May Day

Day 1
Maybe I should say "mayday". I may end up in distress after a few days. However, today was not too bad. This may be due to the fact that for religious reasons I fast on the first Sunday of the month. Which makes it easy for me to avoid sugar. Only because I am avoiding food all together.
 I did have thoughts today about baking up an amazing desert. And I had to give away the last half of the chocolate bar I had been snacking on all week. It was slightly painful. But I know that in order to keep with the challenge I will have to get rid of all temptations. I am not sure what to do with the big bag of chocolate chips I bought a few weeks ago from Costco. I can't just throw them away. After all I love to bake and make goodies. I love to give them away to friends and neighbors, who are always happy to receive them. I think I will have to have my husband hide them from me.
What does my husband think of all of this? Well he has a great sense of humour and thinks that it is funny that I even got to this point. He finds humour in my addiction to sugar. I think his point of view comes from the fact that he himself does not care for sugar. Something that I wish I could achieve.
What about my kids? Well they are actually on board. They have all been sick off and on lately and know that eating sugar can make your immune system not as productive as  it could be. They are surprisingly begging to eat healthier. Luckily I know how to cook yummy healthy foods.
One day down, twenty nine to go!
