Those Miserable Cravings....

Eating clean and abstaining from all junk food takes some strong will power. The cravings can be so strong sometimes.

It's almost like it hurts emotionally when I say no to all the starchy, greasy, sugary, crunchy, fatty foods. But the good thing is, that when I do say no, I get a little stronger and almost able to view the craving from a distance.

I've gained a few insights into these "cravings". They're usually not in my favor or supportive of my dreams or goals for fitness.

It's like I'm having WAR with my body. It will NOT gain mastery over me. I will rule over it instead.

So here is what I'm eating these days to lean out:

Broccoli, spinach, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, tofu, greenbeans, chicken, tuna, egg whites, oatmeal, coffee and splenda.

Basically I'm sticking to all green veggies and lean meats for the next 8 weeks to lean out.

So I'm trading my tasty, delicious junk fatty foods for bland, boring power foods. One will give me a flabby, fat, soft and unattractive body. The other will give me that hard, muscular, curvy, sexy body that says WOW.

Hmmmm, the trade off is worth it in the end.
