A Million Little MiniFruits...
So I've been thinking how basically I've traded one addiction (food) for another (weight loss). There are a lot of odd similarities. I've got to weigh myself every morning and if I miss a day I'm kind of *tweaked* all day and feel like I forgot to do something VERY important but weighing myself later in the day is too risky! And if I go more than a couple days without showing a loss, I swear I get so irritable and cranky! It is like I'm going through weight loss withdrawals. I think in many ways the process (and reward structure) of losing weight is astoundingly addictive.
Unrelated, I was looking around this evening for a fruit serving and happened upon some Gerrber Graduates Minifruits on the shelf. Okay, I thought. I need to know something about what he's eating, right? Yeah. Well, I just wolfed down the whole bag. Though it was the same calories/fat as fresh fruit I tell you I FEEL like I was having something very naughty because it comes in a brightly colored, *satisfyingly* crinkly bag. I don't think I'll be starting on his turkey/vegetable pureee next, but who can ever tell...
