Growl!
Uncategorized February 26th, 2009As in my stomach just did. Weird. So, I have been on an ingredient quest, banishing anything not acceptable, and I was shocked at what I found! You know, there are things that I examine the ingredients of carefully, snacks for the boys, crackers, drinks of any kind, and then there are things that I don’t inspect so much. Things like my All Bran cereal that I eat. Every morning. That contains high fructose corn syrup. ICK. I mean, it’s freaking All Bran, but apparently it isn’t ALL anything. HFCS is banned in this house, no matter what the idiots who produce those commercials say. It ISN’T ok, even in moderation. So now I have to find a new breakfast cereal. Or go back to oatmeal. Which I love. Speaking of food, I need to decide what I am giving up for Lent. The hubby and boys are giving up soda, but I don’t drink it so that would be cheating to give it up. I was thinking sugar, but that would be hard because I would have to define what I mean by sugar. Fresh pineapple contains sugar. So maybe just processed sugar? I’ll letcha know
I am going to go for my run now. After last night’s debauchery I should run about 5 bazillion miles, but I will settle for 3. I’m gonna aim for naything between 3 and 4 miles, though. We’ll see. Yesterday’s 4 miles was pretty good. It’s that 3rd mile that’s killer. BOREDOM hits and there is no end in sight.
Happy Thursday, chickies!

Know what you mean about sugar. My personal favorite irksome thing is when a label lists five different types of *sweetners* (not all classified by the FDA as *sugar*) which tells me they are using so many different sweetners so proportionally SUGAR won’t be the main ingredient, but effectively, it is - just under five different pseudonyms. Now, aren’t you glad you brought this up?? lol Delita
