No Sweets Check-In - June 24, 2005

[allwildgirl]

Hey chicks!

A week today, we'll all be stuffing our faces with sweets! Well, okay, maybe we won't, maybe just I will

The weekend is here. It's usually harder for me, because I have more access to food that I shouldn't be eating.

How are y'all doing today?

 

[Lunacat]

Doin' fine and dandy! I'm chugging the water today and no one brought any sweet stuff to work. However, last night the XSO brought home cheescake ice cream (didn't have any) and dark potato chips (had a few).

You can resist this weekend, Shelley! I know you can!

Dark potato chips? 'splain please.

 

[Lunacat]

They're overcooked so they're nearly burnt. Man, oh man, they are deee-licious! :9

 

[allwildgirl]

Ooooooooooooh... YUM! Too bad I'm giving up salty snacks for July, or I could try some on the road trip.

 

[Lunacat]

Are you sure you don't want me to bring a bag? I could wave them in front of you and test your resolve. }(

ETA: The July challenge seems to be no-salt. That seems even harder than no-sweets!

 

[luvtorun]

Doing fine so far today. Happily chugging a SF cherry limeade. No sweets, no caffine this this afternoon. What is this about no salty food for July?? Did I miss something. I wish I'd missed it today!! That one will be tough!!

Hello everybody! I'm back!!!!!!! LOL! omg this week has been awful diet wise and I only managed to workout one day. But I'm not waiting till Monday to get back on the challenge. I'm doing KPC today (Low Max blasts + PLB tomorrow and Low Max on Sunday) and I've been eating well.

I hope you all have a great weekend.

Yesterday I thought I had it made,and even wrote to all of you saying I was sugarless. Well after that I was so darn depressed about my foot that I grabbed a doughnut. I felt so guilty. I said to myself that I was going to have to confess this to all of you. but I have resisted those doughnuts today. They were staring at me for bkf, but I chose the watermelon.

I'm going to a wedding tonight, so I know I will be hit up for temptation. They are having the dinner at a steak house and that is all well. I just have to get out of dodge when it comes cake time. This foot is killing my will power.

I'll let you know after the wedding how the sugar deal went

Hang in there Kim. Just remember all of us rooting for you. We will all have you on our minds tonight willing you to stay away from the cake!!

 

[Lunacat]

Kim,

Don't beat yourself up too much about the donut. At least you didn't indulge for breakfast, right? As for tonight at dinner, surreptitiously rub your foot under the table when the cake comes out. Remind yourself of why you are doing the challenge and how much better you'll feel if you don't have the cake!

Thanks Lunacat and jane, I appreciate that support. I am so glad I have all of you to turn to.

And yes I've got to try the foot rub. He!He!

Went to the wedding tonight and it was very pretty. My cousin and her husband drove away in some old car. It had a top, where the driver was and 2 could sit in the back. They rode in the very back that didn't have a top. I have no idea what kind of car it is.

Everyone left and met at this restuarant, where they had tables with candlelight and a dance floor. Bummer! I couldn't do that either.But the best part of the night is I didn't have any cake. Hooray! My SIL gave me the strawberries that had beside the cake. So I got the healthiest part of the cake.

I HAD THEM IN MY HOT LITTLE HANDS!!!

Walgreen's had Hershey's Kisses - Buy one get one free. The filled kind! You know....caramel filled, vanilla creme filled, strawberry creme filled, etc, etc, etc. They even had dark chocolate kisses. My daughter told me to buy them and save them till July. I read the back of the bag and saw that for 8 lousy kisses, it's 180 calories (the caramel filled kind).

I PUT THEM DOWN!!!

Then I went to look for my favorite trail mix and they were OUT!

I took this as some kind of supernatural sign (or Shelley's ghost) so I grabbed an Arizona Diet Green Tea and an Oxygen magazine and high-tailed it out of there! Whew, another day under my belt!!

Don't know that I could have resisted that.

Way to go Angie. You are a stronger woman that I am. Dark chocolate, buy one get one free. I'm glad there isn't a Walgreen's around here.

No sweets on Friday and I went out to eat. That isn't unusual though. I rarely if ever get restaurant desserts because I am always so full from the meal.
