Before After

Friday Weigh In

TODAY I WILL MINIMIZE MY SUGAR.

A Swedish study, which looked at 64,500 people, linked raised blood sugar with pancreas, skin, womb and urinary tract cancers in women.  The average American consumes as much as 175 lbs.  Yikes!

When I read that I was floored!  Can you imagine how much sugar I consume yearly if the "average" consumer consumes 175 lbs yearly? 

Back to some good news!  I stepped on the scale this morning totally expecting to stay the same or even to have gained a lb or two but to my surprised I lost 2 lbs!!!  You know I dodged a bullet because I cheated by devouring 3 fried Maryland crabcakes (my weakness) and a bowl of chicken and dumplings.  BTW, anything crispy, crunchy are weaknesses.  I'll take the 2 lbs. and run with it.

MY GOALS FOR THIS WEEK

Be aware of sugars in my food, including fruits;

Be more vigilant about getting walking in;

Be more of a support to so many bloggers that have helped me so much in this weight loss journey.

Have a Happy and Healthy week!

Fruit sugars are bad

Are fruit sugars bad then?  I thought they did not raise blood sugar in a bad way?

Well done on the 2lbs loss :D  That is excellent.

THANKS

I appreciate you stopping by my blog!  I hope the insurance comes off too...  my hub sd this week... but sometimes it takes longer...

i hope.. i hope... i hope!!

thanks again!   looks like you are kicking butt and taking names girl!!  20 pounds!!  YEAH!

love, jen

yeah sugar isn't great.

but what you really need to watch out for is high fructose corn syrup. That is in everything.  It drives me insane when I'm looking for something as innocent as bread and the HFC is the sweetener.  

Congrats on the 2lb loss. :) That's great.
