Sweets? Yes.
Salty? PLEASE!
It's just...so hard.
I could eat appetizers all day long.
BUT, again, I realize what I've been doing is not...doing anything. I feel bloated a lot of the times. I feel "full" all the time.
It took me a while over the course of the last five (5!!!) weeks that I almost forgot what it felt like to be hungry.
Like truly hungry.
I'm speeding up my metabolism, which is great. I'm finding myself snacking on healthier options and definitely keeping in mind portion control.
Literally. Instead of like a BOWLful of grapes, I now take like 5.
And I know I'll get tired of this too, but so far, it's my new favorite.
Rice cake with sunbutter on it. Sunbutter is fucking expensive ($6.50 for one jar of organic, creamy sunbutter - which Ava is allergic to!) But it's SO GOOD.
I mentioned this before, and I'm trying (really trying) to replace one meal with a shake. I haven't found a protein powder yet (ok, I haven't looked) so I put in Greek yogurt to give me some protein, along with a bunch of fruit to give me those extra vitamins.
I'm also just being super conscious of what I put on my plate at meal times. Last night I cooked some thick cut pork chops with red onions and a ketchup/brown sugar mixture and it was SO GOOD.
I ate probably 3oz of the meat and then did about 6oz roasted sweet potatoes and .5oz broccoli.
Just keeping going.
