Chocolate Free!

Starting November 7, 2008 I will avoid Sugars and Sodas! I will allow myself November 26 & 27 to eat what I want, and also December 24 - 26!



So far.....5 great days filled with headaches from chocolate withdrawals.....



**Note: this is not for the rest of my life, it's just to try and create some new habits, and since I have NO self-control, I need to quit cold turkey and then slowly realize that I don't NEED chocolate/sugar/ice cream to survive and that it actually is a special occasion when we have sugar!



* I moved this into a post because I know someone wants to comment on this!

A. You're crazy. B. Does it mean only bad sugars (like apples are fine?)? C. I think I am going to join you on Monday (I can't say today because I have my road trip to see my beloved New Kids on Saturday!). I have done this with my sisters before for 30 day stretches. So that will be my plan (minus the Thanksgiving holiday!). So if you need any moral support, come Monday I am there for you.
Oh and D. You are amazing for doing this!

Whats the point in living? More power to you but I think you are crazy. It will just make you miserable and mean to your kids (well that's what it would do to me). Try my diet...I call it... "Life is Short--Grab A Snickers!"

Is this my sister Ericka?! Are you saying you will no longer have powdered donuts for breakfast?!! Good for you! Are you ready for some brown rice??

Why would you do such a thing?! You look so great and are always so smily and cheerful...why mess with a good thing? Living a sugarfull life seems to be working for you. : )

You chose an interesting time of year to quit sugar...good luck! You're stronger than me. I don't think I could have made it more than three days:)

A well balanced diet is chocolate in both hands! Don't give it up!
Life is good, better with chocolate!

If you have gone five days, than the worst is probably over. Good for you!

First off I just want to say that you are crazy!!! Second of all cold turkey is the way to go...Just kiding you are not crazy. I give you props for doing something so hard and doing it cold turkey!! Good luck!

Don't do it! You're so young! Ok... so I think it's good that you're doing it :( But I also think it's impossible. Maybe as long as you just keep eating fruit loops all day it'll trick your body lol Oh and I think you should exclude November 28th too because... we were supposed to consume massive amounts of gumballs on that day! But if it'll throw you off too much then we don't have to. Popcorn chicken and a corn dog will probably be enough :)
