Sun 11 Mar

Doing pretty well on my sugar reduction plan (except for the two ponczkas). I found myself looking at lots of sugary treats at Aldi's yesterday but putting them back on the shelves. I will try to do Easter basket shopping (except for Grandma) with a less sugar, more healthy treats idea in mind. Suggestions are most welcome.

When I enter a food into the SparkPeople food log, it will sometimes suggest an alternate word when it doesn't recognize what I have entered. When I put in "ponczka", it asked me if I meant "panicky".

Deb McComas has to have another bladder surgery just one year after the last one as the previous "fix" is wearing out. Heckuva way to spend spring break.

Good nap this afternoon, most welcome since I did not sleep very well last night.

I am happy that I'm quite satisfied with a slice of Irish soda bread as a snack, as opposed to sweets. The bread has a slightly sweet dough, but it's subtle enough that it wouldn't have satisfied a sweet tooth. Also satisfied myself with half a large banana for dessert as opposed to other sweets. (And last night's rum-soaked grilled pineapple was as good a dessert as you could want!) I expect to sample the local desserts in Jamaica, but they are often fruit- or coconut-based.
