I want a cookie

I want a  cookie.  I don’t know where this craving is coming from, but when I came home from rehearsal last night I was tired and hungry and wanted a cookie.  I didn’t have one.  I don’t think we even have any cookies in the house, even.  It’s been 3 weeks since I gave up sugar, and the cravings have really gone away.  Until this cookie thing.  I don’t want to eat a cookie.  I want to keep on keeping off sugar.  I’m actually quite proud of myself and I’ve even lost almost 5 pounds.  I don’t want to eat a cookie.  I don’t want to WANT to eat a cookie.  I know I can make myself not EAT a cookie, but How do I make myself not WANT a cookie?

Deep breathing, I guess.  I’ve made pizza for the kids for lunch, so I’ll go eat that (healthy alternative–not so much) and hope it kills my cookie craving.  If that doesn’t work, I’ll sip my diet coke, then maybe have some popcorn.  If I’m still having a craving I could always break out asugar free pudding snack.  Wish me luck.
