Urgh
I've been trying to eat well this semester, but I decided to toss that out the window for this week for two reasons:
(1) Finals -- I need to study, and I get cranky and unproductive when I'm hungry.
(2) Moving out -- want to consume the food I've accumulated.
So this week has been a weird mishmash of trying to eat all the stuff in the bin under my bed, and eating whatever the hell I want.
And my body doesn't seem to like it. Today I was eating sausages on toast and I just felt sick, somehow unclean and clogged with grease and grime. Urgh. It was the same sort of feeling I get when I haven't been outside or done anything productive all day.
Then on my way to a meeting, I bought one of those hippie all-natural superfood fruit juice things. It was too sweet and too concentrated, but except for that it just felt so good, in a way that was hard to characterize. It felt like being cleansed, somehow. The walking outdoors in gorgeous weather probably didn't hurt, either.
...The signs are clear now, damn it. Time to start eating more plants. Time to try making those random-fruits-and-veg blends myself. Time to go (mostly) vegetarian.
Edit, later: mmmm, veggie Anna's burrito. Not entirely vegetarian (the mexican rice has chicken broth). Nom nom nom nom. Get one when there isn't a huge line; they take extra time to make sure you have a nice mix of vegetables, instead of just grabbing whatever out of the bin and cutting it up.
