Today has been two weeks without soda except for club soda occasionally, a miracle for me, its also been two weeks since I've had anything sweeter than an occasional fruit bar. Last night was really hard not to start a snackathon. Sometimes, I just pray to fall asleep in the evening so the snacking craving will go away especially since I know that one snack can lead to another and another. The early part of the day is much easier and I do notice that what we have for dinner makes a difference, although the problem is that the lighter healthier dinners tend to make me hungry sooner and want to snack. So far, I have been able to not snack or limit it to soemthing like a popcicle, cucumbers, or seaweed snacks. I've also been putting on relaxing music from youtube to fall asleep so I don't lay awake in bed wanting to eat for too long. I also pray. 
Yesterday we went for a walk which is something we haven't done in ages. I did manage to go all the way around the park, although I had to sit three times. I limited the sits to three minutes. I would have preferred to leave the dog at home, but somebody else had other ideas. I am sure if we would walk him more often, he'd get used to going a steady pace instead of his combo of dwaddlefest and pullathon. He does love the park and it sad that he doesn't get walked much.
