    I have tried 5 times recently to make crispy sweet potato fries and I ruined them every time so today I tried something else: plantains. I made tostones fried in lard and YUM. Next time I'll keep the heat a little lower and make them thinner.

In high school my body started to change and I got an eating disorder...because my diet was so poor when I did eat I was sick and exhausted at just 15.

    I experimented w veganism in college but when I broke up with a boyfriend it led to the same cycle of restricting, feeling like crap and then overloading on coffee and alcohol.

    About two years ago at my thinnest (after a brief weekend cocaine habit) I was trying to get my life together and my doctor prescribed me an antidepressant for the first time in my life. I had avoided them after watching what they did to people but I was so desperate I tried it. It gave me a seizure after only two weeks of taking it (during which I felt nuts the whole time).

    My body totally shut down...blood pressure plummeted, couldn't crap for weeks at a time, skin dried up. I thought I was gonna die. First I lost even more weight then I ballooned, developed bulimia...

    It's been such a long process experimenting and finding what works for me and I'm still not done but blended foods w a lot of greens saved me and reset my system. I love kimberlysnyder.net/blog and the Ann wigmore philosophy. I try to alkalize and detox in the morning and be more intuitive w my later meals based on how I feel but gluten free, dairy free, food combining, and blended foods are the core guidelines I try to follow to stay well.

    That being said I still let myself have things if I crave them (yesterday: papaya romaine smoothie for lunch, then a vegan burrito. Do I eat them regularly...no. But being dogmatic is just as bad as being too lax I think)

    I'm 25...when things were really bad I was so angry about being sick and the meds that they gave me but it turned out to be a good thing because I learned how to take care of myself and I feel really good these days
    Incredible story. Seriously, thank you for sharing.

    I had a home-made flatbread pizza and a coke. I'll probably eat the same thing tomorrow night since there's leftovers.

    I believe they had that at the Texas State Fair last year. Its sounds disgusting and instantly heart attack inducing.

    Don't think I could, the melting point is so low! You know, for a while I was making adobo bistec so much that I got sick of it and just recently I started craving it again.

    As for fried lard at state fairs, I saw fried butter once and turns out it was more like breading fried in butter, not an actual stick of fried butter. Omg now I want a good ole deep-fried oreo.

    ---------------------------------

    Today I had:

    • a cup of black coffee
    • a 2 egg omelet with sauteed green beans and mushrooms, all cooked in butter
    • tostones fried in ghee
    • a coconut water
    • a mango

    I threw a bunch of leftovers together into a makeshift shepherd's pie.....

    Leftover turkey loaf (ground into crumbles), layered with leftover frozen mixed vegetables, then I boiled some leftover red potatoes, mashed them with butter, salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper and put that on top. It's baking in the oven now

    Today I was a behemoth. I went to the movies so there was soda, popcorn, milk duds, nestle crunch, m&m's..... On the bright side though I got on my friend's scale and am over 10lbs lighter than the last time I got on it.

    200 calorie chocolate & almond shake
    banana, blueberry, almond milk, spinach, & pineapple smoothie. OMG so delicious! roughly 300 calories
    Broccoli and carrots can be steamed. If you have a shallow pot and a heavy lid it's easily done. As for the mushrooms, just chop them up and sautee them with your eggs.

    Congrats BOTM!
    I picked up a cheapo rice maker ("Aroma" is the brand name) from Target last week and it also works as a food steamer. You can steam veggies, fish, etc. It cooks the rice decently but I was reeeeally happy with how my broccoli and cauliflower turned out. You can sprinkle just a little bit of sea salt on them and they taste wonderful with zero oil. I'm gonna try out sweet potatoes tomorrow since it's the only food I microwave and it would be nice to not nuke 'em since I eat so many.

    So far today I made banana soft serve (three frozen bananas in the food processor, add vanilla bean + cacao) and it tasted like a jack n the box milkshake.

    Over the weekend I plan to experiment with less fruit (bananas, pineapple and watermelon especially are out) and more green juice, steamed veggies, seaweed, and rice. I love fruit but I feel I have better concentration when I keep it low glycemic.
