GIVING UP SUGAR


Yet another tweak to my diet and exercise program.  I am trying to avoid sugar.  I started on Ash Wednesday.  It's not entirely a fast for lent, but it is a good place to start!  I know that sugar is in lots of food, but I've eliminated the sweets and goodies.  I said no to a piece of birthday cake yesterday and have ignored chocolate several times, which is very tough especially in the afternoon around 3. 
What else goes great with coffee?  I am having protein  for breakfast and a tablespoon of coconut oil
in my first morning cup of coffee.  This combined with my jog/walking for 2 miles 3 times a week and aerobics twice a week should make a difference.  I'm feeling better in my clothes, so that's a good sign!  Keep on trying out there and if you need an aerobics class, come see me at Harwich community Center on Tuesdays at 8:30 and Thursdays at 9:30.
