Cravings

As most of you know, I’m on the size 0 diet. I’ve been on this diet for the past couple of months…and have cut almost everything that I enjoy eating out of my diet. It majorly sucks balls and is absolutely pure torture. Ugh. However, the upside is that I have exactly a month of this torture left and then I can return to the land of the living and will be able to eat solid foods again. Wahoo. :-D 

For the past couple of weeks I have been having major cravings for foods that I have banished from my list of size 0 approved items to eat. Earlier this week I actually had to catch myself, pull myself away from temptation and force myself to be content with drinking water. Oooh…it was so tasty. Haha! Anyway, in preparation for my upcoming food binge, I put together a list of the foods that I’ve been craving and what I will be inhaling the second I am allowed to abandon my punishment to fit into a size 0… 

Animal Style Fries – There is something so desirable and appealing about eating something that you know is so bad for you. And there is absolutely no good reason to inhale and waste all my daily calories on Animal Style Fries…but alas, the heart can’t help what the heart wants…or better yet, the stomach can’t help what the stomach wants. 

Carne Asada Super Burrito – Who doesn’t crave a bigass burrito with all the fixings? Pile on extra meat, guacamole, sour cream and pico de gallo and you got yourself something worthy to call a super burrito. Granted, a burrito usually lasts me at least two meals…but hey, it’s possibly the best two meals that I could ever imagine. 

Fountain Cherry Coke – I’m not talking about Cherry Coke from a bottle or can…no, I mean straight from the fountain. There is something about Cherry Coke from a fountain that makes it taste so good. Maybe because I’m not a huge soda drinker and shun all the unnecessary sugar that typical sodas have. However…I have been having the most incurable craving for Cherry Coke from a fountain that I have ever had for a soda. Come the end of my diet and you might find my head under a fountain guzzling Cherry Coke. 

Fried Chicken – I want a huge (and I do mean huge) bucket of fried chicken. And I don’t mean that cheap KFC shit either…oh no, I’m talking about the real hardcore fried chicken that I grew up eating. The Chinese fried chicken you can only get in Chinatown...you know, the good stuff. I want to savor the crispy skin, eat the tender meat off the bone and lick the grease right from the plate. I can’t remember the last time I had a really good piece of fried chicken and at the end of this diet, I’m going to eat fried chicken and not even feel bad about it. 

Sushi Buffet – There has not been a day that goes by that I do not crave sushi and wish I could bury myself in it and eat it until I pass out. I think as a Pisces I crave seafood, water and sushi all the time…it’s in my blood and part of who I am. The fact that I haven’t had sushi in more than a month should be absolutely amazing to you. Prior to this stupid size 0 diet I would need to satisfy my sushi craving about once a week or once every two weeks at the most. And yet…I’m clean and have no trace of sushi in my system. I’m going to need to fix that…pronto. 

So there you have it…my list of top 5 things on my cravings list. I could go on and on about all the other things that I'm craving and not allowed to eat...ice cream, chocolate, bbq chips, nachos, pasta, brownies, cheeseburgers, bbq chicken pizza, sweet potato fries, milk shakes, chocolate chip cookies, lasagna...but no, I'm going to stop there and leave it at that. Haha. If anyone wants to accompany me on my quest to live life, indulge in all my cravings and stuff my face until I can’t eat anymore…please feel free to do so. I have exactly one month left.
