Sugar Free Update

The first day went really good in fact I was surprised by how easy it was and how good I actually felt. My prediction had been headaches and temptations. I even passed up on Lorilee's birthday cake without even thinking twice. I started thinking this week would be a breeze.
And then today came. I slipped up a bit at work when I popped a butterscotch disk in my mouth and didn't even think twice about it. That is what the biggest thing I have noticed is, how often I reach for candy or snacks without even looking for it or thinking about it. The boys "forgot" and both had a cookie with lunch. I also had to give into Teegan and let him eat the decorated Christmas tree (ice cream cone with frosting) he made at school today. I actually went to help and have to say the sweet smell of frosting about did me in.
Later this afternoon the thought "what should I bake" came to my mind a dozen times. And after dinner I was having a real hard time not getting something sweet to satisfy me.
So, we have made it almost 2 days, 4 more to go......
Overall I feel really good.
