Somtimes I just want a piece of bread...with cheese...and a latte

So I am already 2.5 lbs down while in the middle of carb-free challenge for the month February...but the cravings are relentless!


When it comes to discipline, I have a mental rebelliousness within me, or you could chalk it up to good old fashion reverse psychology. I told myself no refined carbohydrates for one month and now I want them more than ever.  The moment I decided to get serious about weight loss, losing the weight was actually quite easy once I found a regiment I could click with -- in this case, I balanced 30 minutes of intense exercise with the basic concept of calories in, calories out.  Now that I am starting to concentrate on micro nutrition, however, the little devil on my shoulder keeps luring me back to decadent foods.  Where is my little shoulder angel when you need her?!

As of right now, all I can think about are baguettes with aged cheese; chocolate au pain, scones, biscuits and basically all baked shop goods; lattes, mochas, cappuccinos and everything at my local coffee shop; tempura, crab rangoons, cheese fries and everything that can fit in the deep fryer....I could go for one of everything right now.  You probably wondering why I am torturing myself like this?  Short answer: because I can.

Even better way to torture myself?  Food porn!  I guess this is how I will have to fix for now.  Just 22 days left!

Cheers!  P.S.  Enjoy the food porn!

Love your blog ... and your snarky attitude. I'd say go ahead and have the bread, but then I'd be an enabler. Thanks for sharing your adventures. I love checking in to see what you're up (or down) to! -Jacey http://thecourageouslife.blogspot.com
