My name is John and I'm a food addict.

This weekend was a struggle. On Saturday I couldn't shake the pizza demon. My mind wrapped around the idea and kept torturing me with it all day. Luckily, I started looking into writing contests. Most of my day was spent checking them out. I still thought about going for pizza, but I wasn't as inclined to do so. In the end, I went to bed that night without pizza.
Sunday started with all the same temptation. I really wanted something to eat. I spent the day thinking about chicken, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Because without the discount, pizza doesn't seem as good an option. In the end, I didn't do either one. That doesn't mean I didn't break off the diet around 11:pm Sunday night. Just means I didn't give in to the fatty food temptations.
I wound up eating four blueberry pancake wrapped sausages on a stick. About 200 calories each. So I went over by 800 calories. If there had been anything in the apartment worthwhile to binge on, I would've done it. I'm not proud to say that. But luckily there wasn't.
I weighed myself, see the video, and I'm currently at 322 lbs. I've lost 8 pounds in 8 days. I guess I have that to be proud of.
I went walking with my mom today for two laps around the park. With continued exercise, I know I can beat the food demons and lose more weight. Here's hoping the next two days turn out well.
