Lessons from Cheating and Eating: Carbs Don’t Satisfy

Posted on November 14, 2016June 29, 2019 by

French toast

My cheat days are primarily about staying healthy and enjoying the good stuff at the same time. But I'm also learning lots of neat stuff about my body.

Yesterday, I was eating A LOT. A giant plate of ricotta-stuffed french toast with a half dozen slices of bacon. A pork bahn mi sandwich and an avocado shake. A sleeve of small chocolate chip cookies. Japanese fried chicken. Nachos. All the things.

And yet, despite all of that, I was hungry for a lot of the day. I think it had to do with my body not getting enough protein and vegetables, making me feel deprived and under-nourished. The cookies weren't filling the roasted chicken and broccoli shaped hole in my stomach.

That's what makes my diet so easy. I don't have to over-think it. I just have to listen to what my body wants and how what I eat effects me.
