Today was my first day on DietBet!  I don't want to get too over predictive (is that a word?) but I feel like this blogging stuff and sharing to whoever is out there is going to help me a lot.  My thing is I want to give up sugar because I know it makes me fat and makes me feel like crap.  I have tried to do it before but I was only ever doing it by myself and I always failed.  Today was already hard because I feel like my whole body is crying out for something sweet, well because it just tastes so darn good!  I had a major irony today- my VERY FIRST day, a client at work brought in my bosses favorite cake from this bakery- a big choclate cake- enough to last for days!!!  And I have had it before and it is so good!  WELL, I have thought about making this commitment and I thought about obstacles like this and what would I do....so I was kinda prepared in my head even though the cake at work took me by surprise.  Maybe in the future I can have a slice or two of cake but for now there are just certain things that are off limits.  I just can't handle them, especially in this detox stage.  So I just focused on how bad I would feel if I had that cake and phew- I made it.  And now it is time to go to bed and start a new day.  I do feel kinda crappy without the sugar and right now I am a little hungry but I have been asking myself if I am hungry or just craving something.  I have raw almonds at work because sometimes I am super busy and I don't ever want to be famished- not good.  So that cake will be there tomorrow but I am going to keep my eye on the prize.  Good luck everybody!
