Yummy


My new favorite snack. Graham crackers have just enough sweetness that it helps curb my cravings for candy. Soda was easy to kick. The difficult thing is when you get a value meal on the go - lemonade and Hi-C get old, and I really dislike the aftertaste of splenda which is in alot of the fake lemonades. Candy still proves to be my biggest challenge. My cravings are more when I am bored or am looking for something quick and open the fridge or freezer to see candy bars. The results of my cutting out these two groups of junk food is I have more energy (not a ton - but noticable) I also noticed when I ate ice cream it tasted too sweet for my liking. Any other health benefits I have not yet felt or realized yet. It would be nice though to once again not enjoy my junk food and desert quite as often as I have in the past. I will keep updating as I continue to see changes in my life.

OK...you semi motivated me. I decided that I need to loose 10 pounds that crept back on this year. Week one I cut out soda with you, and added 3 days of yoga. Week two, now, I am drinking 64 oz of water and doing 4 days of yoga. I couldn't quite cut out the dark chocolate yet but the graham crackers are a great thing, I totally agree!!! I also like to munch on celery with sugar free peanut butter. I has just enough sweet to it as well. Good luck! Oh, it may help to get rid of those candy bars in the freezer too. :)
