The 'Towards a Sugar-Free Future' Challenge

That is great, Honey_Bear!  

Jazee, good to know about D0min03s cookies.  I also broke yesterday (another slice of the cake but this time it was a conscious choice as my willpower is still on holiday).  Let's hope today is more successful sugar-wise.  

I've been sugar-free so far and I've got a meeting during my 'danger hour' this afternoon.  If I can get past that, I think I have a chance of finally having a sugar-free day.  I really need to get back on track.  

Have a great day and hope everyone is making progress this week

Jazee and Cookie, it's really hard getting back into the groove after a break.  I've only made it this far because I am eating a date, cacao and orange bar after a hefty lunch.  I'm not convinced I'd make it right through without that.

Third day racked up, much to my surprise.  I thought one day would be a real struggle but that's three in row after a very indulgent Christmas, New Year and Birthday so I'm a happy bunny.  Aiming for a fourth today.

Amazing work, Honey_Bear!  Over here, I'm pleased to report that I had my first sugar-free day of 2022 . I'm hoping to build on that today.  

I hope everyone is well.  Good luck for today!

Jazee

Well done both.

Thank you, Jazee!  How has the rest of your week been going?  

I'm relieved to report that I managed a 2nd sugar-free day yesterday.  Today, I'm aiming to be sugar-free until this evening.  I'm also going to try and be restrained with the amount of sugar I have this evening and over the weekend.  If I can do that, I think I'll increase my chance of having a sugar-free day on Monday.

This is amazing, Honey_Bear!  Well done!

Hope today goes well for everyone .

Massively well done Cookie, two days in a row plus the best part of a third day racked up.  I didn't find getting back into the groove as tough as when I started on this challenge - how about you?

Having said that, I caved last night and had a m@gnum which was a bad thing, obviously, after three days and most of the fourth but - and it's a big but - getting it out of the freezer I discovered that the freezer wasn't working which I really needed to know.  It looks as though today is going to be freezer content shuffling but at least I can salvage all the meat and fish.  And pizzas, very important those pizzas.  I wouldn't have known about it not working if I'd remained all virtuous and sugar-free.

Having small amounts of sweet stuff here.

Honey_Bear

Small is good Jazee, better than large amounts.  Count every victory!  I will certainly indulge myself later and if that involves large amounts I'm not going to beat myself up about it.

Honey_Bear

Indulging myself involved large amounts of chocolate and I'm not going to stress out about that either.  The freezer thing was incredibly hard work and took the whole day but it's now completely sorted.
