Five Foods

Day 92,

I tool around some of the other weight loss blogs from time to time. Recently, I came across an interesting post from a blogger that listed 5 foods she used to crave, 5 foods she currently craves and 5 foods she'll always hate. I like the concept. I am finding that as my body gets healthier, it craves different foods than it did in the past. So, I thought it might be fun to give this little concept a go.

Five Foods I Used to Crave
Bacon - I still love bacon. But, I don't have to have it in my house. If I smell it though... It's ON!

Butter - There was a time when I could not have a baked potato without butter. I would make popcorn at home just so I could put some butter on it. Hell... I would put butter on pop tarts. I still love butter.

Pringles - I couldn't even keep them in the house because I would eat the whole can in one sitting. They mean almost nothing to me now.

Fried Chicken - I love Fried Chicken. But, it no longer loves me. It makes me sick every time I eat it.

Steak - I have and will always love steak. It's a well known fact that Margaret doesn't share meat!

Five Foods I Currently Crave
Greek Yogurt - I tried to eat some regular yogurt the other day and it was too sweet. Imagine that. Chobani Greek Yogurt is my favorite. Yum! Eat along side a handful of raw walnuts and you've got a perfectly balanced mid-meal.

Apples - Galas and Honey Crisp are my favorites. They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I think there's probably some truth to this as I made it through the cold and flu season without getting either. (Watch... I'll get sick just for typing that)

Asparagus - My favorite vegetable. I love steamed asparagus. It's delicious.

Natural Peanut Butter - I can't eat regular peanut butter anymore. The texture bothers me. I love to pair 1 Tbls with an apple. It's a perfectly balanced snack.

Edamame - I don't get to eat this very often. But, I absolutely love it. Sprinkle a little sea salt on top of the pods and go for it. They are a great source of vegetable protein.

Five Foods I Will NEVER Crave
Onions - Vile WEEDS! I can handle them cooked all the way through in things like soup. Raw? NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!

Boiled and /or Fried Eggs - YUCK!

Radishes - ICK!

Raw Celery - NOPE!

Cucumber - I hate these almost as much as I hate Onions!

What foods do you crave?

Cheers!
Margaret
