Out of my chest: cravings, Keto and willpower.

First month of Keto: May 9 – June 12. “SW198 CW181” About a year and a half ago, I finally stopped smoking cigarettes. It could never happen the first 2 days. One day I had enough and suffered the withdrawals and here I am today, nicotine free. I had no one to share this with, no one to cheer me on or pat me on the back, but I’m still proud. I did it by myself and alone. What nobody tells you is that you will never stop wanting to smoke. I will always want a cigarette, I no longer need it physically. If it wasn’t unhealthy, I’d be smoking them right now. They are everything you could want. Free strokes of happiness and relaxation whenever you want. I never liked myself enough to really care enough to suffer from quitting. When you don’t mind bad things, the benefits of smoking after dinner can’t be beat. It may seem unimpressive, but quitting smoking was one of the most difficult things I’ve ever done on my own. I have tried dieting in the past but it never worked because I lacked the Willpower. After a day dying / meditating on myself, I got to a point where something needed to change. Being overweight sucks. It may be an unpopular opinion, but I really think that being attractive makes life a lot easier. Attractive people have it easier socially, in their careers / job interviews, dating, and self-esteem. Being out of shape is the invisible shackle that always makes it so much harder on everything. The little downsides here and there add up. Being fit and attractive is not just about being attractive in a romantic way, but also in the way you attract. The people’s attention, their love, their considerations. It greases the wheels in many subtle ways that are often overlooked. I finally decided that I was going to lose weight and commit. After all, if you could quit smoking, then you could resist the temptations of food. I am different from what I was. I have something new. I have stronger willpower. It is not perfect but it is enough. I’ve been on keto for a month and lost almost 20 pounds. I can’t see any difference in the mirror, but I have faith. It has been a struggle. Just as I will always want a cigarette and think fondly, I will also want to order a pizza, melt the grilled cheese with garlic and butter, pick up a cheap French muffin while it is still hot from the bakery, and dip it in oil and vinegar or have a large bowl of cereal in the middle of the night. But now I am different. I am stronger and I choose to be fit in the future on the carbohydrate content I have at the moment.
