I can honestly say that I am really ready for this to be over. No it has not been a bad experience, quite the opposite, it has been a great experience but thirty days is a long time. Yes we are on day 24, after today we only have five days left I can make it but I am ready for it to end.
I seem to be noticing things that I can't have more and more. It's not that I have to have them or even want them, I am just noticing them and the fact that other people are eating them. Have you ever noticed that all the good prime time show have at least one or two scenes where the main characters are drinking wine? Well if you haven't I have, and they are constantly eating or cooking. It's not only TV, last night at Maddy's game Adrianna (coaches daughter ) was sitting in front of me eating lucky charms, I don't even like cereal but I was dying to take a handful of the sugary cereal with the marshmallows!!
It is getting harder not to "taste things as I am cooking them", or even cleaning up. Tonight I had a great dinner of bacon wrapped chicken and califlour, but the crappy Kraft macaroni and cheese was calling my name, I mean we did make the spirals and not the elbow so its an understandable urge to just want to take a taste. Again normally something I would not consider eating, but I just wanted a taste. At least I knew it wasn't going to taste good, so it was easy to just wrap it up and put it away.
Yes I am ready for this to be over, and I am ready to get rid of the restrictions that I have imposed on myself. I am not saying that I am going to go out next Wednesday and have a garbage plate (although it does sound pretty good right now.). I am going to have to slowly add certain things back into my diet, but it will feel nice to have the ability to choose.
The nice part is I know how the restrictions I have put on my diet make me feel, so my choices will be made based on what Ihave learned the past thirty days.
