My late night snack the other night, while it didn't show up on the scale the following morning unleashed a world of cravings into my world yesterday. Last January when I did the three week liquid fast, I missed chewing, and with the occasional deviation, stayed pretty committed. My committment stemmed from a decision to do something for a short period of time for a specific purpose. Without that committment hanging over my head this time, I had a hard time staying focused and resisting food.
My morning started out with my protein shake, and I soon moved onto my carrots, protein bar, applesauce and other snacks that I brought with me to work. When a co-worker proposed my favorite lunch of chicken kabobs and the most delicious rice on the planet, I was able to resist. But, when another co-worker proposed a sandwich, I gave in. It was a turkey pita wrap with apples, bacon and mayo. I only got a half sandwich, but indulged in the potato chips. So salty, so good.
I was able to pull it together by evening. I ran four miles before the kids' open house and had my recovery protein shake before calling it a night and going to bed.
