Yesterday the receptionist came up to me and said. “You know, I can see you from where I’m sitting and my god woman, all you do is eat.” I thought about it for a moment. Well, actually, it’s been some time that I’ve been thinking about my diet. I’m always trying to eat less. I think most women are, at any point of time in their lives, most women are on some kind of crazy diet (gluten-free, carb-free, fat-free, chocolate-free, sugar-free etc.). The only thing is, people are always wondering how I can eat so much, my mother is always wondering why I eat so much, and I’m always wondering about what I can eat next. I’ve been called a human tapeworm and I’ve entertained the thought of having tapeworm. Since Monday I’ve stopped eating at night. Now I eat even more during the day. I think I’m getting obsessed. Let it be known, I’ve made a pact with my colleague Richelle to not eat chocolate. (Yes ‘choc o’clock’ (3 pm) has been put on hiatus for some indefinite period- or until I get my period.)
Today I’m starting my food diary, I’ll try and keep it up for a week.
