Maybe I was just
worn out by my into everything, I’m not going to take a nap this afternoon 1
year-old, or maybe it was the realization that my husband would not be home to
take over with aforementioned 1year-old for at least an hour. But I impulsively
bought some sugar free cookies when I was at the grocery store this afternoon.
Besides, how could I go wrong with “Tastes so good you won’t know it’s sugar
free” plastered all over the packaging? Believe me I knew. They didn’t taste
awful, but there was a strange aftertaste. After eating one, I thought, maybe
if I have a couple more, I will get used to the aftertaste. Well that strategy
only made me feel like I was gonna vomit. Needless to say, there will be no
more sugar free cookie purchases in my immediate future.
The whole
incident got me thinking about sugar craving. Today for the first time,
afternoon wasn’t difficult (until that ill-fated trip to the store). I did have
sugar cravings, but they seemed more psychological than physical. I’ve never
experienced that before (or at least I’ve never recognized it). It seems like
any psychological cravings I’ve had were always accompanied by physical ones. This
time, it felt like my mind and only my mind was telling me that I needed to eat
sugar. So maybe things will get easier soon.
