Day 96
“Leave the guns, take the cannoli.”
Confession time!
I was craving carbohydrates yesterday and I think I know why. On Sunday night my husband picked up dinner from The Pasta Shop which included a cannoli dessert. One dessert comes with three cannoli. We’ve never had them and I can’t even tell you how good they were. I wasn’t fazed when he ordered the cannoli. I just knew that was off my list, and I’d avoid it. Well, it didn’t work out that way. When I opened the box and saw the cannoli, I just picked one up and took a bite. This is so unlike me, and I don’t know what happened. Was it the site of the cannoli? Was it that we never ever have cannoli – ever!
I ate one whole cannolo and my husband devoured the other two. Heaven. Then yesterday, I felt like I wanted carbs after lunch, so I had an apple with almond butter and that was very satisfying.
Maybe I am one of those sugar sensitive people that I’m learning about in “Potatoes not Prozac.” My Sugar Free Year journey has really made me examine sugar in my life. If I just went sugar free for a month, it would have been a breeze. I’m coming up to 100 days, and I feel like I might just be starting to learn about my relationship with the sugar drug.
