I had this weird craving for peanut butter last night. I didn't run out and get some but I thought that the craving was really weird. I never even had peanut butter around my house before the project. Sometimes I would get almond butter for an almond butter sauce (with the coconut milk the almond butter seems to make it seem richer), and then sometimes I would get cashews because I'm a sucker for cashews. But peanut butter was never a big staple in my kitchen. I could only assume that it's some childhood memory or something. PB & J was a staple growing up. PB, Banana, and honey was my favorite. And the mega tasty PB and bacon which was a random treat. But honestly thinking about that sandwich makes me want to throw up right now. I don't crave it today, which is really weird to me that I was craving it last night and then didn't have any and now I don't crave it at all. I was satisfied with my normal breakfast and am looking forward to lunch. Cravings are weird.
I can't believe we are so close to the end. Time just kinda slipped by. The workouts are harder so it's not like I can just coast through the next couple weeks, but knowing the end is near makes it easier to just do the workouts and eat the right way. I guess it's just the feeling it would be pointless to give up now, it would a waste of the time we already put in.
I want to pull off some badass jumprope trick. I'm getting really loose and comfortable jumping around but in terms of the tricks I haven't pull off anything. I try and fail. I guess I just have got to try try again.
I was walking down the street the other day and got really angry at my belt. My pants were about to drop to the ground, and I was on the move so I got a little frustrated. But then I was like, "this is what it's all about right? Feel proud instead of angry, and buy a new belt." Simple enough.
Awesome post man. As the fat percentage gets nice and low the brain will send out the most random cravings as it tries to convince you to fatten up again (this is especially true as winter comes on). I've had all kinds of weird ones, stuff I haven't eaten in more than 10 years. Cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat is bad ass. I love peanut butter but haven't thought about it the last month until I read this. Bacon on the on the other hand...
ReplyDeleteNew belt time! That's fantastic. But the most important thing in this post: jump. rope. trick. You gotta promise to videotape yourself.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Last night I was organizing my kitchen cupboards and opened the jar of peanut butter I haven't touched in a month. I took a deep peanut buttery inhale and that did the trick, almost like I ate it. The mind is freaky!
ReplyDeleteYes, please videotape the jump rope trick!
