A little fudge, a few truffles, who really cares?
Ok, folks, one would think that eating a few pieces of fudge and a few truffles would be no big deal. I am sure that is the truth of the matter, because that is what I did, Christmas day, and Christmas Eve. Now a week later I am fighting a cold. I have not been sick since I started to eat clean.
Is sugar really that bad for you? I think it is bad for you, but I have to admit, it was an equation of many unhealthy practices. Here is what my holiday equation looked like. Boy I guess when I throw caution to the wind, I do it in completeness…
Fudge + No time to take vitamins + staying up really late + lot’s of guest and constant activity + no exercise = a cold…….
I hope I have learned my lesson…. Yikes…. I feel like crap….

Wow Sonya, you just gave me an epiphany. Dec was a mth I planned to eat very clean to try to uncover some abs. (see my blog today w/ Dec31 progress pics & mixed bag of results…).
Anyway, I’ve struggled for this past week with massive chest congestion during cardio. I never put it together. After eating squeaky clean for the 1st 15-16 days, I crashed & burned with the diet for 8-9 days, due to combined 1) vacation, 2) 2 b-days, 3) a wedding, and 4) holiday family gathering foodfests (they eat at 9-10pm!!!). The only saving grace was continued w/o’s during all this.
Now, to further improve this progress pics…..Happy New Yr’s.
