I made it through the party, but I was feeling that craving gnawing on my brain like a carpenter bee (Google it, too long to explain here :)). I think I was lacking in food stuff from the get go and that put me in a bad mood. All I could think about was eating a giant watermelon, or salad, or a whole pint of blueberries, but I had none. Brunch was great. Big salad from the Diner. I ordered the Taco salad minus the cheese, sour cream, grilled chicken and dressing. I did get the proverbial..."no chicken?" from the waitress, but the cooks handled my requests and no I didn't feel bad...after all I was a paying customer.
But here's the thing, salad satisfies, but doesn't last long and a few hours later, I was hungry and without snacks (a bad combination for me). Our next meal was at another diner a few hours later and I will just say this...it was awful. The salad was fine, but the fruit was rotten and surrounded by cottage cheese, which I did not know about. Off to the store we went for food, food and more food. I was in heaven in the produce section and purchased $62 worth of fruits and veggies. Luckily, we were on our way to Angie's (Josh's sister) and I proceeded to dice, chop, slice and cube my way to a large, satisfying salad, with spare food for the flight home.
All in all, a day of mixed emotions and cravings, but I stuck with my plan and saw it through to the end. Success!
Peace,
Alene :)
