Now that I've kicked soda and juice as the beverages of choice, I'm forced to drink...ugh....water. Lots of water. I believe all this water drinkage has helped me get to 283 pounds, a reduction of 6 pounds since I started this experiment!
Still no junk food for me :( Last night I went to Safeway, and they had the most lucious, most junkiest junkfood one could imagine; velvety smooth chocolate cakes, ice cream, cookies, ahhh the cookies. I'm usually not a cookie eater, but a box of lemon creams called my name so sweetly it was all I could do to hold myself back from grabbing it and showering it with love.
It's not easy giving up junk food. There's a whole lot of it out there, and it seems to overwhelm the healthy food. I guess if you're a big beefy raspberry danish, up against a coweringly little carrot stick, well you're just going to have to kick sand in the face of that little carrot stick, now won't you? I think the junkfood to healthyfood ratio is about 25:1 in the grocery store. You will even find junkfood in the healthy food areas. Health food never crosses that junkfood boundary though. Though you will often find stuff like a container of tofu in the potato chip aisle. It's only there because some poor sap, made the mistake of carting her tofu into the danger zone, and then succumbed to temptation and swapped the tofu for an extra large bag of Ruffles and a jar of conveniently located, very junkfoody, ranch dip.
It's a conspiracy I tell ya! I am 60 hours down, 8724 hours to go, JUNKFOOD FREE!!!!
