Laying down the goddamn law.

I'm formulating a plan. To stop eating things that are so awful for me. I used to do an admirable job at this unenviable task, but have fallen a little off the wagon, and my body has repayed me with obvious displeasure at my weakness.

So! I'm cutting out chocolate. yeah. Intense. But I think I really had better go cold turkey. Look out, because whenever I do this I tend to become a real beast. The chemicals in chocolate have a real powerful sway over me and I'd rather cut and run than wean myself off.

Second, I'm going to be alot more careful about how I've been oading up on carbs lately. Listen, just because pizza is an easy vegetarian option does not mean i must succumb to that path of least resistance. Henceforth I will go without dinner rather than eat another slic of goddamn store-bought pizza. I will make pizza at home with wheat dough and fresh ingredients, but I will not condone take-out anymore.

And take-out necessarily extends to all corners of the food spectrum. No. More. goddamn. take-out.

Not only is it wretched for my insides, but it's really doing a number on my already cash-strapped pocketbook, so that's it! No more. No mas. Nada. Nunca.

I've done it before and by god i will do it again. No more christing take out.

Exception being: chatta, and only chatta. Or maybe those wraps from Better bean because those are so healthy they'd make mother nature proud.

Ok, next declaration: I'm cutting wayyyyy the fuck back on iced coffees. YUP. even though I just this year discovered their awesomeness. too bad. I abused the privelege, and too many medium iced xta-xtras really adds inched to the old waistline, ya know?

so from now on here's the deal: I won't buy shitty iced coffee. Sorry dunks, sorry The dew, you are right the fuck out. you are a waste of time, money and empty calories. If I really really really want\need a goddamned iced coffee, then I had better make it worth my while, and that means only, ONLY MaryLou's is acceptable for consumption.

Which means a 10-15 minute detour way the fuck out of my way, so this is good because it will help curb the habit.

ALSO. Just, more greens and more fresh. it really won't kill me to have some goddamn salad, for instance. so more of that. and less fried.

No more onion rings. another food I have only just recently discovered that I love. too bad. they are a very-occasionalyy-once-in-a-great-while indulgence. Like corndogs used to be for me. a special little awful-for-you treat. not a once-a-week thing.

Ok. what am i forgetting? IDK. but them's the breaks. Oh, yeah, and am cutting way back on sugar too. this is another thing I've done in the past and it worked out pretty well for me. So into the breach once more my friends.

wish me luck.

Enough is enough right?

how about a little dark chocolate every now and then because it's actually good for you.
