No Sweets checkin 6/11/05

How is everybody today? I have had a good eating day. I had raisin Bran this morning and some watermelon. Had a peanut butter sandwich on SF bread with grapes and yogurt for lunch.

I think today was better than yesterday as far as food and my emotional being. There is always a new day.

I cleaned my MIL's house today (and it's not THE messiest house ever, but it's always a disaster). Anyway, it's always full of junk food too, but I am so proud that I managed to resist. All of the half rotten food we ended up throwing away, along with the heat, probably helped with that. x( :7
She has no produce that isn't rotten of in jello cups, so I had some frozen berries and some nuts from her trailmix. I've never been so thankful to come home to a clean house!

oh my gosh, oh my gosh.... I just sit down to check the boards and saw "no sweets check in" and .... oh my gosh... my brother and SIL came up with the kids for a cookout and she brought brownies. I ate one and didn't think one thing about it until I sit down here. What is wrong with my brain!!!! I think I am suffering from "lack of sugar". I cannot believe I did this and had no conscious thought of it while I was doing it. :(
 
I'm still on track although I did have a few bites of my daughter's graduation cake last night. It wasn't very good at all but I couldn't refuse on her latest, greatest milestone. I've had a couple of cravings for chocolate today but haven't given in.

Stay strong everybody! We're almost halfway thru the month!!

I had a few pieces of extra sharp cheddar cheese and it tasted like candy to me!! What is going on with my taste buds? The family ate a row of Hershey's pot of gold turtles and I barely looked at them.

This challenge has been so good for me! I never paid attention to how many extra calories I consumed with "just one"!!
 
~~ Lunacat ~~~ at least you can just be boring... I think senility is settling in here... I still can't believe I ate that brownie and didn't think about the sweet challenge one time.
 
Well, I'm happy to say I didn't consume any sweets today, even though I baked a banana cake for my daughter and her friend this afternoon. I looked at it, smelled it and didn't eat it. I also didn't eat any of the cookies, though I was sorely tempted.

I did, however, have a few (maybe 6 or 7) Tostitos tortilla chips - and NOT the baked kind.
 
Uh, I was cleaning up and DD had a big bag of M&M's sitting on the rocking chair. Bag looked full, but when I grabbed it to grab...let's say 5 or so, the bag was just full of air...EMPTY! HA-HA! I didn't need them anyways. See, that is why I can't have treats in my house. Bad, bad, bad! DD bought them with her own money. }(

I had another slip up tonight by eating DQ. I don't know where my willpower is. It's not that bad but I really wish I could have chose something different. My friend needed someone to talk to so we took a drive and ended up at DQ. The other part of my day has been great. So tomorrow I will try a little harder on those temptations. But the good thing is I haven't had any soda since this challenge started. Even though that wasn't one of the nono's I made that my own personal challenge.

Better luck tomorrow I say.
