well...i eat like a college student, lol. i love me some papa johns pizza. the one here has $5 large one-topping on tuesday nights. the line waiting for pickup on tuesdays stretches waaaaay out in to the parking lot.
but usually, i try to eat soup with brown rice and chicken for lunch and then whatever my boyfriend makes for dinner - usually a pork chop or steak with vegetables. he's veeeeeery southern, so we eat more traditional meat-and-potatoes stuff because he usually cooks. his parents plant a big garden every year and we have a deep freezer in the basement with a bunch of their stuff. oddly enough, we're also big fans of homemade quesadillas.
in all honesty, though, i adore fast food. if it comes in a foil wrapper, i'm all about it. i wish i could say that it grossed me out or that i thought it tasted bad, but i'm a child of the suburbs and it's what i grew up on. that and chinese food buffets - i'm a sucker for some crab rangoon.
i can also plow through a 6-pack a day of diet coke, easily. usually by the time i make it to my 9 a.m. class, i'm on my second can, and i won't stop until right before i go to bed. if i'm going anywhere in my car, even if it's to the post office down the street, grabbing a can of diet coke is as natural to me as grabbing my keys. if i run out of it, i get horrible headaches. if i'm holding an unopened can or bottle and can't open it until i sit down (or something) my mouth gets dry as a bone until i can take the first sip. i am fully addicted, and it's kind of scary. my mouth got dry now as i wrote that.
mostly i do try to eat healthily, though, because i feel better physically and mentally when i do. but the temptation to deviate from that is huge. writing it out like that helps, though, because i was completely honest with you guys when usually i'm not completely honest with myself about it.
time to start that diet again.
