*taking a deep breath*

so...

all of next week...

i'll be eating...

no sugar.

no soda, no candy, no chocolate {*cries*}, no baked goods.

you know what Moriah said when i told her? "WHY!?"

"um, because i want to." silly girl, she acted like i was going to cut off my arm or something!

i was inspired to do this crazy thing by Meg. She's been doing it for two months, with only one or two slips. :)

so i can do it for one little week, can't i?

i can,

i can,

i...

hope i can.

i'm eating M&M's as i write this. that can't be a good sign.

oh, and mom and dad went to the grocery store today, and came back with ice cream. two cartons, plus the half-empty (half-full?) carton in there already. i can see this is going to be easy. *said sarcastically*

AND , Ethan comes up to me yesterday and ask's "Can I make something with you?"

i will still bake things, because i'm sure my brothers would go bonkers if there were no baked goodies in the house. i just won't eat them.

really, i won't.

stop laughing, it's not funny!

;)

i'll probably blog each day about how i'm craving M&M's and soda. if i don't, leave a comment and say "you're eating sugar!!! i know you are!"

you'll do that for me, right? :)

Love, me

Don't feel bad. Paul and I are on Day Two of being vegetarian. All I can think about is tri-tip.

[Momma Bug]

So... no sugar of any kind?
Or no refined sugar?

[Ashley]

thanks carlotta! and, i think you could do it!

Laurie, that made me laugh!!!

Analene, i'm basically trying to not eat any extra refined sugar. i will still eat, say, banana bread, applesauce, etc. i just want to stay away from soda, candy, chocolate (though i may still eat a square of dark chocolate if i need *something* ;). no brownies or cookies or cake. we eat oatmeal a lot for breakfast, and i like brown sugar on mine. but i'll eat honey on it next week.

so, does that make any sense at all? :)

love, me

Go for it, Sashy! You can do it!!! If it inspires you, I have done that much, and more.

(I am on here WAY too much. I must have BAS -- Blog Addiction Syndrome.)

[Briony Katie]

How can you NOT live without sugar! HOW???

I'd rather eat a computer then go without sweets! He He!

[Monica]

AHHHHH no chocolate :'( So sorry Ash I'll pray for you :P *sighs*

[Lady Jess]

You think you can, you think you can, you think you can, but can you? Of course you can! Cool picture!

[Moriah]

[Emmy]
