Oh the food I make for the kiddos smells sssoooo good, its hard not to taste it! I've been good though, I haven't cheated at all...not even once did I taste, try, dapple, or dip. Not even when Todd was sitting on the couch last night eating a bowl of candy...butthead. I even sorted the kids' candy last night and I didn't eat a thing, woo hoo...normally I so would have!! I actually look forward to the food I'm eating now, its good, granted I probably don't eat as much as I would've before, but that's a good thing. Learn self control, practice what you preach...I always tell my girls, 'just because its good doesn't mean you have to eat it all, eat slowly, you can always save it for later or we'll make it again' I really should listen to myself sometimes...
I've stopped drinking coffee...wait...I think Hell just froze over...I realized how much sugar I was taking in daily drinking it all day long and started thinking whoops! Not much different from when I quit drinking soda, guess my love of the drink blinded me:) I went down to one coffee a day an drank water the rest of the day and to my amazement I had more energy, well duh, no sugar crash. Now as of 4 days ago I am no longer drinking coffee, just water...my energy is slowly going back up after getting used to the shock of no caffeine;) Even though I love food and love coffee, too much of something never turns out positve, I'm doing this for myself, so I can feel good in my own body, and I am feeling confident that I can reach my goal.
go jen!
