Craziest Thing!

I got a decent fill...and I haven't spent the whole week thinking about food! It's amazing! Yeah ok...I might have a slow leak, and yeah, I might only get to feel like this for a little while, but this week, it really helped my BRAIN...you know?

I spend a LOT of time thinking about food. What I'm going to "get to eat" next. Like everything is a big exciting treat, rather than fuel to keep my body running. And so, as a result, I spend a lot of time fighting the desire to eat, or feeling guilty because of what I wasn't strong enough to resist eating. And I HATE HATE HATE that fucking FOOD takes up so much of my thought process! Why can't it be world peace, or mathematical equations, or how to solve the deficit? Nope. It's hot wings.

But this week...after the fill...I have noticed a change in how much I THINK about food. I noticed too that I can eat less, but it's the change in my brain that has really blown me away. That said, last night, I didn't eat dinner, and it was like 11:30pm, and I was driving home, and all I wanted in this world was to stop at McDonalds (and I don't even LIKE McDonalds) and get a McChicken sammich. I did NOT do that. But my gods did I want to! Why is it that when we are really really STARVING, we crave crap? Why was I not craving a delicious grilled chicken breast and some roasted asparagus, huh?? Stupid fatty-brain!

Those are my thoughts this fine Sunday morning.

  2. Soooo been there done that. The thinking about food 24/7. For realz. 2am I got up - and all I could think about was sleeping faster so I could get up and eat breakfast sooner.

  3. I know the feeling, sometimes I crave things like KFC, which I don't even like eating!

  8. Wow, that's what we're all working towards! Food not being the focal point of our existence. I LOVE it! Thank you for sharing that.
