    Smartest snail doesnt want to go to Michigan...

    by the hour 1 week ago

    Ok, this is gonna be harder than I anticipated. Yesterday I broke down and ate a peanut butter cup. So, instead of by the day, I see Im going to have to do this by the hour. Each hour passed is an hour I made it.
    As I sit here at my desk working, Im REALLY surprised I havent decided to go by the “ten minutes” mark.

    halloween 2 weeks ago

    every day of the year for me. I was so proud of myself and then a small treat turned into an everyday occurance and now I am sugar’s best friend. My mood swings and fatigue have been terrible. I have no one to blame but myself, so, here we go again.

    Damn those headaches the first 2 weeks suck.



    Ahhh! 4 weeks ago

    I’m not doing so well with this goal… I baked chocolate chip cookies yesterday. At least I shared (the calories) with others. haha



    The start of changes 1 month ago

    Ok, I’ll divide my goal into 2 phases:
    Phase 1: I’ll stop drinking soft drinks with high sugar level and stop eating the sweet stuff – cakes, sweets and so on. The products that are BASED on sugar.
    Phase 2: I’ll try to choose products without sugar (This may be a little problematic here in Latvia…) and restric use of sugar in home-made food products.

    Well, I should now start to fulfill my goal… After few weeks I will be able to make a conclusion about this.

    Update: Phase 1 Completed!

    Back on track 3 months ago

    I’ve finally gone my first full day without sugar. I expect to get the moodiness and headache tomorrow.



    I'm not convinced I can do this 4 months ago

    But I’m going to try again. Gearing up now…



    Untitled 5 months ago

    I’m finally realizing the extent of my current sugar situation, I’ll become convinced that I’m a sugar addict and get ready to abstain, then the little voice in the back of my head will say, “Hey! No way that’s true! Let’s go get some ice cream!” and as that’s more desirable than admitting my weakness, off I’ll go. I’ve given up sugar before, but fell off the wagon over the holiday season. I’m ready to detox again, but I realize that I will never be able to completely give up sugar… I love it far too much.



    I am beating it :P 6 months ago

    For the last few days, I’ve only had sugar from my cereal, vitamin water, fruits, and other things along those lines. I’ve eliminated junk food from my diet.

    The one thing I allow myself is 70-80% dark chocolate…and I eat very little of it.

    I’m very proud of myself for avoiding all of the leftover Christmas cookies, m&m’s, doughnuts that fellow co-workers offer, and other things along those lines. It’s becoming easier and easier…AND…my skin is looking way better. I don’t get stomach aches anymore. :)
