I think I can...
And I am!
Whenever I get a craving for something sweet, I eat fruit, or fruit sweetened bars. (They are really yummy!) And my sweet Bonny even made me some sugar free molasses cookies the other day. They were great!
I'm finding that if I eat meals on time, then I don't crave sweets as much. BUT, if I don't eat when hunger starts to set in, then I want SUGAR almost immediately.
I've also found that drinking water often helps, because sometimes my body misinterprets my thirst for hunger. So I'm working on being more hydrated, too.
Thanks for all the support! It really helps me A LOT, because I now have lots of folks to answer to. YAY! I appreciate y'all cheering me on! :-D
Good job, and good luck to you. I am trying to do the same thing, but it is not going as well. I have to have more self control too.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it, Diane! A sugar-free friend told me it's just like not drinking coffee or alcohol, or smoking-- I just don't do those things! And now, I just don't eat sugar. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat really helped me a lot. I hope it can help you, too!
Hugs,
