Earth to Stomach

Since going gluten free in December my relationship with food has obviously changed. A lot. I think before being GF I was living to eat. Since going GF, I am more on the path of eating to live.

I used to be a sugar junkie. I couldn't get enough. Now, I have random days (sporadically) that I crave sweets. These days are luckily few and far between. I eat something(s) sweet and the craving is gone.

The past four days things have changed. A lot. I can't seem to get enough to eat. The good news is that I am wanting more than just sweets. For instance, I haven't been much of a fan of meat my adult life. I would much rather just eat other things. The past few days I cannot get enough chicken salad, eggs, and peanut butter. The chicken salad craving is ridiculous!

One other thing I cannot get enough of is sweet potatoes. I had sweet potato fries two night in a row. Then this afternoon I popped open a bag of sweet potato chips.

I am terrified to go to the gym tomorrow and get on the scale. I know I have gained some weight back. Hoping it is minimal like a pound, but I have a feeling it will be more like two or three. My brain needs to get on the same page as my stomach so this out of control behavior creates a huge problem.
