A normal weekend day in my life equals treats, treats and more treats. In the past I would eat very healthy and treat free during the week and then go on a major sugar binge on the weekend. I would end up so sick by the time Monday came around. It would take all week of me eating healthy just to make up for the weekend. Well I am proud to say that the weekend binges have come to a stop!!!! I have just made it through Friday and Saturday with out a single treat.
This weekend has not been with out temptation either. Friday ,I stopped at Paradise Cafe, home of the most amazing cookies in the world!!! I bought one dozen cookies for Aaron and the girls to share. I am proud to say that I did not eat, smell or evan lick a single one of these melt in your mouth cookies. Saturday night I went with my mom and sisters to See's Candies. The sweet smell of chocolate hits your senses the moment the door to the store opens. While entering we were immediately invited to sample two types of truffles. I did not eat a single Carmel,almond filled chocolate!!! I did not eat a single chocolate or treat period.
After See's and some shopping my mom,sisters and I hit a new frozen yogurt shop. I found that the yogurt parlors have enough fresh fruit that they use as mix in's, for a delicious fruit salad. Once again I conquered my never ending sweet tooth!!!
Today is the 5th day of my treat free adventure and I must say I already feel so much better!! I can tell a difference in my energy levels and I do not have the headaches that I always got after eating to much sugar. I can also tell a huge difference in my running. Yesterday I had the best 14 mile run!!!
I dare say I am actually enjoying being treat free!! Here is to day 5!!
