Sans le Sucre.

I gave up sugar for lent as well as fried foods. It's been really challenging but somehow God has helped me to overcome. I've bypassed coffee cake, hot fudge sundaes, and other sugar social eating opportunities. I have been substituting with a lot of dried and fresh fruit. It's sweet I want and sweet I get but without the sugar. I've been eating a lot less processed foods. And I've managed to drop 5 pounds.

After reading the first book I was trying to decide when was a good time to start. This past Monday I decided enough's enough and I started. I cleared out the pantry. Gone went most of the carbs and other pitfalls to our new eating style.

2nd day on the plan.

A good day for following my new lifestyle. I even had a date with Mike and was able to plan how to use my points to the best advantage! Yay! I popped popcorn before we went to the movies. I had some clementines an apple and popcorn to get me through my desire to munch while I watch. I even had a McD's icecream cone... I don't feel deprived and I don't feel out of control with my eating. It's very nice.
