SUGAR-FREE

I've been doing a sugar-free challenge with my mom, Sophi and a few other women and we don't eat sugar Sunday through Friday and on Saturday we get a free day and can eat as much sugar as we want. What keeps us going and diligent is we have to report to everyone in the group each night and it's not fun to confess that you cheated and when you see that everyone else is sugar-free you think, I can do this! It is very hard, some days are harder than others but when we started this challenge and I was not eating things that were presented to me I realized how much sugar we actually eat! It has been especially difficult around this Halloween time when I have buckets of yummy candy that I want to eat and I know where it is hiding! :) Tonight I watched a movie "Hotel for Dogs" with my kids in my bed and I put our two bowls of candy in front of us and we just ate and ate until we were sick! I also ate a sugar cookie earlier in the day that I had been saving in my freezer! Oh and later tonight after the kids went to bed Jake and I watched a movie "The Proposal" and I broke open the box of Dark Chocolate Raisinets and ate half the box! What a FUN, sugar filled, yummy day!
