I’ve been trying to eat healthy, not a super restrictive diet but still consciously choosing whole, healthy foods, and exercising. Well we have this local Filipino food truck and today a friend brought me food; they do these boxes that have like a half rack of ribs, pancit, and rice, and when I tell you I can put those away like no one I’ve met. It’s not like I could waste food anyway, so I had to initiate a cheat day and eat the ribs😌

As my cousin Ronnie would jokingly say at family reunions, I’m on the seafood diet—I see food, I eat it!!
I have historically had a problem with overeating snacks and if I buy chips it’s really easy for me to eat them all in one sitting. I embrace an ingredients household mindset and try to only buy whole foods based snacks like cheese, nuts, etc that are so boring and wholesome they’re kind of hard to eat too much of them.
Demonic food scientists and executives at corporate conglomerate food manufacturers, many of whom worked at cigarette companies in the past, have engineered hyper processed foods to be optimally addictive. I replace the chips I used to be addicted to with alternative snacks that use better ingredients and typically come in much smaller bags—I have yet to find my methadone for my drug of choice, HOT CHEETOS because I’m OPPRESSED and the bougie snack industry evidently doesn’t care about MY NEEDS—and I portion them out into bowls when I eat them then put the bag away.
If you have some kind of an Uber Eats/Doordash problem then delete those apps because it’s too easy to just summon whatever you want whenever you want, on a whim. Make it so if you want to get food you have to go out and work for it. Add friction to counterbalance your impulsive nature! And when you eat, eat mindfully and slowly.
Also if you’re regularly craving certain foods I hear that it can have something to do with nutritional imbalance so be mindful of that…

A friend of mine took a pic of me at a dead show at the gorge last summer and i was wild out of control. I needed to get my act together.I started eating right…not dieting…just making smarter decisions.I got back to the gym.I walk my dog three and a half miles a day wearing a weighted rucksack.Changed my life.I feel so much better and what it does to calm my mind is invaluable.

I am trying to get 20-30 plant foods in per week but I be busy as fuck and the thought gets overwhelming so here’s what I’ve come up with…
I take 10 minutes to chop up three days worth of some raw veggies that I like to eat on the side of whatever protein.
what is “whatever protein”? Cheese squares, cold cuts, cottage cheese, lentils/beans/any legume, meat from a rotisserie chicken or a pot roast that I prepped (also so hands off and easy).
to further boost my plant intake, I have a mix of a bunch of random nuts and seeds that I can rely on.
for something sweet, I plop a few scoops of Greek yogurt into a container and throw frozen berries and mango on top.
EASY. Nourished.
I am allotted Diet Coke as well, I’m not a sadist!!!???!!?!?

I know I’ve ranted about AI before but! Just saw another writer who was doing peer reviews as she was writing chapters with another person; until she found out the other person was using AI for their NOVEL! Blows my mind. She removed this person from her document and sent her a kind but straightforward message about how she won’t be working with her going forward due to the AI usage. I feel like using it for novel writing is one of the most insane uses because #1 this person told me that the AI generated parts of the work weren’t even as good as the other person’s normal writing was. #2 let’s say no one noticed and you published with the AI work, so you would be okay if the book did well but it wasn’t even truly your writing that people would be praising?? Not to mention of course the morality and environmental impact.
Also, I was shopping around today for a custom leather stamp to start stamping the leather journal covers I make. Thought I found someone to make it until they said to send the logo file over and they’ll send back AI created renderings of a mockup to approve. Now I am starting the search all over🙃

Today was one of those bad days where it causes a headache and you feel exhausted from everything, but somehow a nice long walk outside made things seem a little better. Fresh air and thinking or daydreaming while listening to the sounds of outside.
I sometimes find myself taking for granted the place that I live, I work or I’m too tired and I use that as an excuse to not go outside more. Yet every time I get the chance to spend the time outside, I can’t say I ever regret it.
I’m going to make it a goal for myself to try and take a walk outside at least a few times a week.
