Black Hole

No diaries for Tuesday and Wednesday. I have succumb to the black hole of dieting and have just written them off. I know this isn't the best thing to do but I think I went into sweetener overload on Tuesday and ended up going a bit dolally.

I tried to make cupcakes based on an angel food cake recipe and the amount of sweetener that went into them was just mind blowing. For some reason it seemed worse than if I was using sugar. It must be psychological, but I suppose I think of sweetener as rather artificial and unhealthy, whereas sugar is a least a natural substance. Add to the fact that I drink diet coke and I just felt a bit... well, weird.

Anyway, after the cupcakes - which were okay, but had the consistency of white bread and tasted a bit like brioche - I seemed to turn on my sweet tooth and that was that.

But back on it today. Will have to think of something to offset the last few days.
