My name is amieK and as of today, I am a recovering sugar addict.

Over the duration of my college course last fall and the holidays I fell off the wagon and allowed myself just a little taste of chocolate. Yeah right! We all know where that leads to. In this case an extra 9 lbs.

Anyway this past weekend was a real low. I ended up eating 4 candy canes, (2 regular size and 2 mini), along with 2 squares of semisweet baking chocolate to get that chocolate mint flavour. YUCK!! Woke up the next day with a horrible sugar hangover.

Yesterday was a slight improvement but I got into some chocolate chips leftover from some baking my daughter did for school.

Well today is a brand new day. I'm going to eat healthy and LC today. I am on Week 2 of my new strength training program and that is going well. Time to get my eating habits back on track.

Thanks for listening. I've been away for awhile.
