I've been doing really well avoiding sweets and refined carbs most of the time for the past year. I did it for my health, but it's had the happy side effect of a 20 pound weight loss. I'll take it!
Most of the time I'm satisfied with the way I eat, but all it takes is one weekend in a bed and breakfast--with cookies and orange-almond french toast--to turn me into a cookie-craving, m&m devouring basket case.
I've probably eaten 30 m&ms tonight. I feel like crud from the sugar. But I still really want a cookie.
Tomorrow I need to be strong and do the lean protein and yummy veggies thing, and put the thoughts of cookies out of my head.

It's taken me a couple of weeks to regain most of my resolve - just in time for Thanksgiving! I was so disciplined at our church pitch-in today, but then happily cleaned out the pineapple cake pan (complete with cream cheese frosting) after we were home this afternoon. Christmas is gonna be tough! But we will prevail!
::drool:: roasted Chicken. Brie with fruit. Roasted winter vegetables. A big juicy burger on a pile of fresh greens, topped with blue cheese and bacon.
Am I helping? :-)
