Oh, so sweet!

So today is NINE days off sugar and its been great! I don't use any artificial sweeteners. Just fresh fruit, honey (just a little) and stevia (when it gets here in the mail). I tried very hard to eat fruit every four hours the first couple of days and now just have some when I want, usually 3-4 times a day. That seems to have helped a lot this time. (I've done this before for a month and lost 20 lbs!) Sunday we had friends over and they passed a big bowl of assorted chocolate around and it wasn't even a temptation! I hope this willpower continues! It feels good to have a little more control over my eating habits. I still need to get rid of some extra carbs. A process, for sure.
