death to sugar!

... Well, not really, but I have made a decision to continue with my "no eating sugary snacks" plan. I will admit that I have a pint of vanilla ice cream in my freezer, but I'm not devouring it. In fact I allow myself about 3 spoonfuls a night with an added shot of limoncello. That is seriously good stuff! And this won't be an all the time snack.

Why have I decided to continue this? Well, I'll tell you. Since May 22, 2010 I have lost 26 pounds! I also feel my energy level has increased and my crabbiness has decreased! I allowed myself my 2 sugary treats at Disneyland AFTER the marathon and that was it. I'm going to begin my weekly walks again (been giving myself a short break to recoup from the race) and want to start training again for more races. I'm thinking I might try for the Disney World Princess Half Marathon in February 2011.

Oh and I will only on specially occasions eat sugary snacks, but will be careful not to overdo it. I'm feeling better and have goals to make!

  1. Refined sugar is evil and you're feeling that. Good for you and the healthy decisions you are making.
