Skychick's Log

[skychick]

Hi Bunny..yeah, it's a little high in sugar, you're right. I just started this week allowing myself a daily treat (has to be under 250 cals) instead of a weekly cheat meal. I'm trying to find the right combo of what's going to be best for me physically and psychologically. I'm feeling like I need to loosen the reins a little bit and allow myself a little more sugar and fruit for awhile. I'll tighten back up after I get this burned-out feeling out of my system. What can I say? I like to experiment with tweaking things.
