Did you know that your appetite is a direct result of how much sugar you eat? In other words if you eat less sugar, you won't be hungry. And, isn't that the key to being able to stick to a diet?? The truth is that you are eating foods packed with hidden sweeteners that deliver a belly-fattening Sugar/Carb Value.

Thoughts on a Friday Evening

Well, 5 days have come and almost gone. I feel successful. I didn't get back up the two flights to weight myself and make sure the number I saw yesterday wasn't an anomaly, but I will do that tomorrow.

I got a grocery delivery today that included string cheese and walnuts. Both are recommended snacks that are high in protein, low in carbs and no sugar. I haven't felt the need for a snack yet though.

I planned my meals for tomorrow already so that I could fit in a grapefruit for breakfast. I will go over the sugar grams by about 4. But, I can't afford to throw them away and the vitamin c will be good for the stuffy nose that is starting tonight.

I have a few new recipes to try in the next four days. That makes me very happy, because I love to cook. I will post them with their respective carb and sugar content as I make them.

I will post my finishing counts for the day in a few hours. It is under again. All the more reason I think the grapefruit for breakfast is a good idea!
