Day 10
Well today has been high stress and low juice intake which is equal to massive food cravings and lots of temptation!
I spent most of the morning out grocery shopping and taking care of other errands. I only drank 1/2 quart of juice before I left the house and I was okay until I came home at around 2 o'clock, when I had more juice... Then my husband came home for a late lunch before he left for a weekend business trip that he is taking and it started me on an emotional path. I love my husband very much and I always miss him a lot when he is away, and then I realized that I was going to be home all alone (with my son, of course) and the first thing that my mind jumped to was:
What can I eat? Nobody will be home and nobody has to know!
I thought about all the options... Pizza, which is one of my favorites, came to mind, then some fried chicken, or maybe Mexican food? Oh, but what about those golden arches? Or one of my other favorites: Del Taco! I could hit up the BK Lounge, 'cause I haven't been there in FOREVER, and a big juicy burger sounds FANTASTIC!
Then I realized that I was being STUPID! Why was I all of a sudden wanting food? I thought about it and realized that nobody would be hurt by me eating but me. My husband wouldn't say anything, my son would not know... So why eat tonight and punish myself for it tomorrow?
I hate to admit that I kind of gave in though! I got up and made a sandwich, a REAL sandwich... I fried up some turkey meat, sliced up onions, tomatoes, cheese, and added some spinach, ranch dressing and grilled it up, cut it in half took about three bites and then threw it away and drank my juice.
My point? Sometimes you will give in to temptation, but you have to be stronger than that cold hearted mistress and bitch slap her down!
