It was the latest step in my promises to myself &#8211; to eat healthier, to treat my body better. Now I had already been doing okay with it for the past year &#8211; I&#8217;d switched to organic when possible, cut out almost all junk food snackies, more fruits and veggies (mostly strawberries and bananas for Den).<\/p>\n<p>Today I pushed it a little further. I added peaches and plums and raspberries and tomatos to my cart. I added a vanilla soy protein drink. (Protein, so I&#8217;ve heard, is good for developing mature eggs.) I tried some soy crisps as a healthy snack. I almost almost tried some soymilk but that was too scary for me&#8230; I am <i>very<\/i> picky about my milk. (I&#8217;m a milk snob&#8230; seriously, I&#8217;m now at the point that I can&#8217;t stand the taste of non-organic milk.) I also bought some whole wheat flatbreads to eat.<\/p>\n<p>I think the biggest problem I have with food is that I really don&#8217;t know what to do with healthy foods. I don&#8217;t know what to make with them; I don&#8217;t good meals that don&#8217;t require a bunch of yummy cheese or cream. I&#8217;m still working on it. I really want to make a change. And I really want to get back to cooking meals. I <i>enjoy<\/i> cooking. (That still surprizes and amuses me.) I just am not always thrilled about eating what comes out of the oven&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>I told Den we&#8217;re going on a diet and he is all for it. I just hope we can follow through.<\/p>\n<p>I got hungry this evening, as usual.
