The end of this week will mark the end of "No Sweets" in January. This used to be known as "No Sugar" in January, but the self appointed word police (engineers, lawyers, etc) caused me to make the name change. Their questions just wore me down! This is something that I have done the last 5-6 years and I always invite a group of people to make the journey with me. Many start, but only 1 each year will meet my challenge. This year, like last year, that person was Danielle!
The "Challenge" was born from necessity to undo the gluttony of the holidays. It looks like I will lose 2-3 pounds again this January which goes towards erasing the 5-6 pounds I gained at the end of the year. I hope to be back to my fighting weight by March as I continue to limit sweets, eat healthy, exercise moderation with portions, and hit the gym.
I believe that my first act as a successful participant of the "Challenge" gauntlet will be to make and eat banana bread. It only seems appropriate for the "anymonkeycan" man.
