These are Banana Bread Muffins. Why would I waste eating sugar on these and not on chocolate or something really amazing? I can't say. I just lost control of myself. Usually it isn't even hard to not eat sugar. I didn't even eat them when they were fresh out of the oven. We went to the botanical garden today and when we got home I was hungry and I ate a few.
I am not going to get discouraged however. Tomorrow is another day and I intend to get back on the wagon. I even thought to myself, "Hey, since I ate sugar I might as well eat a snickers and start over tomorrow." But I didn't listen to myself. I haven't eaten sugar for two months and just because I ate sugar one day doesn't make all of that null and void, right?
I have to say that I'm a little bummed about how little not eating sugar is helping me to lose weight. It makes me just not want to give up sugar because it's not doing anything amazing. I think I need to read a book on how to overcome OVEREATING because that appears to be my major problem. I used to overeat sugar and now I overeat other things.
Tomorrow I also begin my diet again. Tomorrow I'm signing up with a gym. You see, tomorrow is another day.
I have also been working hard on "speaking my kids' love languages" (see The Five Love Languages of Children). Sweets is always begging me to do my hair. I really do not enjoy having my hair done by young children, but . . . . I allowed it and it wasn't that terrible. Although the little 4-year-old neighbor girl also helped and she hurt me. What do you think of my do?

Once again, sorry to disappoint all of you. Alas, I'm not a woman of steel.
Don't get down on yourself. You've done great so far. Honestly, if you're able to go from eating a little sugar one day to recommitting to your goal again right away, that's awesome. Besides you passed on the candy bar, and the candy bar is much worse than a few muffins.
ReplyDeleteHey, you did great and that means you can do it again! You are a very strong woman with great goals! You can do it Angela. I'm proud of you.
