NSV's
I think we need an NSV thread. If there already is one I didn't see it. I think a lot of people come to the low carb way of eating expecting massive weight loss all at once and since that doesn't always happen its good to focus on the other areas LC eating improves. I'll start.
Last night I ended up at Walmart and Aldi's, while hungry, and actually bought less than normal. 2 months ago grocery shopping while hungry would have meant I spent more on carby foods I didn't really intend to buy because I couldn't think of anything but being hungry. But last night I was able to not only resist all the carby foods, and Aldi's I've realized is about 90% carby foods, but I didn't even want them. Also in the past, I would immediately go home and stuff my face while cooking a quick dinner of pasta and marinara sauce. Then I would crave ice cream all night. Last night I had a small packet of pistachios and then ate my dinner of turkey burger, brussel sprouts, and swiss cheese-no ice cream cravings. NSV.
