Welcome-- time to rethink-- you don't need chocolate every day-- you want it every day-- big difference--I am new to this program so I will do this for my first goal. I always think i need chocolate everyday but I like a challenge.
Be strong-- you can do it.0 -
Did bad again yesterday, but today is another day and I am not going to give in to sweets today. My 12 year old asked me to bake her a pumpkin pie, so i did..... Then my 14 and 5 year old said they want pie too but they hate pumpkin pie. So, I made them a chocolate cream pie. Need i say more? :ohwell:
First thing this morning i took both pies out to my husbands beer fridge in the garage so i will stay out of them. I will do good today!!0 -
Yeah I did it yesterday will do good today0

good morning, my friends--
Sending you all positive vibes today-- with major kudos to Lori for her example to us all of strength under fire-- her life is no less stressful than all of ours, no less goodies tempting her, but she has abstained--
Keep her in mind today, folks, when faced with that pumpkin pie, donuts at the office, leftover ice cream little junior didn't eat, et cetera-- let's be strong this day, my friends--0 -
So far, so good.
And since I went and got a sandwich to replace the salad I left at home for lunch to eat with my soup, I won't be hungry and get tempted.
Good thoughts to you all today...

Ahh, shucks Marla! Thanks
Yep, day 16, still trudging along. Still have 18 pounds of Halloween candy in the house. The kids are allowed 4 pieces a day. Even with 4 kids, it's going to be around a long time! I put it under a shelf on the floor of the food closet, I don't even really see it.
Made a Halloween cake for the kiddos Friday. Nothing. My son's birthday was Monday, didn't eat his cake either. Did dishes and pretended I didn't know what they were doing while they ate it and ice cream. LOL. Whatever works.
I'm not knocking it, I think I like it. I finally hit normal BMI today and I've been hanging out almost there for a LONG time. I mean LONG. Did I say LONG?0 -

Just blew it....
Went to WHole Foods to pick up some tea and saw this yummy brownie, cookie thing staring me down. I thought it couldn't be too bad since it was Whole Foods, but boy was I wrong.
It was ooey gooey, chocolate, caramel, cookie delight! Scrumptious!
Have to pay for it tonight with a kick @ss workout and very little to eat!!0 -
I am staying away from thsi thread because as soon as I document I have had no sweets all day, I run find the candy from Halloween:noway:
I have done well today and promised myself NO candy after posting:laugh:0 -
I found myself in quite a pickle earlier-- Caleb brought me a mini Hershey bar that he found in Hope's bag, and asked me to open it.
Chocolate in my grubby mitts for a one year old who won't notice if I eat half of it? Hmmmm-- what to do?
Thought of my compatriots, and abstained-- woo-hooooooooo--
Thanks, friends!!0 -
You ARE a strong women.... lol!0

9 pm and I have survived Day 1...yay me!0

I was doing soooo well. I actually made it nine days and then was feeling down and caved. I had a little of the halloween candy and it tasted gross! After nine day of no sugar it really does not taste good anymore so remind me of that next time I am feeling weak. I am jumping right back on the wagon!

I had no idea how hard this no sweets thing was going to be. I am so stuck in this pattern of eating that i can eat sweets and not even realize it until i go to record my food. This no sweets has really opened my eyes to what im eating. :noway:0

Yep-- it is eye opening what we pop into our mouths mindlessly--
we've had challenges in the black thread to also log every morsel, every lick of a spoon, every bite of a kid's leftover sandwich-- everything-- if you can't log it, then don't eat it-- those challenges have helped me so much, too, to eliminate the mindless food popping.
I think I may be in need of that one, too-- I've been licking a few too many spoons again-- always seems to happen cyclically, when I'm already bloating beyond belief-- like now.
take captive every morsel today, skrumm-- nothing mindless.0 -
Thank you for the words of wisdom.... I shall account for every bite.
I will teach this old dog new tricks! lol!0 -
Okay-- pretty quiet in here-- (get it? Crickets? nothing but cricket noise? Get it-- oh, never mind)
Where are all my sweet free friends?
Hanging tough, I trust--
nothing for me yesterday-- woot--
Have a great day-- be strong-- no sweets!!!

I am new in this group but I am so in this!!!! I am a huge sweet eater and trying hard to avoid them, that and soda!!! I haven't had a soda in 4 days which is huge for me, so proud. But I got up this morning and my tummy looks like it is flatter :happy: !!! Could I be doing this right after all these years ?!?
