Saying no to sweets!

Guess what everyone, yesterday was the first day I did not have anything sweet!  I cant remember the last time I was able to say that.  And what was really weird is I didnt even crave anything all day.  It wasnt till the evening that I realized it.  I got home from bible study last night and I told my husband that I had not had anything sweet all day.  I know he was just as shocked as I was, and the first thing he said was “Make sure to post it on the blog”.  So here I am posting!  I know that was definitely the Lord answering my prayer because I tell you, the cravings are sooooo strong and for me to not have any is nothing short of a miracle.  I know my USANA shakes have also been a great help.  I cant wait to try the recipes that Lila posted, they sound so good and I plan on replacing the “bad” sweets with the “healthy” sweets.  Im going to a birthday today and I know I will probably have some cake and ice cream, but instead of two servings, I will have one small serving.  I cant say I will pass it up entirely because I know that just wont happen, but as long as I start to cut down, I know Im on the right track.  I will keep you all updated on my progress.

Disneys California Adventure!

Hey everyone, I hope this goes through, I guess Im the only one having a hard time trying to figure out how to post a message, I have plenty to say but I just cant get how to do this.  Anyway, Art and I went to Disneys California Adventure on Saturday and it was great!  Talk about some fun exercise, boy oh boy was it ever!  I felt so out of shape and my legs were killing me but it was fun!  I realized just walking on the track or around the block can get a little boring so I definitely want to do more things that involve walking around instead of just sitting eating a donut or something sweet.  Which reminds me, Im sad to report I have not been doing so well cutting down on the sweets.  I never realized it but I have an addiction to sweets!  I know I know it sounds funny, but I really do!  I have found that since I got involved with “This is not a diet” its even harder now to stop eating sweets.  This struggle is daily, and I want to have more control.  So please all of you out there, hold me accountable and ask me how Im doing every now and then, because just being accountable to me only is not working!  I look forward to hearing from everyone and anyone!
