Well, after being so upset with mysef about my weight – I decided to step back up to the plate…..hahaha….I just realized that phrase is exactly what I don’t want to be doing.
Anyhooooo………
Jon and I have a weekly date and we are going for Sushi tomorrow.
I had a little chat with myself on Sunday and very sternly told myself that if I didn’t behave and eat well all week, then I’d not be able to go for Sushi on Thursday. I really wanted to go for sushi and so…..I’ve been really good the last 3 days.
I’ve eaten veggies, veggies, and more veggies; fruit, some meat, some nuts, some grains and then calling it a day. Not necessarily in that order, but in that volume. Do ya know what I mean…lots of veggies, less fruit, less meat, less nuts and even less grains?
I still don’t know if that really makes sesne, but I don’t care – I’m moving on.
I’ve done fine until this afternoon…well, I had a moment last night where I wanted “something” and settled for nothing. It’ was really quite delicious! Ha Ha Ha! Okay, not funny at all.
This afternoon was hard. I hit that 2:30 – 3:00pm wall and just wanted chocolate or a donut or cake or something with sugar and carbs in it.
I resisted and now, here I am. It’s 10 minutes to 10 o’clock and I’m hungry. Not gonna eat, but seriously thinkin’ about it and that’s why I’m here.
So you can all keep me accountable.
So, I’m gonna go and chug some water and then go to bed…..can’t eat while I’m sleeping can I?
What do you all do to combat the cravings? What’s worse for you – the afternoon’s or the evenings?
The evenings. I was just talking to a friend about it and she mentioned that if I am actually hungry at 8pm (not just wanting to snack), then maybe I am not getting enough protein at supper. So, I decided to up my chicken drump stick one, so now I am having 2 at supper. I also noticed that when we have home made burgers, I usually have 2, and am “stuffed”, and don’t usually snack those nights. I have a really hard time sleeping when I am hungry. Sometimes I’ll have a cup of tea on the nights I want to “snack”.
evenings for sure are the worst for me, I think all the years of rewarding myself when the kids went to bed and stayed there!! so now when the urge hits I drink so much water, but of late I have been eating dinner late cuz our schedule is all messed up and with J sick I am cooking…. I have realized that I no longer enjoy cooking! I would rather be served 🙂
