Culinary apathy
As part of my marathon training, I need to get back into the habit of eating healthy foods. You know – whole foods, low sodium foods, unprocessed foods. Boring foods.
In fairness, not all healthy food is boring. But sometimes it seems like it is.
Case in point: All week long I’ve had brown rice and vegetables for lunch. Sometimes they were fresh, crisp, raw veggie sticks, other times they were left-over veggies from the night before. It tastes nice, but it’s not as lovely as deep-fried junk food!
Oh well. At least I’m out of brown rice now so will have to have something less boring for tomorrow’s lunch. Something nice and greasy for a Friday afternoon. Yes, that sounds nice.
Plus, one of the best ways to stay on track with healthy eating is to allow yourself treats every now and then. So, really, a Friday junk food fix will help with my healthy eating goals! (Right?)
Treats definitely allowed. It’s the only way!
