Day 14: Food Porn

Yesterday I worked at a station that was pretty slow, we watched TV for most of the day and only ran two calls. The person I was working with wanted to watch travel channel. I love travel channel and since we do not have cable at our house I thought this was a great idea. We started with a show about cruise ships which was interesting and was a great way to pass the time. However then came the next show,  a show dedicated to pizza. PIZZA, freaking PIZZA (if you were unsure up until this point, pizza is my favorite and a weakness) we watched an hour of where pizza started, how its made, and the best places around the nation to get pizza. At this point I am starting to freak my partner out, I am drooling and slowly inching closer and closer to the TV. If I had started licking the TV I'm pretty sure he would have called a manager. Luckily we got a call and had to leave the station. However now I am faced with a new problem... I have my wallet on me, I am out and about, and NYPD pizza is on our way back to the station from the hospital...I will save you the details of the embarrassing fight I had with myself but I managed to steer away. We got back to the station where I heated up my Lean Cuisine and told myself that it was the most filling, delicious meal I had ever had and that Pizza does not even come close to Lemon chicken and rice pilaf (for only 300 calories).
This reminded me of something my trainer Maya once told me.....
"Nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels"
So another small victory in the battle against my inner fat kid.

I do catch myself looking at recipes on Pinterest, or watching commercials on TV and thinking about cheating. I hope that instead of cheating I am actually building up a tolerance to the food I see. That one day It won't affect me as much.
