So here's the deal. I've been having some real moments of weakness. I like eating healthy, because it makes me feel good. This isn't something that I want to give up, because I like feeling good. BUT, no matter how much or how long I avoid them, I can't stop craving things that are really terrible for me. Ultimate Cheddar Munchies are always on my mind... it's kind of sad really. The past two weeks, I've really just wanted a hamburger, french fries, and a milk shake. There just aren't healthy substitutes for things that are that good. I thought avoiding them would work, because now when I do eat these things they make me pretty sick, but no. It's always worth that 10 minutes of heaven for the 3-5 hours of stomach pains.
This would usually be the part of the blog where I tell you my solution to this problem. Unfortunately, I haven't found one. This is just me being real with you. These past few days I've just been really off track, and today I hit one of those points where I said to myself, "It's time to get your life back together..." It sounds dramatic, but it's true. When I go off the wagon and eat whatever I want I'm happy for a short while, but I feel like crap as my belly expands, and my motivation decreases.
There are 5 major moments of weakness that you need to look out for! Maybe if you're aware of the occasions where you're most likely to jump off the wagon, you can better prepare yourself.
1. On Vacation
2. After a Break-Up
3. A Party With Great Food
4. Watching TV
5. At A Buffet, or Restaurant with Enormous Portions
