Really bad cravings!

Postby BoPeep1 » June 21st, 2006, 1:07 pm

I don't know what's going on! Here I am, almost three months in, and I am having some really bad cravings. They are ALL carbs! This yummy looking cheesy rice Emeril made on TV, pizza, the KFC mashed potato bowl, french fries. I'm going nuts!

I have been under a bit of stress - an old client from work who didn't do anything for four months just popped up, doubling my workload. Money is always in the back of my head.

If this is my emotional eating trying to get the better of me, I have to thank MF, because otherwise I'd be giving in to those impulses!

Just hang in there. I do the same thing. I was really having it bad a week or 2 ago. Pizza was the worst. All I kept telling myself was when I get on maintenance I am going to order myself the largest pepperoni pizza they sell with xtra sauce and eat all I want and not share any! Just trying to psyche myself out to get past the cravings!

My hubby had one of those KFC bowls a few weeks ago and he really liked it. I thought I was gonna rip that bag open and eat that stuff before I got it home to him. Man the aroma was so yummy. I finally rolled the windows down and tried not to think about it. My family is always eating something yummy. LOL

Try not to think about it, and just remember how good you are going to look in all the new clothes you are gonna be buying when we get thin!

Brandi ~ You're doing great and showing a lot of persistence, but turn Emeril off. I'm not kidding. The other day, I was really having some awful cravings and then I realized I had been watching the Food Network for two hours. I had to go find something else to do.
