Tired eyes are gone
December 14th, 2007
It’s funny, I’ve looked in the mirror the past couple days and thought, “Boy, I do look pretty.” There can be an amazing transformation in one’s face when there’s so much less stress in life… My greenish brown eyes are shining again, and I’m back to a peaches and cream, rather than slightly grayish, coloration in my face.
Flush with joy from ending the semester, I have let my dieting slip up a bit week. I don’t just mean that I have eaten too much (although I have); really, I’ve just not paid much attention to what I have eaten. So, now I want to spread the joy to my plate and eat tasty, healthy things. I’m visiting my boyfriend this weekend, a time that could be a minefield of unhealthy food. But, I’m going with my food notebook in hand as a motivating tool. Really, I don’t want to look back on Monday morning and see “biscuits and gravy” as one of my meals. Wouldn’t “sea bass en papillote” look, not to mention taste, so much better?
