Yesterday I did my weekly grocery shopping and decided to get some Heavy Whipping Cream (HWC) and treat myself to an old favorite - coffee with plenty of HWC.
It was.........horrible. I was so looking forward to what once was my most favorite thing to eat or drink. It made my stomach hurt - bad. So, now the nostalgia is gone, the desire is gone, any leftover feelings of deprivation are GONE!
I was honestly taken by surprise by this whole thing. While making this cup of coffee, I knew it could send me back to where I used to be - drinking many, many cups of this each day. Instead - I like my plain black coffee better than I thought I did. I have one or two cups in the morning and once in a while a cup in the afternoon. Down from what was an average of 5 cups a day with the HWC.
My sister-in-law asked me how I made this switch. I told her I just decided to make the change. It was about doing what I felt I needed to do - not what I wanted to do at the time. I am still surprised I was able to stick with it. Yay, Me!
Just one of those things that took me by surprise! That's all I have for now!
