I have not bought or eaten dessert in ELEVEN days!! I'm making my son's birthday cake this weekend and I'm NOT going to have any (I actually just started to sweat and shake from sadness and fear while typing that). I am NOT going to go through this holiday season a slave to dessert. I am just. not. going. to! Right now I'M in control, if I start eating dessert then IT will control me until February. In the next 4 months I have to make it through the following: 5 birthdays (plus extra birthday parties), Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas parties, Christmas, and New Years. If I ate dessert (and we're talking just ONE dessert) on each of of those days, that's at the VERY least, 10 desserts. But that is SO far from reality for me it's not even funny. I usually average AT LEAST 3 desserts PER EVENT, and once I start eating dessert I usually can't stop for DAYS. This means that if I don't continue to put the breaks on now, I'm looking at consuming 50-80 desserts EASILY over the next 4 months. Wow, I'm actually really glad I'm typing this out because it's really driving the point home for me even more.
NO DESSERTS THIS HOLIDAY SEASON!! I realize what a bold and scary statement this is...eek! But it's happening, and I AM going to continue to LOSE weight over these next 4 months!!!!
Fight! Fight! Fight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good forYou!!! I think that sugar is an addiction- Once on a cruise my husband decided to have dessert--1 week cruise 120 desserts === 4 way bypass. You just can't have ONE!!!!
