When I had my 'break' for a few days when in the UK I found that I was utterly overwhelmed by the choice of food, and things that I usually liked held little appeal for me. I had intended on making sensible choices but I did have a few naughty things. But do you know what? The meal I enjoyed the most was definitely my chicken salad!
Do you think that maybe it is a psychological thing? Where you have denied yourself things for slo long that they simply no longer appeal?
