Sweet, dessert cravings

Image
I've been having cravings for sweet things and desserty, carby stuff lately. I'm not sure if it's because I've added so much more carbs to my diet or if it's because of my impending TOM date.. I don't usually get cravings for sweet nothings. haha But I do know somehow that the less carbs I eat, the less I eventually crave it. so strange right. Although I have added more carbs to my diet, I can definitely say that at least they are 'healthier, cleaner' versions: brown rice, carby fruits, wheat bread. But for iifym that doesn't really seem to matter. A carb is a carb is a carb is a carb Current obsession is frozen banana with PB + nutella and chocolate chips. mmmm This is great substitute for ice cream but I dunno, bananas are pretty high carb so maybe I shall interchange o:)

I've been cleansing myself from fast food and carbs (well, actually I don't remember the last time I got fast food, but that's a good thing!). I don't think I see the effects very well this week because I am bloated from that horrid girly time of the month thing. And last week, I had intense cravings for donuts, juicy burgers, crunchy salacious chips, and sodium-enriched pizzas... But I didn't indulge in any. Encountering this picture on tumblr reminded me of how I basically was towards all the food porn thrown throughout the internet.
