For the past week i’ve had the most terrible cravings for all kinds of junk. I can’t explain it - it’s like I MUST have it and that’s all I can think about at that moment. I want anything really sweet, anything salty and all fruit (that one’s not so bad).
I haven’t restricted since I had a friend’s party on tuesday and had chicken entree for dinner and small piece of cake. Also had a frappucino that day which is the rarest of the rare for me to do and totally unnecessary. Other nights i’ve had terrible cravings and have had a few tiny easter eggs, and often a couple of extra pieces of toast, and a little cereal and milk. This morning I had a waffle with a little bit of syrup. Not "clean" at all but nothing hugely devastating. I’m certainly not in a DEFICIT this week which pisses me off.
I’ve been so sedentary for months prior to starting up again that I did put on some weight - haven’t weighed myself but i’d say an extra 5-10 pounds, which I would love to lose by summer so my clothes actually fit well again. I need to control the cravings, especially at nighttime so I don’t eat anything extra. I’ll probably try to go to bed earlier if i’m not out, too.
My hormones are nuts, too. I’m going to stop with birth control pills as well. and I know that will help with weight loss and bloating, which will hopefully help me keep my sanityyyyyyy. I was thinking about getting the MIRENA IUD, or the copper one, but i’ve heard horror stories about them both from mom and sister and friends.. i dont like not being on birth control though. sigh
