Ok - so tonight's been VERY hard to say "no" to the sweets...I've been VERY good for 1 month and 4 days now, not touching ANY sugar, bread, flour, potatoes, pasta, rice, etc...any "cheats" I may have had was 2 peaches my third week - a few tbsp of sunflower seeds maybe twice and a couple of blueberries here and there - otherwise i've been "perfect"...
And I can not tell you how HARD tonight was!
My parents came into town so we went to the Weber Grill - which I thought would be "easy" right?...well - i had myself a Chicken Breast with Sundried tomatoes and instead of the mashed potatoes I had garlic spinach. And it was YUMMY...but then my fiance had his beer (which looked OH so good...) and then my mom ordered a "trio" dessert (luckily each was very small) - but she had a chocolate cake with hot fudge, key lime pie and apple pie.
I was good and didn't TOUCH any of it (btw, I didn't have any of the bread at the table either...)
THEN we went into the mall and of course we enter in right in front of Cinnabon and like three other dessert type / ice cream parlor stores as well...and of course - to me anyways - it seemed like every few feet was SOME sort of sweet shop.
So we get home and settle in and I'm here on my laptop - and my fiance comes in with his ding dongs and milk!!!
IT'S EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I seriously felt like this would be a worse nightmare than my usual afraid of the dark/monsters nightmares...being SURROUNDED by ALL these sweet shops and not being able to have ONE.
But I was strong.
I didn't have ANY and I am happy that I didn't - I stuck to my
because I knew that if I had given in, I'd have been mad at myself in the morning - but it seriously was VERRRRRRY hard to say no tonight - seriously EVERY time I turned around sugar was calling my name!!!
I know many of you don't like sugar free jello because of the aspartame - but I can't tell you how much I TOTALLY enjoyed my strawberry-banana sugar free 5 calorie jello tonight!!!!
