I’ve been eating a ton of junk food. The more junk food I eat, the more I want junk food. They should call it funk food.
Let me just tell you about the past couple days. Chick-Fil-A. Chinese food. Tropical Smoothie…twice.
This has been going on for at least three weeks. And I can totally tell. I’m lethargic. And cranky. And all I want to do is stuff my face full of Oreos. It’s stupid.
In my defense, it’s been a really busy week. But that’s no excuse. I can do better. My priorities are out of whack.
So I tried to fix it with supper tonight. I channeled the mantra my mom preached to me while sitting at the dinner table when I was a little girl.
She’d say this because I had a tendency to not eat whatever she cooked for supper, and then I’d ask for cereal or scrambled eggs or little green peas at 10’o clock at night.
I made a turkey sandwich on a whole wheat English muffin. I topped it with cheese, greens and a bit of ranch dressing. There was also a side of baby carrots.
And that is supper.
Not fast food. Not junk food. Just a light meal to help get me on the right track.
This is a perfect little dinner. Just to reassure you, junk food does have addictive elements, which is why we can’t stop once we start, the best way to stop the addiction is to stop it all together, the less you have it, the less you want it 🙂 good luck!
