Day 161

No sugar added on Sunday. Went for a hike after church to Roxbourgh..it was so peaceful and quiet..it felt good to be outside and enjoying nature.

Day 160

No sugar added today. John, Tjabbie and I went over to Chatfield to look at the marina, it is of course, closed for the season because the lake is frozen over, but it felt good to be out and about.

I made some sugar free black bean brownies...they really did taste like brownies, but the strange thing was, I don't like how they taste...not even frozen. Does this mean I don't like brownies anymore? Maybe. It's funny how you build something up in your mind and then really, not that good.

Day 157

No sugar added. I forgot how chocolate centric Valentine's day is, it's everywhere.

Day 156

No sugar added....and I'm going to hop on the elliptical tonight for the first time since the horrible bronchitis.

So, I've been feeling very sorry for myself that I will reach my goal in September and 1. Not be living in Seattle where there are ample opportunties to sea kayak..and 2. That we will not be able to afford said sea kayak.

Today, I had a eureka moment! We live next to a lake..Chatfield, while not the same as the sea is a fairly decent size body of water. Not only that, but it's five minutes from our house, has sea kayaks you can rent and storage places where you can store said kayak. I then checked on craigslist and people seem to sell kayaks there..also, found a cheaper one that my dream kayak that we might be able to squeak out the money for....so instad of feeling sorry for myself, I now feel empowered to actually not only acheive my goal, BUT, also get my reward.

Now if summer would only come so I could go to the lake.

Day 155

No sugar added today...although I dreamt about lemon bars last night.

Day 154

No sugar added at the Super Bowl party. I took some crepes, frozen berries and whipped cream flavored with almond extract, cinamon and a touch of honey for dessert..so, so tasty and sugar free.

Day 153

No sugar added...so busy with school work that I forgot to post..but still sugar free.
