Yesterday was a mental struggle. Jeff wanted to take Kaebrie and I out to lunch at our favorite Chinese restaurant. Before we got there, I thought for sure I would be fine, joke was on me. I wanted to order my usual of egg drop soup, cashew chicken, and steamed white rice. But instead I ordered one large plate of steamed vegetables. I did it! I was tempted to throw the towel in but didn't! My fortune was very spot on considering my current adventure! No, I didn't eat the cookie:(
Then, Jeff and I had date night. We went to Market Street Grill in SLC. Once again, I knew I would be fine. They served up a large loaf of bread before our meal came out and I sat and watched Jeff savor it. I know what that stupid bread tastes like, I don't need it! Then our meal came with a cupcake for dessert. I sat and had a mental picture of me eating it and then me having a complete mental breakdown because I knew I would have to start all over on this. I think the worst days are over with. Today, day four, has been perfect. My cravings are near gone. I am still running low on energy and feeling a little lightheaded. Overall, I feel much better than I did last Friday when I was contemplating a trip to the ER. Dinner is in the crock pot so no more temptations today!
