Yesterday, my morning coffee was terrible. I had to go from using delicious Vanilla Caramel creamer and ½ packet of Splenda to heavy whipping cream and pure vanilla (YUCK). Not a good start to the day. Well, since no Splenda or sugar are allowed, this morning, I used the heavy whipping cream, pure vanilla, AND the powder mix from sugar free vanilla pudding. It’s actually pretty good! I’m enjoying my cup of coffee with my new secret ingredient : ). I definitely had a headache last night and this morning – it is apparent that I am an addict going through slight withdraw.
Last night, I got a phone call from the hospital I have been interviewing with for the past 2 months, and they offered me a job. PRAISE THE LORD. He knew exactly what was going to happen, while I waited confused for these 2 months. The new job will be in a brand new building about 2 miles from my house. It’s definitely a “foot in the door” type of job, but I am just so thankful to have one at all!
Anyway, the point of mentioning that was to tell you that we went out to Outback to celebrate last night, and we ordered the Bloomin’ Onion – and I couldn’t have the yummy sauce they serve with it because it has ketchup in it – and I just learned that ketchup is nearly 1/3 sugar!!! So far it has not been hard at all to not eat the blatantly obvious sweets, but it’s the things that I would never think have sugar in them (i.e. the bloomin’ onion sauce, milk, cream cheese, whole wheat pasta).
So it’s one day down, 29 to go! At least I’m learning a lot in the process.
