Things I look forward to eating and drinking again with less restriction (in no particular order):
Pho/Ramen/Noodles
Fruits
Donuts/Cupcakes/Cookies/Cake
Cereal
Milk
Ice Cream
Juice
Breads/Croissants
Pancakes/Waffles/French Toast
Pizza
If you know me, I love to eat fresh fruits and it’s been so tough to just eat small pieces of fruit. I just want to eat a big fruit salad!
I love baking and it’s so hard to restrict myself to half a cookie or half a cupcake plus I’ve been really craving a donut especially after watching a show about Voodoo Doughnut in Portland, Oregon where they have a huge donuts and a delicious looking apple fritter.
Surprisingly I’m not craving candy or chocolates…
But these are just a few of the things I’ve been missing out on the last few months. I’m getting tired of carbohydrate counting but I have learned a lot about eating better so after I get it out of my system and eat my fill, I may go back to the low carbohydrate diet. It’s probably overall better for our health and will help to prevent me from developing type 2 diabetes later on.
