Day 55 - Cravings and impatience

I know that I'm not actually hungry right now; I just ate. It was a good, well portioned, filling meal. But that doesn't stop me from wanting to eat. I like food, and I like eating, that's how I got to the problem I'm facing down today. Of course it's not like I'm craving fruit, veggies, or yogurt either, I am having an absurd craving for a Hostess cupcake. I suppose the only good thing is that since I am flat broke I have no way to acquire said cupcake. I'll have a bit of dark chocolate - it's ok in small amounts-  that should take care of that craving.

On another note I am extremely impatient. Don't get me wrong, I've lost 26 lbs so far, that is just under 1/5 of my goal, and that is exciting. But I want to be further along. I have started to feel a little better about myself already, but based on passed experience it will be awhile before I start to feel fantastic. That probably wont hit until somewhere in stage 2.  I guess I will just have to use that as fuel for the fire. I know that I will get there; it will feel great; it will feel like it really didn't take that long in the grand scheme of things and I should have done it ages ago. But until then it feels agonizingly slow.
