Just a Cracker

That's all I want. I've really been craving the carbs lately. I can't think of much that would be better than sitting down to eat a whole box of crackers, say cheddar-jack cheez-its. Yum. Unfortunately I don't have any room on my eating count for a whole box of crackers, especially of the cheese variety. I did make some fresh corn muffins last night that helped fill the void. Today I'm sticking with my apple and peanut butter dip combo because it makes me feel like I'm eating a lot. The other day I was wishing for a day to just eat whatever I want and not care about it. It sounds like sweet freedom. But in all reality, I don't really want that. Because I'm very happy with how my freedom from food is progressing. Really, what I would like, is for "whatever I want" to become what is healthy and reasonable for me to eat. That's what would really be enjoyable. Think I've got a ways to go yet, but maybe, by grace, I'll get there. Yesterday we went to Pizza Ranch for lunch, something I haven't ventured since the day after I started this journey. And I did ok. I had a few little bits of things I enjoy and walked away satisfied, but not guilty. Like I told Mike, it's a lot less fun to eat at Pizza Ranch when you have to face just how many calories you consume there.
