Howitzerwife's Journal, 20 September 2009

I have been hitting the junk food as well... and I can always tell such a difference in how I feel. Even if I am eating it in small enough amounts to not gain or to even keep losing... it just makes me feel icky and drug down. I think I may be on my road to being one of those annoying health food nut people. 

I'm now on day two, everything I crave is something I can't have!!! I crave chocolate milk, chips cheese and salsa (which I can have but has to be 100% corn chips and fresh salsa) minus the cheese. Freakiest thing is I'm due to get A lot of blemishes this week and next, had one pop up this morning and went down by evening, guess all that water is giving me a detox, I PEE ALL THE TIME!! Glad to be back on water...was starting to hit the pop machine at work for a soda here and there to give me some caffine to help with the junk food sluggishness. I know two wrongs dont make a right...right??? Well got a three hour nap in tonight cause I'm sluggish on day two, couple more days and it will balance out. 

I generally have a soda mid afternoon. I ALWAYS get tired then. The kids are napping and the house is quiet and I have worked out and eaten... I try to keep it at one a day unless its something special. I do notice though that whenever I drink soda I want WATER. And lots of it afterwards. I end up so thirsty and those days where i start getting lazy and start drinking ALOT of soda... ugh I end up dying of thirst. I have no desire to give it up completely... I love the taste of a nice cold sweet (diet) mt dew from time to time. Guess I shouldnt talk about that here... make you want it more. cravings suck. When i crave something I can not have... I seem to just eat and eat and eat and eat.....
