I have many interests. Recently, I've discovered weeding. I go to the neighborhood farm and I pick a row of needy vegetables and I dig into the earth - I give them space, save them from strangulation and make their growing life trouble free, if only temporarily. I have found this need to eliminate excess and create a straight path has crossed over into other parts of my life.
The summer started out great. I was on a regiment of diet and exercise. I could practice yoga, enjoy healthy foods, etc. Then somewhere things got out of whack, and here I am contemplating a detox or juice diet and so I have decided that I will try to spend the rest of the year pizza and nacho free (they are my comfort foods eaten in excess). I have a tv show I like (Perception). A point was made recently on the show that pizza is like sex: even when its bad, its good. I agree. It's a perfect food. But I really want to lose 40 pounds, and something has to give.
I just indulged in wonderful pepperoni pizza from City Pizza in So. Philly. Absolutely wonderful! Here I go. On the pizza wagon.
It is because I'm very far from the point where I can eat it and not be excessive. I have a very easy time justifying the extra slice. Justifying pepperoni instead of veggie. So I just need to reel myself in.
