Sunday Sugar free day#12 (?)

Ok not sure what day it is but Im sure its more then 7 lol.....I was good all day yesterday until we left for the game night with friends=( I posted an update on the post so u can see what I did...

BUT new day lesson learned.....I woke up this am feeling bloated and yucky......I didnt feel like doing ANYTHING but while Oni went to get Gena (She stayed at gma and gpas house for the night) I made the bed cleaned up the house and then did a wkout....
100 crunches (different types)
Different lunges and squats
40 girlie push ups
By the time I was done I felt hot and a tad sweaty I got in the shower and once I was out had me my coffee and a 6in subway sandwhich.....yesterday I bought a foot long knowing Id save the other half for today Im pretty full =) I know I was bad last night so its motivation to be good from now on I need to go shopping for more veggies (sugar snap peas) and fruit =)
Im determined to stick to this now I can definetly feel the difference from before amazing how not having sugar does this to me....the minute I did have it I can tell the difference .....today Im hoping to go for a nice walk its nice out...=)

*****************HOURS LATER*********************************

Ok so I wasnt able to walk around today it started getting cold....my mom called me to take her to Costco so I went with her I had an orange and some pretzels as a snack, while there they had snacks everywere!! =I I did good Gena had a taste of skinny cow ice cream.....I didnt touch it.....BUT then my mom bought me a churro to share with Gena AHHHH! ! I tasted it....it was ok....not addicting I picked at it because honestly I was hungry...she also bought us a berry smoothie it was SWEET.....Gena drank most of it along with eating most of the churro....so I thought ok I was good....THEN hubby ordered pizza =( Thin crust veggie lovers for me....he got it with the thoughts of 1:I can have left overs for tomorrow and dinner... he did thin crust becaused he knows Im watching how I eat I had 2 small thin slices Im still a tad hungry but stopped eating and drank water.....tomorrow after wk Im going to get more raw veggies...and fruit....the pizza is also my lunch tomorrow....but just 1 slice....I am worried about weigh gain.....but I am also heading for a 30min cardio wkout tomorrow after wk at the gym we have at wk.....and ofcourse my 30min power walk at lunch so I think I should be ok =)

Struggles.....

Ok so this weekend we went to Disneyland, but let me back up a tad to friday.We went bowling for Oni bday and I resisted sweets I did have chips and salsa but said no to everything else.We had alot of fun and I met some of his friends he hasnt seen in forever!! One of his friends is a sweetie and I love love her!!! She said I looked tiny =) ok shes sweet, but I think I look the same.We got home around 12am went straight to bed!! lol Well on saturday he woke up excited and said WERE GOING TO DISNEYLAND!! So we went but I had my coffee first, instead of eating Mc Donalds (like Oni and Gena) me and Akira had Subway turkey breast dry with tons of veggies, no drink or sides I had water.Ok while Oni ate his fries (smelled sooooooo good) I NEVER once asked for one he was shocked! lol Gena had some Jelly Beans (ohhh) I grabbed one popped it in my mouth and Oni right away said "Ur not suppose to have that " I sortof didnt realize it, spit it out and told him thank u !! I brought along apples and fish crackers (original) has less than 1g of sugar.When we got there I need something warm!!! (COLD!) ....and thats when it started :FORGOT MY TRUVIA!!! =O......I had a coffee (hot choc was a no no) and did use splenda , at dinner we ate at the New Orleans Cafe, I ordered :

the Blackened chicken with a side salad, ok well I didnt know it was smuthered (the bread) so it was a tad buttery next time I will know , the salad had a vinagrette I ate some of it but it was to much since Im not into dressings, also I had water with lemon =)

Snacks were an apple and some crackers and also more water.

When we were done (it was about 12) I was super thirsty Oni got me a Diet Pepsi.The next morning we woke up and our ckout was 12pm.......sooo no breakfast since we woke up sortof late.We went into California Adventures to eat lunch, ok, I gotta say, I did what I could.

Asian bowl (yes white rice ) and chicken terryaki (sauce on the side) coffee (splenda) It also had tons of veggies in it like onions and bell peppers YUMMY!!!! I did use a little of sauce, not all of it and I was FULL by the time I was done. We walked around alot!! I did use my sketchers shapeups (Oh and at the hotel before leaving I did some girly push ups and some abs and also squats)

I had no snacks at all just alot of water, by the time the girls and Oni wanted dinner, I wasnt very hungry , grant it the last time we ate it was 1pm and it was already 8!! Oni wanted a sourdough bread bowl....YIKES Akira and I had the veggie chili..........I did have some bread and a coffee (yes I drink it alot BUT not for caffeine but it was cold!! ) Ok soo Oni got a cinnamon roll and I wanted to taste it he looked at me and said "No not worth it dont eat it , youll feel guilty" So I didnt =) Before we left I weighted myself.....133.8 (my body loves this weight =( ) so this am I weighed again I lost 2 ounces lol Ok so I struggled but I think I did ok =) thanks for reading and cking up on me!!

No sugar...........wait what!?

Ok so Ive been trying to not eat anything with any artifical sugar, I have my weak moments.....I have clinical hypoglycemia so this am I had a tiny attack my heart was racing and I know the only way to get rid of it fast was sugar/carbs.I grabbed a few ritz crackers and boom it was gone.....then back to no sugar.I no longer use splenda I switched to Truvia, I heard (after I already bought it) that Stevia is better =I ....ok well next time Ill get it ....lol

Its not that hard to avoid sugar,except its almost that time for me and this is when I want sweets also today is my hubbys bday...I bought him a cookies and cream cake from Baskin Robbins.....I admit I had a couple bites from Genas but I did not serve myself any, I had a cup of coffee with sugar free vanilla creamer, it helped my sweet tooth.Yesterday I wked out for 55min and my calves HURT!!!!!!! I think I can do this!! I will struggle but in time I think it will come easy =) this is what I ate today:

Coffe w/ sf creamer
Oatmeal w/ cinnamon and truvia
Orange

Lunch I had ground turkey breast with veggies and sugar free chocolate pudding
water 32oz

I grabbed a diet pepsi.........I fill it up with tons of ice to water it a tad

Got home didnt have dinner yet I had an apple so Im ok for now also another cup of coffee.

Were going bowling tonight,my goal is to be cautious about what I put in my body,drink more water and just have fun!!! My cloths feel good I feel good I wont weigh myself until probable sunday....but Im nervous because when Im due I normally gain about 3lbs! =( Im taking it one day at a time! Il do my best to keep u poste =)
