I've embarked on quite an endeavor recently:
I'm finally going to eat right.
I've got a great coach, bought all the right types of food and snacks . . . but good grief if it isn't ridiculously hard.
I can't tell you how much I miss certain foods. And how much it drives me crazy that people around me just eat them without a care. I know not everyone eats the same way, but it just tests your willpower that much more.
So, to get it off my chest and to just torture myself more, I decided to make a list of the foods I miss. Both ones I knew I would when I started and ones I'm realizing I miss now that I can't have them.
- Chicken strips/nuggets/fingers: Big duh there. I can literally smell them whenever I get hungry. I just want some so bad!
- Cookies: I really want some cookies. Snickerdoodles. M&M cookies. Homemade oreos.
- Ice Cream: I want real ice cream. Especially after tasting a new flavor at Baskin Robins that was divine. Of course I would have it right before I decide to cut it out of my life.
- Snack foods: Popcorn. Pretzels. Tortilla chips and salsa or guacamole or queso. The list goes on and on.
- French fries: Yes. Please.
- Cheeseburgers: Turkey burgers are good for you, but they just don't taste the same.
- Chocolate: Need I say more?
I know there's tons more I could list, but now I'm getting crazy munchie.
Portion control, you say? Unfortunately, I know myself. I'm not good at portion control. So until I learn some, it's goodbye to all that good stuff.
Also, just because this made me laugh, I'm including it. It's how I feel every time I look in the fridge.
I'm gonna go eat my sugar free jell-o now . . .
