[timetoact]

Said no when offered cake twice today..........determined not to give in to my sweet tooth today. Not easy at socials is it?

Hi Timetoact,

Well done for declining that cake - I agree, it is definitely challenging at Socials.

Hope you have had a great weekend.

It is a very difficult thing, doubly difficult as you battle with yourself but also others who easily offend if you say no to cake!! So well done 😊

I cut out refined sugar but do have sweet things in the form of fruit. I originally cut sugar completely for about 4 months. I now allow it on 'celebration days'

This means socially it is easier. So just on birthdays , weddings etc.

It has worked for me and I really enjoy the celebration!

I have such a sweet tooth and used to have at least a tablespoon of sugar on my cereal every day and for late night supper too, but for the last month I've substituted with a teaspoon of honey instead. and no supper. I've noticed now that my craving for anything between meals has stopped and I'm now finding it much easier to stick to my 1400 calorie allowance. You've done very well to resist those cakes so well done you. I know it's not easy but you can do it. Good luck this week

Go you. I get annoyed with people who offer cake when you tell them you're on a diet, then say just 1 piece won't hurt you.
