This blog was started almost a year ago, and for the first time, I'm feeling motivated to post. The reasoning for this sudden change is beyond me... could it be that I am wasting hours of my time at this awful job? Could it be that the thoughts floating through my mind somehow trigger the hunger in me?
Speaking of hunger... This blog is an attempt for my best friend and I to document all of the foods and beverages we indulge in with the hopes of cutting back. Maybe that's why it has taken so long to begin... cutting back sounds like a terrible idea! How could that be a positive thing when some days a bag of Peanut M&M's is the only thing keeping me sane? I'm just going to come right out and say this: diets are bullshit. Necessary bullshit.
After eating my Peanut M&M's and talking to the best friend, I was scrolling through old messages. Facebook is so kind to remember all past conversations... I stumbled across the log in information for this blog and thought, "Why the hell not. Let's get cracking."
So, to keep things on track here, I'll document my food from today:
Breakfast - Bowl of Cascadian Farms Chocolate O's with 2% Milk
Lunch - Local/Organic Leafy Green Salad with Yellow and Orange Peppers, Celery, Broccoli, and Green Onions with Feta and an Herb Vinaigrette
Snack - Stonyfield Blueberry Yogurt
Stress Indulgence - Pack of Peanut M&M's from the Vending Machine
Nervous/Stress Snack - Orange and a Handful of Gardetto's
Intended Food for the Evening - Homemade Potato Soup (With Carrots, Celery, Onions, Potatoes, Bacon, Cheese, Green Onions... delicious)
Two stress "meals"... that doesn't look good. I know without a doubt in my mind that the majority of my snacking comes from a pit of stress deep within me. Stress about the past, stress about the present, and stress and confusion about the future.
