Hello:
When I started this weight loss journey I simply looked for what I was supposed to eat. I didn't pay any attention to what I wanted. And, that worked.
However, now I "listen" and track what I want and I look for healthy substitutes.
Here is what my body says in a week:
After every meal I want something sweet
I make a keto bread like pound cake and I cover a slice with a stevia sweet chia jam. Sometimes I include almond butter or cream cheese and some whipped cream. Craving is satisfied. Ialso have banana, chia, coconut/almond milk stevia pudding
Sometimes I want something cold and veggie like
Simple: Crisp salad with tomatoes, leaf lettuce, endive, cukes and inions and Italian dressing.
Sometimes I need crunchy
I grab some sunflower seeds, walnuts, or other nuts
Sometimes I need rich with intensity - at least that is the best way I can describe
I grab sardines, anchovies, peanut butter
Anyway, I have begun paying more attention to my interests/needs/cravings instead of creating meals from a list of "good foods". It seems like this keeps hunger away and lowers my level of anxiety about food. I don't feel I am "missing" much.
Still working on that "bready feel" like when eating fried eggs or just having a sandwich and feeling that texture of bread being cut by your teeth. hsard to replicate but I will find something close.
Have Great Weekend
