Congrats and how interesting. We aren't ...Yeah! Congrats and how interesting. We aren't huge treat eaters at our house. I went to make cookies the other day and realized that my cookie scoop broke months ago and I needed to buy a new one. It had been that long. I love chocolate chip cookies but for the life of me I can make a good batch regularly. Gunnar on the other hand is a treat eater if I let him.Kristi M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02131163158200435391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548090557394579614.post-69517712194609641512010-07-02T17:45:23.512-06:002010-07-02T17:45:23.512-06:00I thought you looked thinner! Isn't it amazing...I thought you looked thinner! Isn't it amazing that when you're that small, just a few pounds can make a difference? I remember that. When I was as skinny as you I would fluctuate a good 3-5 pounds all the time and could totally tell. I really don't think I'd notice a loss of 3 pounds now, or ever again. Anyway. I can't believe you didn't slip ONCE. That is impressive. I wouldn't get offended when people say they couldn't do what you did, to me that's a compliment to you. And them saying they love sweets too much doesn't mean it's too hard, or harder than it was for you, it just means they don't have as much will power. I am really proud of you!!! I bet you'd get the same effect if you went 3 months or even a month without sweets. It doesn't take long to break the habit and feel that effect of, "Oh I can't finish this bite" kind of feeling. Because I've never gone as long as you, I've never even gone a MONTH, but I've definitely had that feeling. I had that feeling with Weight Watchers and I had sweets everyday! But I had a SMALL amount of sweets everyday and then I got to the point where I couldn't finish a candybar either. What is this miraculous candybar your work was raving about? So did Clay eat sweets in front of you through this whole process? I was so glad you called yesterday!!! You inspire me. It makes me want to do Weight Watchers again after I have the baby, because I have just lost all control. But I don't want to off the sweets completely. That's just not worth it to me, at least not yet!Megan and Greghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07920863346902764286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548090557394579614.post-56004524407568716882010-07-02T12:29:49.594-06:002010-07-02T12:29:49.594-06:00Wow! I think it is so amazing what you did. The ...Wow! I think it is so amazing what you did. The results are very interesting. I hope it stays. Since I have been more focused on weight watchers, I don't eat as many treats as I used to. Actually since I went back to ww's 8 years ago I don't eat sweets as much as I used too. But it makes me wonder what I would be like if I did that. I still want treats and think about them, not all the time, but more than I want. So I feel like I have balance, but the cravings are still more than I'd like. I think I want to watch you for a while and see how it works out. I don't say that to put pressure, I just am curious how long these feelings last. If they last for a long time it would be so worth it. I am very proud of you!!!! love you!Sharon/Mom/ Grandmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15124165947194053242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6548090557394579614.post-81323823987080913692010-07-02T08:38:18.570-06:002010-07-02T08:38:18.570-06:00I'm so proud of you.

UHhhhhhhhhhhh. OK- first of all, I'm so sorry for not calling you today! I was going to call you to see how the first day eating treats went, and then I forgot! I feel like I missed your birthday or something! Ok- when people say "i could never do that" they might mean it in a way like- "I could never do that, because I'm not as strong as you, I'm weak, I have no will power"- like- it just shows how amazing you are for doing it, because how many people have done that? Not many. But you have! Because you are so strong! and have so much will power! It is so incredible that you were able to do this and over come your temptations! Because I know what treats are to you! I love how empowered it made you feel. I'm sure this blog will inspire alot of people. I love you! And have fun on your 4th of July activities!AMY AND MIKEYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14506098535542997582noreply@blogger.com
