I feel blah
I feel very blah today. I woke up with a stuffy nose, and a sore throat. I don't know if it's because I just have allergies, or if it was because I ate like 100% cooked yesterday. I did ok until my hubby and his friend ordered Papa Johns, and I had just HAD to have 1 bread stick. But of course, 1 bread stick turned into 3, and then I had to eat a piece of pizza just cause, and some chicken wings (because I didn't want them to go to waste). Why is it that with cooked food I can just eat and eat and eat, but with raw I get filled up so fast? I'm not really mad at myself because of the food I ate, more like why I ate it. I didn't really need it, I wasn't that hungry even. I've decided food is seriously almost a drug to me. If it's there, in front of me, I have a really hard time resisting...it's almost impossible at this point. Then once I start I can't stop. It's weird because, take for instance the chicken wings...I wasn't craving them, I didn't particularly want them, but it was almost like my body was telling me I had to have them. It's not like this with raw food though, which is part of the reason why I think it's so good for me. I have a destructive relationship with cooked food, but a healthy one with raw. I am hoping that eating mostly raw will help me get over my destructive relationship, so that I can eat some cooked food once in awhile with self control, and a clear head. Oh well I am going to the store again today to buy some fresh food for the coming days, so I'll be prepared and ready the next time pizza comes my way!
