I realized today that 80/20 probably isn't a safe thing for me. On one hand I've been eating more veggies (thank goodness for Farmer's Markets and end of summer deliciousness!) and lots of healthy fat. On the other, every night I've given in to the craving of a peanut butter cup. And no, not the primal version, the Reese's version.

So, I haven't had ANY grains this month. But in the Reese's are soy, sugar, lactose, nonfat milk (and then strangely milk fat, why not just use regular milk??), some chemical stuff as a preservative...not exactly happy, healthy food. But damn it tastes good. And I'm staying under 100 carbs a day, and I feel great, and...

*sigh*

Honestly, I don't think its the sugar, I think its milk chocolate. That creamy taste, the smell, the color, the way it glues itself to your fingers and has to be sucked off. Mixing cocoa with a sweetener (coconut milk, fruit, etc) just doesn't cut it, even though it is healthier and doesn't taste bad-its just not milk chocolate.

So, how did you kick your worst eating habit? What's that one food that is just refusing to leave?
