First Night Out and Foodmares

Wow so I just woke up from my first food nightmare. It may have been because last night I went out for the first time in months and had a beer (which as I side note has 150 calories) and split some lovely fish stew and had a few pomme frites. Anyhow I don't know if it was because I had gone out and was not feeling guilty for enjoying myself at all or if it was unrelated but this is what I dreamt. I dreamt that I started eating sugar again, you know that refined crap they put in everything, anyway I was eating it and I couldn't stop eating it. In the dream I remember thinking "I just should never have started again my body can't handle sugar" as I lent over 3 different cakes and devoured them all. It was horrible, I couldn't stop! In my dream my addiction was soo severe. Anyway I woke up and assured myself that no I will not start eating sugar again, no way this freedom from it is to great.

I love being sugar free!

6 weeks and a day

I slept well last night, dreamed that I was in this coffee shop and just really wanted to have a soy latte. I was telling my partner just how long it had been and that I was going to have one when I looked at the espresso station and saw just how dirty it was. I stuck with an americano. I can't even seem to cheat in my dreams, now that's a strong will!

This morning I hopped on the scale to see that I had finally made it to 179 pounds, it will be interesting to see whether or not the clinic scale shows a loss tomorrow. I always find that by the time a get to the clinic and have my weigh in I'm up a couple of pounds. But it is still nice to see the scale moving downwards. Onwards and Downwards!

Dreaming

An interesting side effect: Since I started this diet I have been having these vivid fanciful dreams. They even become these short realistic waking dreams, I am prone to sleep walking but this is a whole new level. At least they are not bad dreams;)
