The past two weeks have been so bad for me. I made brownies on Tuesday two weeks ago for the kids I was watching and it's been all downhill from there. The Fourth of July was absolutely no help in starting out week number two with its grilled burgers and homemade gelato.
And leftover gelato.
Mike and I are usually really good about our rule to only have/make sweets over the weekend--foregoing any extenuating circumstances like a holiday. But on holidays, we have the sweets, then they're gone and we don't deal with it all week. But this has just been ridiculous.
And so for the next week, starting tomorrow, I am OFF the sugar. And I'm resolved to work out (really work out, not going for a leisurely stroll) every day. I mean, really, there's no excuse except that I tell myself I have far better things to do. And certainly some things are better, but not enough things to fill up 24 hours. It's all about priorities, and this is now a priority.
i am so glad you posted!! yay!!!!! haha, yeah, holidays always get the best of everybody. good luck!! ~bob
ReplyDeleteGreat Post! Good luck with no sugar and working out hard.
ReplyDeleteWoah woah woah...I never said no sugar. I said no sweets. No candy, ice cream, cookies, etc. I may still very well have things with sugar in them. They're just not things defined by the amount of sugar in them. I just want that to be clear everyone. Thanks. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd Bob, did you not see my post from before? I think I have one more on here. Thanks though! It's good to feel wanted...as long as it's not by the cops. (Haha! Sorry, just had to throw that one in there.)
yeah, i know you posted before, i just meant that i was happy that someone has posted. it seems like it's been a while, we all should be posting at least every week, and yes i am including myself in that. i've just been having a hard time posting stuff and commenting on here, i don't know what the problem is, but i think i've figured it out now. anyway, i'm trying to do better and i hope everyone will keep posting how they're doing!! ~bob
