Happy New Year. Like many others, with the new year, comes new resolutions. Up until last night, yesterday would have been day 22 with no sweets. But I had 4 unsatisfying cookies that were made with very little sugar trying to satisfy our daughter's memories of past Christmases. She wanted to renew her old memories, but I wonder how much it satisfied? Our tradition of Italian Apricot Horns was a fond memory but she didn't want to be eating the sugar. Why oh why did I keep eating from that first batch that had been baked twice and was not even very good. I told myself it wouldn't matter since I was starting from scratch with the new year. Gee, I sound like the sugarholic, that I am. Any old excuse to indulge. Today I start over with a new resolve. I do have a goal, but it's a big one for me, so maybe it would be best unsaid but here goes. I would like to lose 25 lbs this year. I've done it before but I was younger and more fit. A couple of years ago it took me 8 months to lose 8 lbs. Then again, last year I lost 20 lbs in 6 months to join Debbie Cousins' challenge. But by the end, I was just dreaming of all the things I could have when it ended. I was very, very strict by that time: too strict to maintain. So this year I will give myself an entire year. I will go back to 1. no sweets, and 2. severely restrict high carbs. I am wishy-washy about bread. But wishy-washy doesn't win the war, does it? For example, even though I want to cut out wheat products I am having Crepes Ensanada for dinner made with flour tortillas because our daughter left a dinner's worth for us. I have it, it's made and ready, all I have to do is heat it, and I am going to eat it. That's how I plan to live: mostly easy. But no more French Toast for breakfast with my beloved La Brea Bakery bread. I get it free and it's from one of the top 10 bakeries in the United States. No wonder I'm "fluffy".
