So.. I did not realize just how addicting sugar was. This has got to be one of the hardest things I've ever done (for those of you who are like "what it she talking about..." I challenged myself to a month without sweets). Thanks to Mema's birthday party (that's an excuse to cheat, right? nope) I've had to start over, and this is Day 9. Without processed sugars, I've been craving bananas, juice.. my body is trying to find sugar in other foods since I've cut out the cookies. Not easy!! Worth it, though. I'm determined to get to Day 30 and see healthy results. More to come!

Flippin' Sweet Challenge
So after years of acne breakouts on and off.. and seeing way too many Nike quotes and fitness tips on Pinterest... I have decided to give up sugar/sweets for 30 days. It's something I've never done before, so it should be interesting!! I'll keep you posted on how I'm feeling (and whether I've had a meltdown over missing the Oreos) as the weeks go by. Processed sugars work against our bodies, not for them.. and I want to see what it's like to fuel my body without dessert. Healthy tips coming your way soon!

Joy
"In Your presence is fullness of JOY.." Psalm 16:11
Contrary to what the world believes, being in the presence of God is the one and only thing that can satisfy us completely. The Bible promises JOY in His presence!! I don't know about you, but I like to be around happy people.. things that make me happy.. Jesus is always happy and in a good mood :) seek His face today and discover an overwhelming joy! If would like prayer for something and/or you're wanting to know more about Jesus, don't hesitate to contact me or Brittany! Have a blessed week.
