i'm doing the bon appetit food lover's cleanse which i am oddly very excited about. i mean, i've CHOSEN to do it, so i guess i should be excited. no dairy other than yogurt (apparently dairy is hard for your digestive system to digest, so we are "giving our stomachs a break" or something), lots of whole grains, only four alcoholic drinks a week. i am subbing in vegetarian meals when the "cleanse" tries to make me eat meat (tofu stir fries and lentil soups, among other things). i am personally going to focus on portion size - i eat pretty healthily in general, but i also probably eat twice as much as i should for dinner on a regular basis. so there's that.
after purchasing only alcohol at the grocery store on 12/31, i purchased only good shit on 1/1. i bought things i've never eaten by choice before. chia seeds! barley! steel cut oats!
i feel so superior to other humans. is this what healthy people feel like on a daily basis?
i made a batch of oatmeal yesterday, and portioned it into four tupperwares for breakfast. today i added honey and almond milk and raspberries and it was actually delicious.
i made a batch of barley yesterday, too, and i had to eat some of that at lunch and it was fine and all but not, you know, delicious in any sense of the world.
to be continued.
