progress.............

I don't crave processed sugar and it is easy to pass up.  Go figure.  That is not to say I don't still have a sweet tooth.  I do.  Way bad.  Sunday, my baking day, I made the peanut butter cookies from twelve steps.  With semisweet chocolate chips.  And I really didn't feel that guilty when I ate 4.  That's a bad habit, I know. But the fact I can turn down other sweets is AMAZING.  I just made chocolate pudding with avocados. HELLO!  This is my new best friend!  And it's so full of healthy fat I really can't eat that much......it's filling!

I am cheating in a few ways........I chopped real finely some chocolate chips for my granola in the morning and eat a cup of granola with one tablespoon (I'm eating it with sprouts right?).........I put half the sugar in the Orange Julius I made for the kids today and had some....................... small things like that.

I'm finding I'm having a hard time fitting the green smoothie in the morning (or the Hot Pink Smoothie).  I think it's because I have been so busy this week that after getting the kids fed and off to school I have to run to something else.  For some reason it's just a heck of a lot easier to get the granola and sprouts down.  I suppose that's OK.  Salads are going OK.  Could be better. With my husband out of town this week I get lazy and don't prepare anything.

That's pretty much my update.  I'm doing pretty well with my goals and so proud that I have done so well turning down the processed sugars.................I'll nail this thing.
