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?

Hooray for feeling pretty!
Having a boyfriend is hard. I’m wrestling with that one myself. My sweetie is very supportive, but is really pretty clueless when it comes to eating healthy.

I’m so happy not only that you’re looking better, but mainly that you’re feeling better about how you look!
Good plan for the weekend - and sea bass en papillotte sounds really good to me - love sea bass!

Whenever I think of sea bass I just think of the movie Dumb and Dumber when some rednecks encourage a friend to “kick his a$$ Seabass!”
good stuff
