For the Love of Fruit.

Fun day today.  Foot massage and reflexology.  Uber relaxing!  The only pressure point that hurt (I looked it up after the massage) was a point that correlated to the brain.  Interesting.  Still healing the brain maybe?  I believe in reflexology but maybe not completely or exactly.  Coincidence?  Maybe, maybe not.  Just don't know, but it's worth a pause.  And you can't argue with the relaxation response.

Had Korean soup dish for lunch.  DELICIOUS!

Tabata was really good.  Hard but my legs feel less tired.  Good sign.

My eating tonight was a little off point.  I've been really craving good watermelon for about a week.  It's been a little anemic looking so I've passed on it all week. Today it was perfect, red, juicy ... amazing.  But only the cut mellon in the big container (the small containers looked mediocre at best). Winner!  Ouch.  Ate it all.  Then I ate the 2 white flesh nectarines that were perfectly ripe (hard to find the white ones).  Double ouch. (I did share with the dog ... if that helps!)

Fruit overload.  Probably going to be fighting the sugar cravings tomorrow.  Not thrilled I ate so much fruit (and no veggies at dinner) but it was delicious and the season is coming to an end.  Some regret, but still Whole30 compliant (though not recommended).

If that's the most "bad" I do ... not too shabby.  Trick is to keep it at just too much fruit.  My brain IMMEDIATELY tried to talk me into "giving in" ... "enjoying a treat night" ... "you deserve this."  Oh that crazy, sneaky brain.  I'm happy to say it didn't win.  Made my collagen tea and went up to bed.

It's never worth it (throwing in the towel that is).

I also get extra cravings when I go out with this particular friend. She's my drinking buddy.  I always "want" after I see her.  Nothing to do with her ... I'm just conditioned lol.

That's the good word tonight.
