Title: And I was doing so well...
Post by: Jessie on August 09, 2005, 07:34:20 AM
I've been trying to eat better.  Well, mostly.

Yesterday, I had cereal and a glass of milk for breakfast, and homemade beefaroni for lunch.  Dinner was effin' amazing - rosemary pork with roasted tomatoes, onions, garlic, and peppers with pasta and cheese.

This morning I had cereal and a glass of milk again.  This is a lot better than my usual chocolate donut mini's and a diet coke.

Then I got to work.

Someone brought donuts.  I had to eat one.  It'd be rude not to, right?

They've got the 2 for $2.22 breakfast sandwiches there.  Too bad I don't eat.

Better to eat one and walk away than deny yourself totally. Binges come of that frustration.
I have (pretty much) one soda a day, that way I don't feel like going out tomorrow and drinking 3 liters by myself. Oops, sorry OB, litres.

The doughnut is not necessarily "healthy" - but you had a good breakfast, which kick started your metabolism so, added to the not wanting to be rude thing, I think the doughnut's cancelled out.

Do fruit loops count?  That's what I had today.  Yesterday I had corn chex, which I'm sure was good, but the fruit loops I'm not so sure about.

When I moved my mom and dad both sent me all the cereal out of their cabinets or something so I seriously have like 6 different kinds of cereal right now.  I think I'll have frosted miniwheats tomorrow.

Mine are the walmart brand.  I prefer the big shredded wheat myself, non-frosted.  I add sugar, though.

As a kid, we would get the big shredded wheats and put a little honey on top and toast them in the toaster oven before putting the milk on. Tasty.

Froot Loops should be their own food group.  So should Fruity Pebbles.

One time when I was a kid, I was on vacation with my mom and grandfather. We had spent the night at some cousin's house. For breakfast, I had Grape Nuts.

It was so horrible, I took it outside and poured it out in their flowerbed. I wonder if they ever noticed.

I haven't eaten Grape Nuts since.

ACtually a wind blown form of lichen.  Lichens are fascinating organisms, not really a single species themselves but a symbiotic relationship bettweena  fungus and a photosynthesizing cyanbacteria, which is responsible for the color often observed.
