In Jazz class, the teacher always has sweets and its hard to say no when the table is right next to the piano (where i have to sit) for the entire class period. Any tips on how to tell myself to sa...

DietID_TeamDietitians Gosh, that sounds like torture! But rest assured, we have some ideas for you. First, you can ask the teacher to either move the candy bowl or put it away during class. When it's out of sight, it's...

SallyRogers This one is tough for me! I find that if I have one of my splurge meals times during the weekend, I do better at sticking with a pseudo-weekday routine before and after because I'm so looking...
Soda Substitute: What's a good substitute for soda? What drinks?
-
Lotta I drink water and sometimes put fruit and berries in it :) Sparkling water seems to be a popular alternative, but I personally hate the taste :D
-
DietID_TeamDietitians @RegannePreece - I totally agree with @Lotta. Putting frozen fruit in water or sparkling water is a great way to add flavor without added sugar. I also like hot cinnamon tea. The cinnamon has...

-
DietID_TeamDietitians So good to hear no food waste is already a rule! Try no added sugar. You get a few free passes so it's not about going cold turkey, but instead cutting back.

Soda Challenge
I'm halfway on the 30-day soda challenge. I have some free passes from earlier challenges, so what happens if I choose to have soda on Christmas and use a pass? Does it extend my challenge?
-
Lotta Thank you :) I haven't had soda at all during the soda challenges, so I thought the passes were from earlier challenges, but I seem to have 5 to use for this one :D
-
annefood Yes exactly! 5 slips over 30 days. And congrats for not using any passes in your previous levels! That's fantastic!
