Hello everyone and HAPPY FRIDAY!! :D
Today is my 8th day of no sweets and SO FAR SO GOOD!! :) I even went to the grocery story this morning and walked RIGHT THROUGH the bakery section...everything smelled insanely delish, but NOPE NOPE NOPE....I didn't even WANT to have a donut....

Weekends were normally my worst times to 'go crazy' with junk food...but I feel so motivated and excited that I've made it this long w/out sweets, that there is NO WAY I'm breaking my streak!! :D

Have a fab day everyone!!!!

    Thank you for the encouragement!!! I'm SUCH a sweets addict....and often would go CRAZY with them, even after telling myself to only have a 'little nibble' of something....that doesn't work for me...so, I'm doing one month NO sweets, to show myself I can SURVIVE without them...ahha....:)

    Yes! Definitely kudos to you!! I love sweets. I'd be a goner the same day I vowed to not eat them...I'd probably be eating candy in the same breath, lol. Great job! Especially at the movies!!

    bahh Tara you are too funny....well I just consider movie popcorn as 'junk food' because I always get it DRENCHED in butter when I get it there....but trust me, I don't put it in the 'sweets' category....and have had some of the 94% fat free, 15 calories/cup stuff recently...delish! :D

    Mmm, I love air popped popcorn - one of my indulgences. Are you off all sweets or just processed sugar? Are you still eating fruit? Best of luck!

    :D Yes, I am still eating fruit....My main goal for this 'month challenge' I put myself on, is to just STAY AWAY from the sweets I normally OVER-EAT...such as:
    DONUTS
    COOKIES
    CHOCOLATE, CHOCOLATE, MORE CHOCOLATE
    CANDY
    ETC.....
    :) I've been enjoying fruits though!! Yumm...watermelon is delish!!
