NO MORE Pop Tarts, and an Easy Lentil Salad
I was perfectly sugar free for nearly a month and then…. Pop Tarts happened. Gluten free pop tarts, or toaster pastries, whatever you want to call them. I hadn’t had one in 13 years so you can understand my excitement when I saw them sitting on the shelf in my local Albertsons. I brought them home and devoured them only to find that they weren’t even that good, kind of gross actually. But once my brain got the effects of that sugar I was a hopeless case and I kept eating them. I lost all control and I need to get myself together again. My lunches need to look like this photo above… I’m hoping this will motivate me to get back on track. 
EASY Lentil Salad
A couple hand fulls of Baby Romain lettuce
About a half cup cooked lentils
1/2 avocado
Olive Oil, lemon juice, and salt – or your favorite dressing.
Toss ingredients and enjoy!

Oh I know this feeling… finding something yummy and just eating it… and more of it… You will get back there… a good trip to the grocery store for some good stuff always helps!

So funny because a few weeks ago, I was starving during class. I went out to the vending machine and saw that they had pop tarts. I was thinking I hadn’t had one since I was probably 12, so I bought a pack. I took one bite and thought it was gross….but then devoured the entire thing and wanted more the next day! What the heck?!

I’m not buying any more – ever!
