Damn good eating
18 June 2006 — butchjaxI don't understand how this works. A whole 3 days of good eating, and now bad things make me feel like crap? Grrr…Apparently when you feel good you can actually feel the difference the bad stuff makes. Which means things I loved before are now not so pleasant.
For instance, sugar. Sugar feeds yeast in your stomach, thus fermenting. This causes gas and heartburn. It also leaves you with a bit of a sour feeling stomach. This I know from experience, thus tainting my strawberries, angel food cake, and cool whip. Grrr…no more cool whip? or angel food cake? What kind of messed up world do I live in where I can't enjoy this anymore?
So I think we just have to accept it…our lives are forever changed. Our sugar intake will go down drastically. We need to be smarter with our desserts…just fresh fruit? However, through this we'll naturally lose weight, which is wonderful. But…sugar! I know I'll still have it occasionally, because chocolate cravings just don't go away. But I pay for it every time. :-P *sigh* I know this has a good payoff, but man…
By the way, tuna and avocado are excellent together! :-)
