Made it through breakfast and fought off the need for sourdough bread and tomato sandwich for lunch and made do with steak and cabbage but about mid-afternoon the want...THE NEED...for something sweet and filled (think chocolate covered cherries, those donuts with cream filling, lava cakes, you get the idea) had become almost overpowering. I was stomping through the house, snapping at everyone, sucking down water and telling myself that it's moronic, I do not NEED sweets, I do NOT.
Finally, after snarling at hubby for the third time in 10 minutes I got on the treadmill and did sprints for 30 minutes. Had weak, wobbly legs but at least I was back in control of the sugar cravings. Whipped up some more pan-fried steak and bacon-brussel sprouts for dinner and stayed out of the kitchen the rest of the day.
Not sure why the sudden cravings. After 6 days I was hoping to be past all this-but things are getting more stressful with the family trip coming up this weekend and hubby has another biz trip and is completely preoccupied with other things. If nothing else, this is showing what an emotional eater I am. *sigh*
