Ms Elizabeth's Journal, 15 January 2017

I face planted today in the middle of my triumphant "I've got this march". Not literally which is lucky but random sweet things still seemed to be shoved into my mouth. I blame my inner fat chick. And chocolate muffins, and cinnamon buns, and frosted chocolate cup cakes.. and zebra cakes, and tiny children that only take a bite of something and then hand it to me and say. I'm done. All that, and needy children, and 6 hours of sleep is a bad combination. It's like asking an alcoholic to set up a wine cellar.

Tomorrow is another day and today I have announced my pie hole to be officially shut. I kind of wonder if I tried a sugar fast how far I would get. Could I go a week without sugar? How badly would I whine? How many family members would be permanently scared? I know I can do it. I have done it. I just haven't done it in a very long time. Then again declaring today is the day almost definitely means failure. Then again.. there is only 2 hours before bedtime. As long as I don't start sleep walking I could make it through these next two hours....

I've noticed that many of your posts report self-sabotage with super -sweet items like candy bars and cupcakes and such. Maybe you could make some positive changes like replacing those sweets with ones like animal crackers or graham crackers which will still satisfy a craving for something sweet but aren't as tempting or calorie laden as the others. Sometimes just turning down your "sweet-o-meter" is a good place to start. (Other choices are a good, sweet apple like a pink lady or some chewing gum like Wrigley Extra in dessert flavors like chocolate mint ice cream or key lime pie and lemon bar).
