Fat Guy on a Diet

This has by far been the hardest day I’ve had so far.  So many times I just wanted to break down and just eat whatever I wanted.  The day started off healthy enough – Megan and I took a trip out to Soulard Farmer’s Market to load up on fruits and veggies.   Before going out, I had a nice filling breakfast of grits and eggs, but once we got there, being surrounded by food, I was suddenly craving just about everything I saw.   Especially in some areas where they prepared food for consumption, I could smell the meats being grilled and it was all I wanted in the world.

I pulled through.  We almost stopped at Subway, but I eventually decided just to have a Marie Callender’s meal back at home for lunch.   With lunch, Megan cut up a mango.   I didn’t realize she had only prepared one dish, and accidentally ate it all myself.   We then each had a peach, and all was well in the world….

…. until about an hour later.  We started talking and craving sushi, which sparked my hunger.  I decided to have a bowl of soup to get it satiated.   I followed that with a vanilla pudding pack.

Eventually, it started getting late, and I needed to eat something before bed.   I decided on a cheese sandwich – just cheese, bread, and mustard.  It was tasty, but not extremely filling.   It was enough to keep me the rest of the night though.
