Am I the only person who as soon as I’m done eating want more?
Does that sound dorky? Well it sure does to me and I just don’t understand why that is. So just this week I’ve been doing some testing to see if I could figure out if there are certain foods that trigger these behaviors.
Let’s see I started off this week week with the “chunky monkey” feeling. You know that feeling when you know that you’ve gained a few pounds and you most certainly do not need to jump on the scale to see if it went up right? Instead what I do is go into action, I cut out eating a lot of solid food and stick with mostly liquids.
No I’m not talking about fasting, even though I believe fasting is a good way to cleanse toxins from your body. I’m talking about liquid protein beverage drinks.
When I feel chunky monkey I will go on my liquid protein drinks; shakes and fruit flavored high protein drink mix. I usually do this for 2-3 days and can drop my “chunky” and feel pretty fast. The first day is typically the hardest to endure but by day 3 I’m in the groove and the food cravings and sugar cravings are subsided.
