Refined sugar is addictive and it is hard to get out of the sugar rut. I know that when I stay away from sugar, I feel so much better and don't crave it as much. When I do eat a sugary treat, it seems like it is that much harder for me to pass it up again. So for me, just not eating it at all is easiest in the long run. A few of the challengers have mentioned that the no sweets habit is the hardest to overcome, so I found a site that has a little slide show of healthy sweet treats. Here is the link:

I am a fan of your healthy habits, at least in theory. But I cannot get past this no sweets business. What if I promise to work out for 60 minutes a day and still eat a bowl of ice cream every night? Does that work? If not, I just can't get involved.
ReplyDeleteExercise and have your sweets too, you just won't get a point for habit #3! But I understand that Moose Tracks do call to you sometimes!
