Topic: RE: Accountability: Day #1
You go girl!!!!!!!!! I haven't touched sugar in over a week now and I feel less groggy and more energetic. Sugar is poison for some of us. I am tickled pink over this. You are way on your way to kicking this terrible habit. Working out and drinking your water. You are such an inspiring person. Love ya, Crissie
Topic: Accountability: Day #1
What I ate yesterday (how does this stack up to how you're eating? I guess I'm really not sure at this stage...)
6am, protein shake (with lite yogurt and 4 strawberries, plus protein powder)
10am, celery stalk w/peanut butter
Noon, leftover stir fry veggies and strip chicken, about a cup
3pm, clementine and hard boiled egg
8pm (getting home from the barn and I was starving), lite english muffin w/peanut butter, and a cup of sugar-free hot chocolate
During the day, I had a total of 5 pieces of sugar free candy (my own)
All my water and vitamins
Worked out (aerobic) on my lunch hour and worked out with Laela after work
I've gone 2 days at work without M&Ms or other candy.
I feel clearer in the head today.
Please assess, analyze, compare with how you're eating. Have a great day, guys. Maureen

I am so proud of you! No matter what that scale says, be proud of how you've turned this around, Crissie! But I can't wait for your post! Maureen

Topic: RE: Protein???
That's pretty easy for me; I keep a 16.5 bottle in my office and make sure I fill it and drink it 4-5 times a day. You're on the road so it must be harder for you. M.

Topic: RE: Sugar
HI, I am still being soooo good. It has been over a week now, I am weighing in the morning. Got my fingers crossed. That note is sweet and to the point, I really hope they will put up the sugar and help and support you. I know I do. Thanks for supporting me. You don't need no sugar, honey. 'Cause you're sweet enough without it!
Topic: RE: Protein???
most of what i eat is protein. nuts meats, chicken, beans, milk, cottage cheese stick cheese. greek yogurt lots and lots of protein.
i'm having a hard time getting the required water in. what are we suppose to do 8 glasses of 8oz? can't get past 6 or i'd float and sometimes it feels as if i'm going to float.

Yep, I remember when we met each other, Pam, I said to you, "You are one long drink of water!" Remember? You are tall and statuesque. Who's the lucky guy?

Topic: Sugar
This part of an email I sent to one of my colleagues - all roads worth treading start with a singular step...
I need to share something of rather a personal nature with you. I am fighting what I believe to be a serious addiction to sugar, so please – no more candy! I really appreciate your kind gestures of sharing but I’ve got to get a handle on this. And I promise I won’t put you in the uncomfortable position of having to shoo me away from your desk! J I just wanted to let you know – and this is between you and me, ok? I’m really fighting this – thanks.

Topic: RE: It Starts in the Head!
Thanks for your support, Kim. Hey - do you track your protein at all? Do you have any idea how much you're getting on a daily basis? Can you share a day's worth of eating that is typical for you? I'm really stumped on the protein issue... how's the pup?? Maureen
