Food commercials while fasting


(Newimprovedme ) #1

It never fails whenever I fast there are so many food commercials on TV. I think I just don’t notice them while I’m not fasting. I started getting cravings for whatever I see…keto food of course. I was especially craving some ribs from friday’s… they have a special that looks so good covered in bacon…until I saw that it has 48 g of carbs!!! That’s for a full rack, I rationalized, I would never be able to eat the whole thing in one sitting…maybe a quarter of it. But all that sugar. I can tell that I’m making progress because I didn’t just run out to get it while I was hungry. I waited, did some research and moved on.

Proud of your choices! I too am easily fixated on visuals exploiting food… I have to remind myself that artists and sales-minded folk often squeeze every drop of temptation out of an idea essentially morphing what was regular food into a Siren’s song. It’s not real :slight_smile:
