I have decided that sugar is the root of all evil.  I am giving it up (again).  Yes, I have attempted this feat before.  The longest I have made it was a year.  I felt better.  I looked better. The thing with sugar, I just know it is not good for me.  Anything I crave with such  intensity, with such fervor can not be a good thing.  I am not one those (crazy) people who can have just one bite of dessert.  I need the whole cake, the whole box of cookies, the entire chocolate bar.  

Our New Years Resolutions have hung on the fridge for months now.  For Peanut: 1. No more formula    2. Be a good boy during Stroller Strides. He had his last bottle of Nutramagen in January. He is 1 for 2.      For Mom: 1. No more sugar 2. More patience. I am 0 for 2. I have high hopes for this spring, though.  Starting tomorrow, no more sugar for me.  No cake.   No cookies.   No candy for me.  I gave up nutra-sweet and all the rest of the artificial crap months ago, so thiswon’t be easy.  If I am feeling brave, I will post my progress each week.  If my husband is feeling brave, he won’t move out of the house.
