Cranky Monday

Well, it is Monday, and she is the bitch you tried breaking up with that just keeps stalking you and coming back................. She's especially not very pleasant when you are sick. I have not felt well most of Saturday night and all of Sunday with a cold that is kicking my butt.. I got through work and it was not that bad even though I was not feeling like my cheery self. A few co-workers kept joking that I was being Cranky, and I'll be honest, maybe I was not in the best of moods, but it is because in addition to being sick, my cravings won't shut up!

This diet is tough, I have lost 10 lbs in 5 days, and before you all go cheering for me, I don't know how much I trust that scale I got, but also, it shows how little I have eaten. I have followed my Doctor's diet, where I have 4 small, tiny, bland, flavorless, sometimes I feel like "I can't believe this is what I have to eat now, this sucks!"-meals.  Yes I want to loose more weight, but being sick, I crave all those "comfort" foods that I have had my whole life when ill. And they aren't the foods you would think. I am craving burgers, fries, ice cream CHOCOLATE, and all bad things I am not supposed to eat. Ok let's be honest, it isn't because I'm sick, it's because I'm on a diet, and being sick doesn't help. So yeah I am a bit cranky, but I will fight through it......it gets easier............RIGHT?! Please someone tell me it does (this is the part where you leave comments ok? Thanks!).

I will not give up on my new regiment, but I did start looking for the healthier options of my favorite foods. For example; I love ice cream, there's no denying it, and it LOVES me! So I did some research, and was able to get some sugar free 70 calorie raspberry/chocolate bars by blue bunny, and they are delicious. I know what you are all thinking........But you CAN'T! You cannot just give it all up, it has to be a give and take, I am exercising waking up at 5 am doing my 30 minutes of cardio, eating my small meals throughout the day full of vegetables, fruits, and good proteins, so I will treat myself with a healthy option for dessert.

In conclusion friends, I am feeling a bit beat from this cold, so I will just curl up with my boys, whom you've met, and my wife and watch some good ol' tv.....gotta keep some of the lazy habits before the diagnosis right?

Thanks for reading!
