I find myself looking at foods in a whole new way lately. Even commercials about restaurants. A Red Robin commercial just came on and I got disgusted by half the food they were showing, or I was like, oh no I can't eat french fries lol. WEIRD!!! It's making me realize they're just selling you their shit. A lot of people don't agree with the Paleo lifestyle. So far I really like it. It makes sense to me. I've done low carb....hell to the no. I've done low fat...gross, plus a lot more sugar. I'm happy with what I'm "allowed" to eat, but if I want something that's not really Paleo, you bet your ass I'm going to eat it. I'm trying not to do it so much though. I have a feeling the more I eat certain foods, the less I will even WANT to eat the others I use to crave. I rarely want soda anymore, and cookies are like...eh. I would rather make a chocolatey cookie or something sweet myself so I actually KNOW what's in it. All the other things I did were because I wanted to lose weight. For the first time in my life, my main concern is my overall health. I've been feeling sick lately and I know it's from the foods I have been eating. Since I started this, my stomachaches and nauseousness have gone away and I don't fear eating lol. I LOOK at labels more, I try to understand what is good and bad.
I'm still having trouble with portions and recipes though. It's just me so making these things for 1 can be difficult. Most of the recipes I have to adjust, and if I can't well then I have lunch for several days lol. I'm eating things I never thought I'd eat. My mom would be so proud lol. Who knew avocados were so amazing, and that the right spices can make something perfect! I still don't like tomatoes though. Ew. And yes this is a blog mostly about food and I have like 3 readers, so I don't care lol. But here's a cute doggie just to break up the food talk.
She just got a haircut and is pissed at me.
Coconut Oil is amazing btw! I put it in my coffee right now, but my sister uses it for cleaning her face as well! So many things you can do with it!! I'll keep you posted the more I use it. It's pricey, but it lasts for a long time. I with it helped with memory and attention spans b/c I'm already bored. K night.
