Day 27: Building Muscle

I want Pizza. So very badly.

Tonight we were out doing stuff through the evening and we didn't really have dinner. I had scrambled eggs around 4 and then we were out and about. I knew we would be going to the grocery store at some point in the evening so I figured we'd get something to have for dinner.

Well we didn't get home till 8:45 and when we got home and put all the groceries away, I looked in the fridge and thought, "There's nothing to eat." *facepalm*

That's one of the hardest parts of this diet. Healthy food is not fast. 

Basically any food that you eat takes some amount of prep, unless you literally just want to eat straight fruit or veggies. I was so hungry standing there at the fridge and I just had this overwhelming desire for pizza.

The kind that fills you up with a few bites but you continue to eat 4 pieces.

So I settled on guacamole with tuna. It's actually very good and I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that if I had chosen pizza I would feel terrible right now, mentally and physically.

This is one of the many reasons I wanted to do this. Self control is like a muscle; the more you use it the stronger it gets and the easier it is to do hard stuff.
