Lately I have fallen prey to the same fantasies that DH has been having. Mine aren't as passionate as Zach's. My daydreams about cupcakes and chips are nothing compared to his love-making dreams with Chinese food.
For my own benefit, let me indulge in telling you all what I would eat if I could eat anything I wanted instead of nothing. :)
*COFFEE with creamer. Ah, to have a piping-hot, life-renewing cup of coffee every morning. I think I miss this the most. It's a lifesaver. I wake up to a poopy daughter and a hard-to-please son and a big cup of coffee always made it better. :)
*Regular ol' chocolate, with milk.
*The chips and salsa from Chili's. I think I miss this second most. It's a double whammy on the no-no list right now because of the corn and the tomato.
*Cake-Red Velvet being my favorite, but any cake would be yummy. Lemon cake. Chocolate cake with raspberry filling.
*KFC Fried Chicken & Biscuits. I love fried chicken. I love how greasy it is and how crunchy the outside is. When I lost so much weight after my DD was born, I didn't even skimp, I just got the EXTRA crispy kind. So luxurious.
*Cereal. I love having cereal for dessert or in the middle of the afternoon. Most cereal isn't gluten-free...which sucks. A lot.
*Dairy Queen Blizzards. YUM. I checked the ingredients of DQ Blizzard's online, which I probably shouldn't have done. It has corn syrup, milk (duh), and wheat. I do love them so.
*Delivery Pizza. I don't think I need to say more here...
By far what I'm missing the most is the convenience of everything I can't eat. It's easy, in some ways, to take food with me everywhere, but it's embarrassing. Going to a catered party (I've come up against several lately) is awkward too. You don't know what food will be there so you have to assume there won't be anything for you to eat. I'm supposed to go to a kid's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese's soon; I think it's a safe bet that their pizza is not gluten-free!
Is there something you miss eating or try not to eat, but love? I want to know what it is...
I have to say when I went on my very restrictive diet, lattes were the absolute worst. I was so bitter and angry because I just wanted a carmel machiatto (sp?). I'm sure this will all be worth it, and I will say an extra prayer that coffee is NOT the culprit for you.
ReplyDeleteIt's you! It's nice to see your smiling face in blog land! I love lattes. I do, I do. :) So creamy and warm and delicious. I think it's funny that without caffeine we're angry harpies, LOL.
