OMG, I am so close to breaking into the cooking chocolate stash, you cannot believe. Since last Tuesday I’ve had one tiny piece of chocolate egg, a scone and salted caramel ice-cream. But that’s it for chocolate.
Ooops – and I have broken into the cooking digestive biscuits stash.
Oh, I just remembered, I do have secret stash of chocolate in the house. Eeek, maybe I shouldn’t have remembered it.
Anyhow, I’ve broken into the biscuits stash – yesterday – I did say I’d have to be desperate to do it, and clearly I was. But I only had 2 biscuits. But it’s still sugar. But at least it wasn’t a whole packet. But I shouldn’t have done it. But I really couldn’t help it. This whole giving up sugar thing is so fricking difficult.
Most of the time, I’m not too bad. It’s just that, at certain points of day I would usually snack – and usually snack on some chocolate, or something very sweet. So now, that I’m trying not to – it’s driving me crazy. And I haven’t yet found alternatives for everything. And in all honesty, there is still plenty of refined sugar in my diet – well now with the secret biscuit stash, but even things like bread contain sugar, unless it’s home made. I’m pretty sure the coffee whitener I use also have sugar in it. Just as well I plan not to buy any ore of that stuff, when this tin is finished. It’s Coffee Mate – those things. Another one of those naughty things I could just eat with a spoon.
Need to get back to exercise tomorrow – whether a walk, a jog, a HIIT, a skipping session, anything as long as it’s exercise. I’ve basically sat on my tush for the last 4 days of Easter. Food regime alone isn’t going to get me to my next weight goal. Target wearing sports gear in the morning, that will help – I hope………
