Cravings
Thank God we don’t have anything yummy in the house because I think I would be chowing down right about now. All of my normal tricks aren’t working. I have been snacking to keep my hunger at bay and got in a great workout. I can’t even pinpoint what I want to eat, I just want to eat!
The plan for now is to have an early supper so I can fill myself up with some protein and veggies. And I’m not going to allow myself to cave because I worry that if I cave today I won’t get back on track until next Monday when we start the 2nd installment of our Biggest Loser contest. You know, that could be part of my problem. One of my sisters is way in front of all of us so I don’t think there is any way I could win our contest. Part of me is thinking that if I can’t win this contest maybe I should go off the diet for a couple of days so I have good results when I go back on the diet. There will be close to $1000 at stake so it is well worth my time to find a way to win. Stupid, I know, but I am way too competitive for my own good.
So for now I’m going to stay the course. I have been craving waffles so I am going to allow myself to have waffles for breakfast on Sunday. It will be after the last weigh in and allow me to get the waffle cravings out of my system before the 12-week contest starts. My hubby is also going to join the contest, which is great, but he’s wanting to have all of his “last hurrahs” and is loading up on high-carb foods. One thing he wants is coconut creme pie which I would have trouble resisting so I told him I would not make it for him until Saturday. I figured I could resist it for 1 day until the weigh in and then I’d have some on Sunday.
The baby needs to be fed so I’m going to log off now. I hope everyone else is having a better day than I am.
