My sugar fast is going pretty well. Last night I was kinda feeling the pain as we went to a wedding reception with mostly just desserts. Really good ones too like cheesecake and something that looked very rich and chocolatey. But then we went to Fatburger for dinner. :)
So, the sugar fast thing isn't really making me eat fewer calories necessarily. But sometimes I think it does. Mostly because I tend to eat sweet things even when I'm full. I can't really do that with nonsweet things or I just feel gross. And I'm not eating Fatburger everyday.
I was proud of myself for not eating the Mother's Day cookies today either. That would have been an easy one to justify. I gave them to my husband. I find it easier to stick with someting like this when it's for a short amount of time.
I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to do once I end this fast. It has helped me realize that I don't need a treat every single day and that's good. It also has helped me be more mindful about the nutritional value of what I eat. I've been trying to make sure that the things I'm eating have some. I will probably be joining Weight Watchers with my sister this week. I think it might help me to have another way to report my progress and get support. We'll see...

hey I have all the books. Let me know if you join. It would be nice to have someone to do it with. My mom and I were going to do it together and then she sort of backed out. I need to follow some kind of plan. I ate my cookies. I just ordered the books for the at home program which you can buy at the place in redmond. Don't order them online unless you like spending 10 extra dollars like I do. :) It is 119 I think for the at home program, no meetings. You just follow it on your own. Or you can do the online version and then you get everything you would, but it is online. I am a, have to have books and materials in my face person. Plus the internet is not always reliable. Great job this weekend! I dunno if I could go without sweets. We will see. I just started meds for ADHD and I had a good day without feeling like I wanted to eat all the time. it was like an impulse almost before. but because I did not need something in my mouth all day to keep me from be restless or hyper it went really well. I actually had the opposit reaction and felt like not eating. I cut the bun out of the chicken BBQ sandwhich's we had for mothers day. I usually don't like buns anyway. Keep me posted! Great Job this week!
