Free Write: So Much Food



     I went into work the other day to find a feast in front of me. Apparently, it was someone’s birthday at work and there was a little pot luck that my work put together. There were chips, dip, cupcakes, chicken, beagles, fruit plates, carrots, broccoli, cake, egg, donuts, and so many other foods that I do not remember right now. Recently, I have been trying to be somewhat aware and portion control on what I eat because I have noticed the desk job getting to me a little bit.  However, it is so difficult to eat healthy and watch your portion size when there is so much good food surrounding you. Also, this isn’t the only time that this has happened. Almost every Friday Allstate ends up getting someone to cater some type of food for us for lunch. It is insane how many times I have to resist from eating such great food. I think to myself, “How am I ever going to reach my goal of losing this weight.” However, it is really just self discipline and I am just new to this experience of having there be unlimited amounts of food around me.

     With that being said, I went to Costco that day and went to town on purchasing hard boiled eggs, brown rice, and chicken. Hopefully all this food lasts me longer than anticipated and fills me up. Wish me good luck on my new quest to attempting to lose this weight that I just gained and I will be sure to write another free write in regards to this to keep you guys posted about my status.
