One of the hardest things I am trying to do is get rid of unnecessary fats. Like butter, mayonnaise, bacon ect. Foods that really have no nutritional value and are just for flavor. Mayo was pretty easy – I bought some light mayo and it tasted so disgusting that I decided no mayo was better than light and just threw it away. Bacon is easy too, my husband didn’t like it much anyway so we just decided not to buy it. But Butter. O Butter. It’s so horrible and so yummy. Its hard too because anytime I eat any carbs or starches I put on gobs and gobs of butter. And I’m talking a lot of butter, I would cook with it, then add more. Its horrible. I think I just need to not buy it for a while, because I think it’s a food I can’t control myself around. And if it’s out of site it’s out of mind. Hopefully.

Rethought my meal plan a little bit. I am replacing dinner with a meal replacement shake, and eating a normal breakfast. The reason is because I always overeat at dinner time. I cant seem to help myself at night. In fact last night was a real struggle. I cooked myself dinner, a little croissant sandwich. It was really good and within my calorie limit. But after words, even after drinking a glass of water all I wanted was to eat another croissant. I know it was just carb cravings and not real hunger, but it was so hard. There were a couple times I went to the kitchen with the intention of eating it. I was surprised how much I wanted it. After about an hour, since I was still hungry I decided to have a few crackers. I only had 4 – about 60 calories. After I ate those my craving totally went away. I’m glad I had enough self control to not eat the big croissant, but I am a little worried about the cravings in general. I almost had NO Control. It was tough.

So today is the first day of the normal breakfast and shake for lunch/dinner. I know its going to be rough for the next few days. But I can do it. I just have to make sure I keep reminding myself of my goals.
