Sugar Addiction

So sugar really is an addictive substance and for me I need to take this seriously.  I need to avoid it. Last night I got into the cookies and ate I don't know how many and ate a bunch of other foods too.  I had been doing so well until the first cookie passed my lips and then it was like I lost control of myself.  I need to grow up and take control of my own life and stop letting this addiction control it.  On a more positive note from yesterday I did a HIT class.  It was an intense workout and I loved it :)  I was so shakey after.  I am a bit sore today but not as bad as I was the first class I did.  I need to get on the runing though.  I will get out there bright and early tomorrow morning before work.

I need to make a grocery list for myself for the week.  I want to have a good OP week and then next tuesday I will head in to get weighed. 

I will beat this sugar addiction and get back to my happy weight.  Now that I have a strength training program kind of in place I know I can do this.

Back to what works

Why is that I spend so much money on different diet programs but then i come back to WW.  Cause WW'ers works.  I still have 4 months left with simply for life.  What I am going to do is use some of the concepts and recipes from simply for life and incorporate points to it.  I think why I am having a hard time sticking with simply for life is that there is such little carbs in the diet.  I need my carbs but will use healthy carbs when I want them for my supper.  Usually I have a sweet potato which I really think is ok to have.  I will have some days without if I find a recipe that I really love...garlicky chicken or beef stirfry.  I am sure over the next 4 months I will find more recipes that I love.  I won't have carbs all the time for supper and in the evening...just when I feel I need them.  While I am working days I won't have them for supper which should be fine.  I am going to make some type of yummy stirfry with the chicken I cooked yesterday for supper.

I went for a 5K run this morning.  I did have some walk breaks...it was so hot out when I went.  I should have gone early this morning.  The next 2 mornings I am going to try and get up nice and early and get a 4K run in before going to work.  I always feel so much better at work when I get some exercise in before work.  I also spoke with A about the HIT program at the gym.  I have decided that I will join.  I will go next tuesday.  The thing that I like is that she gives a strength training program for a month.  That is what I need. 

Well I need to finish up the laundry and then make my lunch and pick up a few things at the grocery store.
