Hey there, lurker here. Sorry in advance for the formatting I’m mobile. I know this might be a common thing among you guys but I feel like I had to share it. For starters, I’m 20F and I currently weigh 161.2 lbs. Last summer during the pandemic I managed to get to my lowest weight of 141 lbs, but as of August 2021 I ballooned to my highest weight of 172.2 lbs. I’ve been slowly losing ever since, with some weight spikes here and there. I have to start by saying this: I’m an absolute nut for hot cheetos. I know they’re not good for you, but I could consume bags upon bags of them all day if I could. They could be hot cheetos, hot fries, or hot funions and I will chow down instantly. Basically anything spicy I’ll eat.
So I just finished eating this CVS dinner called Bibigo, and I wasn’t fully satiated. I wanted to eat my hot cheetos, but I’m self aware that I’ll go WAY over my calorie limit for the day. I called my boyfriend (who lost over 40 lbs since August. I’m so jealous) and he told me to not eat them. However, being the hot cheeto addict I am, I didn’t listen and grabbed the bag anyway. I kept thinking about the weight I reached this morning, 161.2 lbs, and I told myself, “Slow your roll. Don’t you want to get even lower tomorrow?” So I whipped out my scale and weighed 28 grams of the chips and was shocked to see how little it actually was.
Seeing just 1 serving of chips out of the bag was so jarring to me. I literally said out loud, “That’s it?!” Normally I just eat the entire bag in one sitting and pay how many I eat no mind, but to me 170 cals of my favorite snack looked like just 10 chips to me. I wanted to pour another serving so bad, but I reluctantly stopped myself and just ate what I had. I’m not satisfied in the slightest, but in the end I’m proud of myself for not giving in to my cravings and damaging my progress. To be honest, as I write this, I don’t even want anymore for now. I’m sure everyone and their mother weighs all of their snacks, but this was such a wake-up call for me and something I should’ve done sooner. I think I might weigh my hot cheetos more often lol. Thanks for reading!
