at 11:16 PMMe Want Cookie
I drank several glasses of lemonade and also imbibed two huge cups of Mountain Dew. I hope I don't wet the bed!
I need to go cold turkey on junk food/drinks again. I actually like fruits and vegetables well enough; I just don't eat them exclusively. Tomatoes, for instance- Pam and Chris just bought some on the way home from the Rams game this evening. I could probably make an entire meal out of tomatoes (after deleting the pulp, which reminds me of snot). I am also particular to cucumbers, green beans, lima beans, frozen corn (canned is gross), celery, and crisp lettuce that is medium-green in coloration (I do not accept limpy leaves).
The fruits I prefer (aside from the aforementioned ripe tomatoes) include strawberries, bananas, green grapes, oranges (although the acids in oranges sometimes conflict with whatever else happens to be in my stomach), peaches, pineapples, and kiwis. I usually only eat apples and cherries baked in pies. I do not consume whole lemons recreationally, and I avoid limes (when in a certain mood, I will eat key lime pie, but this occurs rarely). Raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries I only eat as jams or baked into breads and cakes; they're boring to eat plain.
I'm contemplating whether I should go the vegetarian route for awhile. Such a drastic measure might shock my system. I gave up bread entirely for a period my junior year; when I ate bread again, the first few times it ran right through me in about fifteen minutes. The results weren't pretty.
