YUMMMMMMOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! I am going to replace the brown sugar with molasses. I bet they would be good with chopped apple. To bad I don't have any apples and the lady that does my shopping won't be going grocery shopping until next week.
This is gross I use to mash a banana and pour chocolate syrup over it and eat it.

It was just to much for me to say I needed to lose 120 pounds. That amount seemed impossible, so I started with a figure I thought I could do and that was 75 pounds. I'm just under 5'8" so 125 may be a bit thin, but I'll decide when I get down there.
Right now I am aiming to get below my husband, he's at 194. And, I would like to be at 135 by my birthday in Feb.

Well, ladies, I've decided to join weight watchers today because I really am having a difficult time staying with the program. Seems I really need someone to monitor me and get after me. My hubby tries but I don't like to listen to him!!! :) You all know how that is. LOL
Wish me luck.

I am worth having good, healthy foods to eat so I'm going to look into using alternative sweeteners like honey and agave syrup. I haven't tried a recipe yet, maybe I'll give it a few days to find the right one, but I want to make a tea cake to go with afternoon tea. I'm starting to feel good about this whole giving up sugar thing. lol
Proceed with caution when consuming products that contain sugar alcohols, as they can cause diarrhea, gas and GI discomfort.
Just wanted to mention that as most people do not realize that is also in their foods.

I am trying to check in each evening and let you all know how I am doing. I had put 2 lbs on when I wasn't able to do anything because of my hip. Standing and sitting was painful so exercising was out of the question. Well it quit hurting and I started back to exercising yesterday. Well I weighed myself and I took the 2lbs. back off along with and extra lb. YEAH!!!
My sweet cravings have stopped, yeah!!! Hopefully I won't crave sweets when it gets close to that time of the month.
I didn't get a good workout tonight because little man decided that he needed my attention for the silliest things. I think I got in 20 min. on the stationary bike and 40 sit ups. Atleast I got something done. LOL
