Good afternoon. I slept well, 11 hours. I did laundry today. Also played some of my videogame. And read my book for an hour. Meditated for 20 minutes.

Since I cut out sweets for the most part, I’ve lost weight. I still crave them obsessively though. It’s like the only thing running through my mind, “I wish I had some little Debbie snack cakes, I wish I had some pastries, cheesecake would be good right now, ice cream sounds good too …” etc on and on a constant stream. I feel kind of irritated from it. Idk if you can get withdrawal from cutting out large amounts of sweets but I’m so irritable and all I can think about is how much I want them right now. Ugh. It’s a slippery slope though. Cause when I have them it all goes downhill and I end up bingeing on them every. Single. Time. I know it’ll get better. Cause like 6 or 7 years ago I went without sweets for well over a year and I completely didn’t think about them after a certain point. It’s just a matter of getting through the first couple weeks.

I also cut out coffee which is making things more complicated. I feel low energy. I went from 6-8 cups a day daily for years to none. So I’m thinking of adding it back but just doing one cup a day and being really strict about it. I think I’ll make it a special time every morning. I’ll have my coffee and watch some of my favorite shows.

I am making two pies for Thanksgiving but I’m giving half of each to my sister. But that’s a special occasion.
