Yeah, I haven't given up caffeine per se. Lots of green tea, as I have never been a coffee drinker.
I'm using maple syrup and honey for sweetening. And lots of fruit, so it's not much of a low carb regimen.
I've been making gummy treats with gelatin, fruit juice and honey. They are like grown-up Knox Blox. Tasty and healthy.
On Valentine's day, I made an impulse buy of three caramels. I thought the processed sugar would throw me down the well again, but it didn't. The three pieces lasted me two days!
The one thing that DID throw me off my stride was a tub of Indian yogurt from Costco. Mixing it with maple syrup was DELISH. But, it seemed to make me super cravy again. That was disappointing.
My slacker gift was sent to my giftee yesterday. You should get it next week.
Also, just to reassure potential Santa worries: I only check my post office box once or twice per week, so the "come and collect your gift" note might rest there for a few days till I get it.
Somehow I neglected to subscribe to this thread, so when I found it yesterday and spent yesterday and today catching up, I was breathless with laughter. I love us, I do.
I may have contributed in a small way to the general mayhem. And I got a Thor valentine from Spartacus, too!
I got a card from Spartacus today, wishing me a nice day. 'Twas a lovely thing to receive on a Monday. Thank you, Spartacus!
I am still getting Spartacus valentine cards. It's awesome.
Wow.
That Spartacus gets around.
Jealous
I got a mystery belated Valentine yesterday!
To anyone who has not been Spartacused, and would like to be, you might want to consider adding your information to the Buffista Master Mailing List. I can't promise mail, but it does make it easier for Spartacus to find you.
