I'm having trouble with sweets this week. I have been craving sweets lately. I never really had trouble with sweets before but, lately I have been wanting sweets after every meal that I eat. What is that all about?? Then I end up adjusting my calories to accommodate the sweets and it doesn't leave much for good healthy food. I hate how it makes me feel at the end of the day. I get bloated up and sometimes I get jittery after I eat something sweet. Then I drink more water to hopefully flush out my body.
What is wrong with me.....I need a healthy alternative! I think it actually started a couple of weeks ago when our neighbor came back from India after being there for 5 months and brough back 2 boxes of Indian sweets. They are like ground almond and ground cashew fudge. And the other one is like crispy pie crust with layers of lemon and licorice....indescribable yumminess!!!
Well, needless to say no one in my family liked them except me. I did limit myself to one a day after the first couple of days but I think that set me on a sweet craving..??
Ok....enough of that.
I am trying to get in more exercise this week. My summer training schedule has ended and I need to get a new plan. I used to try to get in 30 minutes of moving each day at home on the days I'm not training. I think I will try to do that again. I love to play DDR and Wii Fit. My bike has had a flat and I haven't rode it all summer. I like to walk too. So, I have options, I just need to get my rear in gear!!
Have a GREAT week!

Lovely to see you back and congratulations on your progress.
When you feel able to give up the sweets try replacing them with an apple. After a day or two the desire to end your meal with sweets will not be so overwhelming.
Who am I to tell you. Your so much more successful than I am. *smile*
