I fell victim to a food weakness I had forgotten about; Licorice/Nibs. Nibs haven’t crossed my lips in so long; I had forgotten what a forbidden fruit these were. In the lunch room at my work was some candy bowls. In these candy bowls were fun size nib packets. I was doing well for calories today and figured I would be ok just having one. Wrong. This ignited my sweet tooth into a bonfire. More nibs, I wanted. My sweet tooth was screaming at me “Go get more, it’s only 45 calories. Get more.” It seemed I almost went into a panic for more, for a moment.
The change in my behaviour though showed. I stopped myself because I knew if I had one more that would lead to one more and one more etc. To help calm my urge I ended up having a caramel rice cake which is a little more substance behind the 50 calories. I have to watch though, my sweet tooth tried to get me to add sugar to my afternoon coffee. That is a habit I haven’t really been doing for a long time now, yet it seemed so natural to grab a sugar packet to add. I stopped myself however before picking up the packet.
