Addict

Hello, my name is Duffy and I'm a cheese addict. It has been 9 days since my last bite of cheese.

Unfortunately... I seem to have replaced the cheese addiction with this:

(Honey Roasted Cashews-- Salt, Sugar & Fat: the whole addiction triad!)

 

 

 

I've also been drinking a fair amount of this:

BUT, I have not had ANY of this:

(not actually a temptation for me)

Nor this:

(HUGE temptation, in terms of fast food and cheese sandwiches)

Nor this:

(HUGE temptation at every convenience store, grocery store and checkout counter!)

I have been 90-95% WFPB for over 1 week now.  I give myself a 90% when I have honey-roasted cashews and coke; a 95% when its just coke.

This week my goal is to have at least 2 days of 100% WFPB.  The good news is that I've dropped 8.6 pounds already.  The bad news is that I can easily eat a 1,350 calorie bag of honey-roasted cashews in a single sitting.

The good news however, is that if I swap those cashews out for foods lower on the calorie-density scale, I can eat a lot more volume and feel satisfied for less calories.

Here's to another WFPB week; may it be in every way even better than the last!
