Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 29

I was hoping the Human Torch could melt all the snow in Vancouver.

Mutant Diet Phase 2 Day 29

I’d heard that this cold likes to do the relapse trick. So it did. I was off kilter feeling slightly feverish before bed and realized this morning that I wasn’t going to be wanted at the office. So I am attempting to tackle things from home.

However, that did not stop me enjoying my cheat day yesterday. The cheesecake I made was OK and Raga on Broadway for the Indian Food. My wife’s birthday is technically on Tuesday so there are a couple more chances to cheat, but strangely I’m not feeling as compelled to dive back into the sugar and carbs.

This may be the cold talking but when thoughts turn to the bad stuff (e.g. chocolate almonds, M&Ms, toast-and-jam) the associated compulsion just isn’t as strong. For example just by typing this I triggered a craving, but it’s light. It would be interesting to know what the chemistry is that does all this.
