Anyone who knows me well, knows that I just do not function well without food. Yes, I am one of those people that gets downright mean and evil when it is time to eat and the food is missing. Now, I know that I am not truly starving but I can’t help it. At east that’s the story I’m sticking with since my father and niece seem to share this gene.
Being overweight really hit home even more so when a friend sent some college pics of when I was skinny. Ugh…..I wanted to wire my mouth shut. I had already begun changing my eating habits but these pictures definitely made a lasting impression. However, I AM HUNGRY. Not a mild, oh-I-should-eat-something hunger but a gnaw-your-fingers hunger. (Heavy sigh).
I want to be able to eat a plate of pork-chops, smothered in gravy or fried chicken with all the skin nice and crispy and still not gain an ounce. I hate eating healthy. Some of the food is still good but never as good as the food that isn’t. (Heavy Sigh). I had planned on getting back to the gym that I give monthly donations but I broke my ankle and can’t even drive.
I have been trying those Healthy Choice Fresh Mixers. Pahleeezeee….they’re ok but let’s be honest. They would fill up my 2.5 year old niece but not me. So, I’m eating an apple, drinking my water and savorying every bite of those Nabisco 100 Calorie Pack of Oreo Cookies. You know the ones that are slightly larger than a thumb and a little bit thicker than a piece of paper!!!
I realize that some people in the world are starving, even here in the United States. I just needed to whine a bit and get it out of my system.
Well, let me finish lunch with some applesauce.
