  • Way to go, Brenda. You are an inspiration. :flowerforyou:
  • You're not alone. I have IBS (irritable bowl syndrome) and I thought with exercising daily, drinking 5-8 glasses of water a day, and getting plenty of fiber, that I might be more regular but I'm not. =( I was thinking of adding prunes to my diet to see if that helps any.
  • Well said. I have set backs, I feel sorry for myself, etc at times but I try to remind myself during those times that I am doing good for someone who hasn't exercised in......well rarely ever in my entire life ( I'm 47) and that I just started.

The only thing I can come up with is that sugar that is natural in foods does not count toward your daily intake. However, I don't know why the track…
  • Good for you!! :flowerforyou: I know you will be proud of yourself for resisting.
  • If it were me I'd have a really small piece and try to estimate the calories, etc. and get back at it tomorrow with a little extra exercise to help make up for it. I know from experience if you continue to deny yourself even the smallest indulgence, you will end up splurging later on. I've been doing this since Saturday…
  • Hi, Julie. Thanks. =) I know what you mean, I was amazed to find out the things I thought were healthy sometimes aren't.
