Busting all of the sugar.
I got the results from my bloodwork the other day, and my cholesterol was high. (Was also high last year which I chose to ignore). My doctor wants me to go on the Sugar Busters diet and then she’ll check my levels again in 2 months. A few thoughts on this:
- Eliminating sugar from my diet will be quite painful. She might as well have told me to stop breathing and to stab things in my eyes. If you recall, immediately after my physical, I devoured an entire red velvet cupcake since I was made to skip breakfast.
- I downloaded the “Shopping Guide” book for the SB diet to my kindle so I could grocery shop immediately for only things I should be eating. Considering this diet is from 1995 and most of the items on the “acceptable foods” list are Sugar Busters branded items (which are no longer in production) - it was a long grocery store trip which resulted in not many things bought.
- I almost cried to Kevin in the car yesterday when we passed a Sonic and I saw they have a Pumpkin Pie Shake. I am pathetic and a slave to desserts.
- I’ve already decided that I will break the diet for 2 things: When I get my tumblr eatups in the mail and for Thanksgiving because….fuck it…what is the point in living a long life if sweets aren’t involved?
- I hate that this whole post sounds like a Cathy cartoon
