there, but it's possible if I really bust my butt.

    Add me as a friend if you want to help motivate me to lose 5x5 this month!
