annefood Awesome @serveMEnow !! Have the late nights been hard? Looks like you're rocking it!
-
serveMEnow It's been much easier for sure. The scheduling of meals have definitely helped. I also took snacks into consideration - I snack in between meals so that I'm satiated more often. It's worked wonders.
-
annefood That's fantastic!
I made it 10 days on the The Stop Eating Before Bed Challenge!

annefood Woo hoo @serveMEnow ! How has it been going so far with getting home late from work etc?
-
serveMEnow It's been a bit challenging. I've gone to the extremes of just cleaning and doing a little extra work when I "accidentally" eat late at night and end up sleeping later - no bueno! However, I think...
-
annefood Yeah staying up later because you ate is definitely no bueno. In those circumstances I would try to eat easy to digest foods, take a free pass and go to bed. Not worth sacrificing your sleep! But...
I made it 3 days on the The Stop Eating Before Bed Challenge!

Thanks to @Foodstand and my daughter's personal motivations I have been rid of sodas for 55 days - AND I FEEL GREAT!
-
annefood WOO HOO @serveMEnow ! I'm so proud of you this is fantastic!!!
-
serveMEnow Thanks so much @annefood for your support. On to bigger and harder challenges for me - starting with not eating 2 hours before bed. So hard after getting home so late from work.
-
annefood That does make things tough, but you can do it! Plan healthy, portable things to eat ahead of time. You've got this @serveMEnow !
I'm in love with this and all the challenges here. I've not only avoided soda but also avoided any drinks with added sugar. #healthfirst

annefood Yeah @serveMEnow !! #HighFives ! How does it feel?
-
serveMEnow #highfives fosho! Feels so damn good! I'm literally ecstatic. I'll be honest, I initially avoided soda because my 11yo asked me to join her in her efforts to "only drink water." She's been water...
-
AMK Great job Chef! Feels good, doesn't it? I've been soda-free for awhile now - yay us! And your kid sounds AMAZING. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Seltzer water helps me reduce my soda cravings.
