I've been consuming obscene amounts of sugar lately. In the past, my pregnancy cravings have always been for salty/savory foods, but this time I'm just a sugar fiend. It's gotten quite out of hand, and I decided (after a Halloween candy incident yesterday) that today I would go completely without sugar.
Basically that means, none of the granulated or powdered white stuff, no Halloween candy, and no baked goods. I was going to say no calorie-containing drinks, but I did have some 1% milk on my Raisin Bran for breakfast, and I polished off the last cup of orange juice in the carton - not that those are horrible things. I'm not really a pop-drinker, not regular pop anyway. I sometimes buy diet Sprite or diet Rite cherry cola. Cherry Coke is my favorite pop of all time. My kids each got a can of cherry Coke Zero at one of the houses we trick-or-treated on Monday. I'm having a hard time staring at it in the fridge every day without stealing a can. I think they would wonder, though...
So, in the interest of being completely honest, I cleaned out the fridge this morning, and when I threw away the three remaining pieces of my son's birthday cake from two weeks ago, I did take one small lick of buttercream frosting. Considering how much sugar I've been eating lately though, I think that's still a vast improvement. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to drink some water and eat some broccoli.
Your Veggie-ness,
Jessica
