Loving CC
I love Calorie Counting. It is so much better then any fad diet. I can eat almost anything I want in moderation or as a different variation such as whole grain wheat instead of white. Which honestly I don't taste that much of a difference. The best thing is I don't feel hungry. I have tried other diets, like Atkins and at the end of the day I felt limited and hungry. With Calorie Counting I have really learned to Listen to my body and let it tell me when I am really hungry.
First off if I start to feel a little hungry I will go get a bottle of water to see if that helps if ate recently.
Secondly once I get to that stage of feeling hungry I feed myself, but I do it with healthy foods that make me feel good about my body, my eating habits, and myself inside. I know it sounds silly but it gives me so much pride knowing that I bit the bullet and ate something healthy and good for my body and not junk food.
Tonight I did just that...I felt hungry and didn't want to sit and think about food, so I got a water bottle and a cup of grapes, And you know what after I ate those grapes I didn't feel hungry anymore. I don't need junk food to please my angry stomach...and I really don't feel like I need the junk food to be happy anymore.
I think eating junk and over eating has definitely been a emotional thing for me and I have come to realize there are other things in life I need to indulge in instead of food. Eating junk and over eating is not going to keep me here in the long run so I can watch my daughter grown up!
