Day 42 – OMG Food Commercials!!!

So today my blog is just a rant. I am doing so well and am feeling good and keeping to my plan. That is until I watch TV. Every 3rd commercial is about food. Though I mostly PVR shows I still have to fast forward through the commercials and watching the big NBA basketball player eat his SUPER CHEESY PIZZA backwards because it is a stuffed crust is just cruel punishment.

I’m not so strict on my wellness plan that I can’t enjoy a good piece of pizza every now and then I just choose not to have the ULTIMATE pizza. The choice isn’t easy and at times it would be so good to eat 4 slices of it like I used to but I’m changing and now I stop at 2 without the stuffed crust.

I would hope that this would be the only commercial about food but no… there is Subway and though I respect Jared I just can’t eat my sandwich without some cheese and sauce so watching those commercials are happy and cheerful but it’s like the muffin from day 2 of my journey…. suspiciously healthy.

And lastly what’s with the McDonald’s commercial with the blind folded guy? Let’s hover some food under the guy’s nose and see if he can tell what he is about to eat… this is just plain weird and I’m not sure what their message is. “Our food is so smelly that you don’t have to see it to know it’s ours….” Sure.

There are temptations everywhere and at night enjoying my favorite show seems to be the best time to captivate me into watching these horrible commercials. It’s one of those times where I am thankful I live on an acreage and can’t easily get any of it. Willpower is a hard thing to keep going but as I said yesterday I am just going to keep on keepin on…. willpower well that’s for another day.
