Here's the truth. I have a sweet tooth. Always have, always will. It's probably been my biggest pitfall in gaining weight....well at least in not losing it. So when I went cold turkey and cut sugar out of my food intake it felt good.....and then today happened. I caved, I had a sugary treat. Blueberry muffins be damned. Silver lining....I didn't gobble it up in one gulp. Although....since I'm on a truth telling kick here, if it weren't for the kids distracting me, I probably would have. So it was stretched over 3 hours. Now I know exactly why my will power failed me today. I did not eat anything at all up until about 12pm today. So when my girlfriend brought over the treat, it was game over. Had they not been starring at me from the counter and had I not been starving, oh and that sweet tooth I may have mentioned such unfaithfulness would not have taken place.
OK, water under the bridge. Work outs have been kicking ass this week (and this week is not over still) so I'm not feeling terribly guilty for that cheating move today. Taught two spin classes, took a killer step class. Tomorrow's plan is to get my butt in gear at 6am....yes that's right...Hassan can't believe it either. But with a jam packed weekend coming up, if I don't get out of bed at 6am, I won't fit in exercise. Plus I'll be more than likely guilt driven to burn off that muffin.
Ah! How could I forget. Check out the first set of recipes. There's now a "RECIPES" option in the top menu. Hope you enjoy some of the clean eating choices I've cooked up. Oh another one to add to the list were zucchini fritters I whipped up today! To die for yum!! Kids gobbled theirs up! Lips smacking and everything!
