UUUGGHHH....you have to be kidding me...I have not eaten since 2 o'clock today...I had to be somewhere tonight....might I add...somewhere WITHOUT food (but didn't know ahead of time)...so of course it is almost 11 pm and I am STARVING...and you better believe I'm not going to NOT get a point...soooo I guess no food tonight...probably not the smartest idea...but hey...It taught me to start keeping a snack with me at all times!
Alright...just one more thing...if you must know...this has been the hardest evening I've had...stupid day 4...I'm glad your almost over.
Hoping your day was better then mine~
Sweet dreams :)

Okay, I have 3 minutes before midnight and my personal goal! Sorry you were starving! You know you get 1 free point per category per week without losing a point? So you can choose to eat after 8, forget the exercise or have a soda one time and still get all your points. I hope you have a better day tomorrow: day 5 here we come.
I think I'm past the anger and into denial....I'm waiting for acceptance and trying to decide what night to have my wine! WooHoo. Good night....must go wash my face.
Hey Laura...Yah I know about the free point...but I feel like I might want to use those on the weekend and I also feel like if I start using those now on day 4...It might become a habit :)
Stock your purse with "bars"-the Lara bar, balance bars, Atkins bars...that is what I do so if I am out and it is lunch time....you don't have to worry! This wknd we have one of the end of the year soccer parties (this one and then one again next weekend)-of course it is at the pizza buffet. I have no willpower so will eat everything-so instead I will just have a bar...makes it so much easier!
Hi Ladies, this is Betsy, the crazy friend who passed this challenge on to Laura N. I too had a hard day 4! Made it through the day with no problem but my PMS caught up to me after the girls went to bed. So i lost both my no sweets point and my after 8 points! Its hard to watch Grey's and Private practice without my sweets. I am over it now, i figure with all the fruits and veggies and water maybe it will all cancel out! Other than that i have to say things are going really well. I love the journal and the positive praise goals and i have been much more productive this week. All in all i am definetely on a better road than i have been in a while. Just a few foodie tips... i have been taking mandarin oranges with me as snack and a fruit, they are in season and yummy. I started to buy the yoplait yogurts today that have all the great flavors, but there is so much junk in them. Then i remembered how yummy plain greek yogurt with a honey drizzle is. I think honey is allowed? its natural so im saying it is allowed! sprinkle with nuts or granola too. Im proud of everyone for taking part in this, every little change matters.
Well....day four was tuff for me too. I also had a very crazy day and so darn busy. I was so worn out my son looked and me and said you look so tired. Really after spending most of the day at a doctors office with screaming child and then you behind the wheel for the 4th time I don't look like I just stepped out of a spa. lol I was so happy when I said "go to bed" I was even happier that I started my day at the gym, cause it would have never happened.
Oh the brighter side, I am really loving this. When I normally would be eating after 8 to enjoy my shows I am NOT..(yes and I am shouting that,,and with joy) I think I might have lost some weight but to afraid to get on scale to be sad it really didn't happen. Gee it is only day 4. But clothes feel a little better. Once I go to the bathroom from all that water ...hahaha
I did realize I didn't like to count my glasses of water so I wanted to share with you what I started. I have a Brita water jug. I fill that up, it is over the 48oz but I do drink it all. I had often filled a glass and then walked away. To only find the glass there later. So now since I started this. I fill and drink, when water is gone from jug I am done. My husband informed me I was drinking a gallon and half a day. Wow! On personally note, no wonder my pee looks is water..hahaha
I am a chocolate person and have yet to crave any!! Yea!! My son home from school today even put a Large chocolate bar on counter, nope don't want that! Jen I agree with you if I cheat then I will cheat again. I have a birthday coming up during all this....no sweets here.
Good luck to all...this is great. I love the reading and journal part the best. Some deep stuff has come out of me. Yea!! Clean it out! Go back to the word and stay daily. I have noticed that going thru the adoption/CPS really changed a lot of normal stuff for me. I'm coming back...yes!
Blessings all!!!
Yeah...Betsys on here to! :) Thank you, thank you, thank you for sending Laura the email in the first place!
I just absolutely LOVE that you all have been reading and commenting on my blog...my love tank is starting to get fuller and fuller from all you little cutie bugs!
Is that your praise and compliment Jen, your love tank is fuller now.
Even though I have been sick the last couple days and have taken the last two days to not exercise (using 2 sick days) I feel like I am getting back into this. I am missing the sweets, I won't lie, but it is getting easier. Thanks for the tip of hot milk and a tea bag, I am going to try it.
I feel blessed and fortunate to wind up in the same class as you ladies in school this year! My love tank is over flowing.
