So it was two weeks ago that I got really sick and went "off" food for three or four days. I have managed to change my habits quite a bit since then. I don't really ever eat more than 1800-2000 calories a day, which is a big change since I used to easily consume 2500. Most of it seems to come down to just snacking less. Also, I don't eat after dinner at all, and have gotten used to being hungry at bedtime. I wonder whether I have turned some sort of corner when it comes to my diet. I wonder whether I've reached some sort of turning point. I'm hoping so.
One thing I've kind of given up is cereal. It takes so much cereal to fill me up - a serving size makes me laugh. So that's just about gone from my diet. And other stuff I'm just eating less of. Plus I've been eating a LOT of soup. And I'm going to stick to the non-diet sodas even after lent. Artificial sweeteners are so bad for you, and here I was all worried that I'd gain weight if I drank regular coke, but I'm losing it. It's very strange, but it really seems true that artificial sweeteners actually make your sweet tooth stronger. I really don't get chocolate cravings any longer. I drink one or two small regular sodas each day - usually just one - and that does me for sugar. I've also been drinking a lot of water.
We'll see how it goes - I'm cautiously optimistic. Stats tomorrow.
