This year, the new goal is no cheeseburgers or hot dogs. Its already been tough. I saw a commercial for the "Big Carl" the other day, and I thought, "ooh, I want to try that", but then remembered that I can't. Bummer. I think the biggest problems will come in the summer with BBQ's. I will be grilling a lot of chicken and bratwurst this year.
Every year, multiple people ask me why I'm doing it. I still don't have a good answer. Its not really for health reasons. I suppose the no soda thing made a difference in my caloric intake two years ago, but last year, I substituted for the candy with other sweets.
I guess the only answer is that I want to see if I can do it. This will be the hardest yet.

Well I think its awesome. Most of my goals fall into the category of... just doing it to do it.
Developing discipline is a worthy practice, whatever shape it takes. Self-mastery is why we're here. My only "motherly" comment is to suggest you seek for ways to hold onto the victories, adding upon rather than simply taking turns.
