3 Months!

I went 3 long months with no candy or soda. A serious feat for the sugar lover that I am. I didn't stop eating sweets though. So, in many cases, I substituted my candy cravings for other sugar-filled yummy's. But, even still. I did not have ANY candy for 3 months. Well, and then some. I don't remember the last day I had any in 2009. As the end of March approached, I started thinking long and hard about what I was up to with this whole situation. No candy. I'm sure my teeth and my dentist are happy about it. But, if I was doing this candy-fast to be healthier, I don't know if it worked the best because of the said substitutions. March 31st I made a decision. To end the Candy-fast. I went out and bought some of these:

for Easter. I think the increase in sugar made me a bit sick at first. I consider it a success that I'm no longer addicted. (We'll see how long it lasts though.) As for the soda, I'm fine to have that out of my life. One of our new favorite concoctions is pink lemonade with orange slices. We tried it at PeiWei. A delicious treat if you haven't had it!
