that's funny - I sprung the "no candy" rule on myself on Monday...and I'm just taking it one craving at a time at this point. There are some habits that are harder than others. It's things like "just one Cadbury egg" at the grocery store or "swing into the mini mart" while getting gas. I know it will get better. I've cut other things out of my diet successfully but I seem to have (somewhat) blocked just how hard it was initially. I do know it gets better...just have to stick to it! WE can do it!

He's so adorable! And I am so with you on the eating. Although today is day 3 with no sugar. That kind of snuck up on me, and I think that's why it worked. I didn't pressure myself for anything more than one day. Maybe that would help?

Yay so good to see you back! I am slowing getting back into training. I am doing one tri this summer the first weekend in August. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Welcome back! I'm in nearly the same boat, just 2 months behind you. But I am feeling more and more ready to get back to moving my body and healthier eating...here's to both of us making it happen!

What a cutie pie! Welcome back!

Welcome Back. He is beautiful. It will be rough getting back on the horse but after a few weeks you will love it.

YAY!! I am so happy you are back! I am signing up for a sprint tri this summer too. I figure I am turning forty and should be at goal then so it will be a lot of fun to train for something.
Good to 'see you'

Welcome back. It took me almost 2 years to get back in the game after my first child. This time around I refused to let that happen and rejoined weightwatchers 5 days post baby. It was SO hard to stop my fun preggo holiday eating. Now she is almost 6 weeks and its alot easier. Still sucks, but easier.

Welcome back! Give yourself time to heal and purge the hormones. It will take time. Been there.

So glad to hear from you. Glad you and baby are doing well. Take care and focus on being a mommy. There's time for fitness soon enough.

Good luck with the impending birth.

With both pregnancies I was 216 at my 10 week appointment. With the first I was 246 at my 40 week appointment and with the 2nd I was at 231. But with both I got to 216 within 3 weeks of their birth.

You are going to do great and we are hear cheering you on when it is time to start losing again for real.

I am excited for the arrival of your new addition!...

2011-07-08T06:55:37.378-07:00

I am excited for the arrival of your new addition! I hope for a smooth and quick delivery. I look forward to the ride down back to where we want our weight to be. I know we can do it.

Wow! I can't believe that much time has gone by already. Hope the little guy decides to join the world soon. At least we've had a cool summer so you haven't been roasting. :)

oooooooooh exiting baby ! yeah !!!!! Don't stress about the rest.

2011-03-13T13:55:36.290-07:00

I too have given up sugar and feel so much better!! The cravings are gone - I never thought that would happen. I have a good to recommend by Gary Taubes - Why We Get Fat and What to do About it. I know you will find it helpful. I'm going to follow your blog so I can check up on you!!

2011-03-11T18:32:52.065-08:00

When I was pg, I was sugar-free for the most part because of diabetes, but after the baby was born I went overboard making up for lost time. After about 8 years, I finally decided to stop. Please don't make my mistake!

I find now if I totally restrict sugar, it causes me to go off the deep end after a few months. So I'm trying to allow myself a little if I *really* want it.

Have fun with that baby belly. They are so much easier to take care of in there!

Congrats on making it through sugar free! I am pregnant, too, and the cravings are RIDICULOUS! For me, they are more about carbs than sugar but plenty of that, too. Now that my morning sickness is subsiding (sorry, don't mean to rub it in!), I am able to eat more healthily without wanting to you-know-what.

Hang in there!

Very impressive. I don't think I could go without sugar cold turkey like that.
