Sugar, Sugar

As I continue on my mission to a leaner and toner body, I have decided to cut down on the sweets. I type this as an impulse shopping bag of peach rings sit on my kitchen counter.
It actually hasn't been as bad as I thought. I've never been an obsessive sugar freak but I have my objects of affection like Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie, soda, and Chick-Fil A sweet tea. OMG! Chick-Fil A sweet tea is the absolute best! But I haven't had one in over a week which is awesome for me because the food court is adjacent to my store. I've opted for water a lot more these past couple of weeks and my skin has reaped the benefits.

I've been doing well with the lifestyle change. I am on day four of my body cleanse, I've been sticking to my workouts, and I'm eating the right things. Limiting not only sugar but salt also, even though I never was one to add table salt to anything. Brandon and I went grocery shopping yesterday and loaded up on fruits and veggies. A lot of easy to prepare breakfast foods so I can grab and go and stay out of the food court in the morning. Chickn Minis are the devil! Of course I had to get B's impulse snacks; Doritos, Lucky Charms, Capri Sun, whole milk for the Lucky Charms. I prefer soy milk and he hates it. I'm also trying to watch the calories and the worst is my Syntha-6 protein post workout. 200 calories per 1 scoop but 23g of protein. I'm bad because I preach about how you take protein for results and not taste and here I am with this high cal stuff. I even ventured out and made a smoothie. Protein, soy milk, mixed berries, flax,yogurt, and ice. It was yummy and filling. I'm really thinking about adding Pilate's to my program.

I'm open to any and all suggestions with help on reaching my goal. :)
