Sugar challenge was interesting!

So, when I first read the challenge, I thought, no way! I cant do that! and then I realized, that in the last 3 weeks, I have been perfectly on menu (with the exception of twice missing one of my 6 meals), so in those the weeks, I had a pack or Rolos one week, less than half of a small shake the 2nd week, and a cup of coffee with french vanilla creamer the 3rd week, and that was ALL the sugar I have had in the last 3 weeks! I do drink fruit juices, but they are all 100% fruit juice, so I havent been drinking soda or lemonade or anything like that for a while. Interestingly enough, the challenge has been a bit tougher than I thought it would be, because I have been having some mad chocolate cravings! but even the ho-hos sitting on a desk here at work (that I have to walk by multiple times a day) have managed to stay out of my mouth! yesterday was tough to keep walking by and ignoring them, but I did it! Today, I weighed in and realized I'm only .4 lbs from being in the 230's, and I havent been there since about 2001! that was enough motivation to avoid the ho-ho's today, and should carry me through the rest of the week!

I've actually been feeling really good about my exercise and activity levels lately too. My calorie burn has been anywhere between 2800 and 3680 calories (my highest burn ever, and it was on a day I didnt work out, went to Boondocks and played the whole day, and it was awesome!), so my numbers are looking good, and I finally have my menu at a place where I'm comfortable with the amounts and what I'm doing. I still have my own water goals, since that is still one of my biggest struggles, last week, I had a goal to drink 3 bottles, which would be 96 oz, I didnt hit that any day, but was well over 80 oz most days. However, this week, I dropped back down, and barely hitting 64 oz most days, so I need to kick that one up for sure!
