Sugary Foods I'm Leaving Behind for July

I need to give myself some guidelines around what constitutes "sugar" for July's challenge.

Hilary, for the month of July, you are not to consume any of the following:

• Starbucks tea lattes (chai and Earl Grey)
• granola bars (Kashi cherry vanilla, Fiber One, Special K, etc)
• chocolate or anything containing chocolate
• icecream
• chocolate milk
• pancake syrup
• smoothies made with sugary add-ins
• baked goods (cupcakes, brownies, cake, donuts, cookies, pies)
• candy and candy bars 
• pudding/Jell-o 
• sugary cereal

When I find myself tempted, I need to do one of the following to distract myself from the cravings:

• call a friend
• read a book
• eat some fruit
• drink some water
• play with the cats
• when at work, get up and talk with a coworker or take a short walk
• remind yourself why you want to lose weight

Have I left off any sweets that you can think of?  How do you distract yourself from cravings (of any kind really)?
