So Long Sweets!


I have decided that I have been enjoying far too much of the "sweet stuff" in life and it is time to cut back. I have done this, might I add successfully, a couple of other times in my life for extended periods of time. I know it sounds cliche, but there really is a profound difference in how I feel and my energy levels, not too mention the pleasant side effect of fitting into my jeans comfortably. So I shall once again swear off the sweets for a while. This is not too say that an occasional (and yes I mean very occasional) special day that calls for a bite or two of a delectable dessert will be allowed, but I will exercise my self control and I'm sure Clint will be right there reminding me of my commitment as well. In addition...I have chosen to make my goal known to the world so as to create a little more accountability to people outside of well...myself. SO, this is it. I will be a changed woman, again!

Umm...yeah....seeing as I am sitting here eating peanut M&M's as I read your post...umm, maybe I should join you! Yeah right...not a chance! I have always heard ice cream makes good breastmilk:) This is my excuse for the next year!

That is so good. I should do the same and not only for my waste line but for my teeth. You know. Anyways...I am honestly enjoying the benefits of breast feeding and enjoying my temporarily easy weight loss. I know...it won't last. But hey...some day I will be stronger (hopefully) and cut it out more too. Thanks for being a good example.

Sugar is my hardest thing to resist...hands down...I tell myself everyday that I will stop eating sweets. But it never last. I need to try harder.

I tried to follow your example and it only lasted about 3 days, I am going to try again though, I have to prove to myself that I can do it! On a totally different note, where do you get the clips for the little girl bows you made for McKenzie? That is one of my new hobbies and I CANNOT find any! It is getting a little frustrating, I have a ton of bows done and nothing to put them on.
