OK "Wild Thing" - what are the rules to the No Sweets challenge?

I can't seem to find your rules to this evil challenge of yours. I'm in if they're not too tough. I have to say right off the bat, though, that I need to have some Ovaltine in my milk in the morning because I mix in some fiber and I'll puke otherwise.
 
RE: OK

I believe Miss Lunacat summed it up best:

1. If it's something you might get in response to the phrase "Trick or Treat," don't eat it.

2. If someone in your office says, "Oh just try one. I only bake these once a year," don't eat it.

3. If you salivate at the mere thought if it, don't eat it.

4. If it leaves a sugary film on your teeth, you ate it and need to brush your teeth and not eat it again.

5. If it's something you are confronted with everyday at work or at home, don't eat it...it will still be there in July!

6. You're allowed to eat birthday cake for the birthday of a loved one (NOT that guy you like in your office - he doesn't count as a loved one:p )

Basically, baked goods, cookies, candy, refined sugars is what we're looking at here. Fruit is fine, IMO things like low fat or fat free yogurt are find, as they are basically healthy. Some people have stated that they will continue to drink their diet sodas.

Does that help?
 
RE: OK

haha! Those rules are great! *Still thinking about it* Hey, one question...what if we cheat? And, I also need some ways to deal with temptation. My family definitely won't get rid of their ice cream, cookies, cake, etc. so I'll have those in my face every time I open the fridge. I have absolutely no willpower when it comes to sweets.
 
RE: OK

My punishment will be to write Big Butt (Charlotte's phrase for staying away from sweets) on the blackboard 50 times.
 
RE: OK

Of course you have willpower. And this is your test of that willpower. If you cheat, you cheat. Just get right back on the wagon and don't let one little cheat make you say "oh man, that's it, I ate one cookie, so I might as well eat the rest of the bag and this cake too!";)

If you cheat, report it on your check in and we promise we won't be TOO hard on you. Well except Suzanne, making you write lines:p

Ok 20 times I'm tired!!!! That's cause I had ice cream today. I know it is still May, but I'm doing it to know how it would feel to write it 50 times (I'm tired with 20 already lol). I have to say that we should do a thing like this every month but having a cheat day at least a day or two a month. With a challenge like that and the monthly check in that'll put me in super duper shape for fall and winter.
 
RE: OK

I'm not a drinker anyway, but my brother's wedding is this month. I gotta have at least a glass of wine or champagne (and a tiny bit of cake for sure).
 
RE: OK
