Diets. They are the worst! Even the word "diet" gives me the chills. It's the death of the carefree consumption of yummy snacks that give you sugar highs until you pass out. Not that I've ever done that, I do have some self-control! This is just based on observations of other people (insert awkward thro
at clearing). Moving on!I started dieting, AKA starving, about two weeks ago. Right around the time I posted my last blog. Coincidence? Nyet! I have not had the energy or brain capacity to put together two words, let alone a paragraph.
That's what eating CLIF bars and salads will do to you! Who invented this crap anyway??
It tastes like cardboard dipped in chocolate...artificial chocolate no less. A girl can't get a break! So I nosh on a Clif bar for breakfast and lunch, then I go home and make myself a nummy salad.
Don't get me wrong, I happen to love salads. But eating them everyday, really changes your demeanor. As in, I get meaner. HAHA.
But back to salads...I love the fact that just about anything can be added to it to make it tastier. I load my salads with all kinds of veggies. I used to smother my greens with dressing, but I have found that I prefer a nice vinagerette, lightly drizzled over it so that I can actually taste the food.
I still have my cheats though. I have one starbucks a day instead of 2-3 (crazy I know!), and I've downsized to a tall (that's the smallest size for those of you from another planet). Grande if I'm stressed that day. ;)
I also limit myself to one can of coke per day. I no longer buy the 20 oz. bottle, cans are 12 oz. and I rarel
y finish those. I try to drink water, but I have never really liked the taste, or lack thereof. Besides, there's water in coffee...no comments on that, Peanut Gallery...just let me have that one.So, please disregard the loopiness of my blogs for the next...oh....two-
three months. I will not accept all the blame, Mr. Clif and the salad monster made me do it! Suggestions for salad recipes would be greatly appreciated. :)
Well, I'm happy to see another blog....finally. Just one warning:
ReplyDeleteI read in the American Medical Journal that diets could have serious side effects. For example: If your ears are getting longer and starting to grow fur; you should stop eating salads right away.If you start holding your hands in front of your chest with the backs of your hands toward your chest and the fingers curled, stop eating salads right away. If all you can think about is carrots and sex and your poop looks like small dark brown pellets.....well, forget about it. It's too late. Love Dad
