First challenge overcome with success!!! So proud of myself!!
So my gfs (who didnt know I have made the FTS lifestyle change) asked me if I wanted to go on a mini roadtrip today to a few towns over ... I agreed and they wanted to stop for lunch at one of those side of the highway homecooked meal trucker stops ... you know the ones ... the greasy spoons that have the best fattening foods for all those truckers out there
Anyway they ordered their food ... and I asked the waitress if she wouldnt mind preparing me some bacon chicken and cheese no bun lol my gfs were thinking what in the world ... then I explained it to them what I was doing ....
the challenge came at dessert time .... this place had every dessert and pie you could imagine and of course my friends ordered some ... I was salivating lol but I knew that 4 days in 5.7lbs later I would not let some lemon meringue get in the way of my new destiny
Im so proud of myself for not caving ... and then I went to the cinema tonight and my friends had soda, popcorn, candy and it was all around me .. i had some russel stovers sugar free candies to suck on and water
What a glorious day ... this never wouldve happened in the past!! I wouldve told myself its ok to cheat a bit ... but I look at foods now and a sugar calculator starts going off in my head and I get grossed out ... I think living near a sugar factory in downtown Toronto turned me off of actual sugar (in case you dont know sugar factories smell disgusting and emit a foul odor when they refine sugar) so to think that most of those foods would be like eating actual sugar .... barf!!!
Doug you are a genius!!!
