For the last few weeks I’ve been eating much better overall. Not great but better than usual overall. Where I used to stop for a fast food breakfast every morning I’ve replaced that with a low cal/carb protein shake and protein bar. I’ve upped my daily water drastically. I’ve been making much healthier choices meal-wise overall. Again, not perfect as I’ve had some pretty big splurge meals (like a steak dinner last night), but much better. To the tune of losing about 20 pounds so far…and that’s before the major diet change the 2 weeks before surgery.
But I am telling you what…today I just want junk food. The craving is so strong it’s ridiculous! I work about 15 steps away from a vending machine with chips and sodas and candy….and I am fighting every urge to go get a Mountain Dew and a Twix bar! I just had a stick of beef jerky, which helped a little, but I still want it so bad.
Truth be told, that is mostly why I am typing this. Just to take my mind off of the desire to get that junk food.
Anyway, just keeping it real.
