Today is the day I rest my body (I will be doing a little bit of physical therapy stuff that I forgot to do in the last couple of days though). Yesterday I remembered something that helped me to cut down on sweets a lot in the past. I'm going to try it again and see how it works out for me this time. Maybe it will help someone else too. Whenever I would feel like eating something sugary I drank a glass of water. That way I was getting the water that my body needed and my body was satisfied so that I no longer craved the sugar. Sounds simple but sometimes the simple things work out the best.

Update on my sugar intake: ate a piece of the egg pie that my husband made (sounds gross but it's a lot like flan), and some oatmeal crisp that was left over to put on top of the applesauce muffins I made for his breakfast this week. Not horrible but I really could have done without the crisp, it had a ton of brown sugar in it.

Today's goal: No sweets. One day without sweets isn't going to kill me! :)
