The girl who ate everything

I try. And with that first step I immerse myself into a realm completely separate from my reality, a dimension not of this world. I indulge. Walking a little further, I more fully appreciate all senses involved, most prominently that of olfaction, of taste, of palate. I devour. It is constant, and yet I am unaffected by the curse of habituation. I do not become accustomed to the should-be familiar taste, touch, feel, smell, sight.

And this is my very problem. I eat everything. I love to eat. I love to eat everything. And I can't stop...but I'm going to make it a point to do so. I'm not stopping my constant need to feed for physically aesthetic reasons (if I wanted to be stick skinny, I would have strayed from eating so much in the first place). But I'd just like to experiment -- there are thousands of healthy food recipes out there, and making an art out of creating more such recipes could be cool, interesting, and who knows, maybe even a little fun?

So this is my last hurray. Tomorrow begins a new day, a new week, a new month (lol jk it's still April) - a new chance to renew, cleanse, and throw some detoxification in my diet. Today I eat cannolis, tomorrow I eat plants. I will throw out my old pantry and refill it with flax seeds, raisins, fruits, and shove vegetables into my refrigerator. I already love broccoli and cucumber, and I hope to expand my personal list of yummy greens.

I'm already excited. I love tossing cucumbers with just a hint of salt and pepper - and that's all. No messy dressing to drown my greens. Minimizing the effort while maximizing outcome.

I will take numerous photos and document my edible experimentations. Be prepared for smoothies, salad, wrap, sandwich, and soup recipes. Okay that's all.

  1. hi, I'm your number one fan. This post inspired me to the core to want to invest in such a plan. I'm not interested in stick thin either, I'm interested in comfort and confidence. Be my cleanse buddy? That is all. (i has some healthful recipes I can dig out as well) :D Carry on.
