The Challenge

So with the challenge...
I have gotten to the point where I am not craving it at all. Corey desperately wants me to dive into sweets. Apparently, he misses eating sweets with me. I thought that maybe I would end it, because I'm not really craving it. I smelled a piece of chocolate & although it smelled good, I didn't want it. So, I think even though it hasnt been 28 days I'm ready to slowly introduce them back into my life.

I guess breaking a habit doesn't neccissarily take 28 days, but creating one does.

Day 1

Really, it's 4:43 & I've already thought of adjusting my plan or starting "tomorrow". haha. I have realized one thing about my sweets habit already. When Will cries I look for sweets. Maybe not right away, but after he goes down for his nap for sure. I guess this will be when I turn to God, for help dealing with the emotions & stop myself from eating that swiss cake roll. It's not like I'm super stressed when he cries or anything. It's wierd. So far, we're good.

the 28 day challenge

Ok, here it goes. I almost chickened out.

The Mission: Go 28 days without any sweets
The Reason: I am a sweet junkie & I can't seem to eat them in moderation, so I think the best thing would be to detox from them. I want to lose weight & more improtantly be healthy. I heard that it takes 28 days to create a habit.
The Exceptions: Now to clarify, to me sweets are candy, cakes, cookies, ice cream, and the like. I'm not going to count my starbucks drink as a sweet (I hardly ever go there anyway). If I am having a really sluggish day I can have a caffinated beverage (including soda), but only one.
The Substitutes: yogurt, fruit, 100% fruit juice, 100% fruit juice homemade popsicles, yogurt raisins, banana bread, homemade whole wheat muffins, & stuff like that.
The Support: God, Corey, & whoever reads this.

I'm scared to write about this, because I really don't want to fail & then everyone on here know I'm a loser. So that is the reason I am writting about this. haha. Thanks for your help!
