Sugar Addiction Challenge Day 3: Watermelon is My Friend!

Felt good this morning when I woke up. The morning was good; awake, motivated and no bad cravings. Ok, a little distracted, but with so many balls in the air right, it is easy to bounce around a bit!

Another big catered lunch meeting today, so there were tempting leftovers in the kitchen. The brownies and bread rolls shockingly didn’t phase me, but I did totally splurge on the rice. Probably not great for me (not brown rice), but it is still on my no sugar, no flour track, so I feel ok about it! 🙂  However, I do think I might have been substituting the rice for being tempted by the other naughties. It is tough when it is just there in your face. I wouldn’t have craved it if I hadn’t walked into the kitchen…that darn kitchen is an evil place!

I think rice ended up making me feel tired. By 3pm, I wanted to do a face plant on my desk! Started drinking a lot of water and ended up feeling better in about a half hour. I did avoid the break room though, because I always get bad cravings when I’m tired. Better to stay away from temptation.

I had a good evening; lots of energy and motivation. On the drive home from work, I was craving something (not sure what, just something), so I stopped at the grocery and bought fruit and pigged out on watermelon when I got home. That is one of my FAVORITE fruits and shockingly, though I think it is one of the sweetest fruits, it actually contains less natural sugar than most other fruit! So cravings satiated and got in some more good work before bed.
