Another day without Sugar


Well life seems to be pretty good without sugar. I still crave chocolate. I am doing better with self control and saying no. If you know me I am a big breakfast eater. I love cereal and waffles. Because I am allergic to eggs I have had a hard time finding something good to eat. I have been trying new things for breakfast. First I have tried gluten free oatmeal with some honey on it. I have also tried a new protein drink which I love. It has all natural flavors in it. This morning I decided to try the gluten free meatballs with sun dried tomatoes ( I usually eat them for dinner) and some turkey bacon. They are all from trader Joe's. I also added some fresh fruit. This meal only took me about 5 minutes to put together. It was so Delicious. I think I have found my morning breakfast instead of eggs. The great thing about this meal it is gluten free and it has no artificial flavors or hormones. I just love Trader Joe's. I am working really hard on trying to eat well. I did wake up with a little cough and nasal congestion this morning but I know it is because I ran out of my vitamin C pack and my green tea. Off to the store today.

If you want to check out my friend Michele she gave me a lot of websites on how to give up sugar. One that I looked at is My years without sugar.

The great thing about doing this is Kyle is doing it with me. Allison has only gets special treats for things she does and I will give her candy or a choice between Apples and any fresh fruit we have around the house. She is such a good eater so I don't mind treating her once in awhile to some sweets. I am feeling a lot more energized too. Now If Caleb would get over this bad cough and if his teeth would just poke through, maybe I can get a good nights sleep. :)
