about eating

i mentioned here the awesome weight gain i experienced on drugs.
i got off the drugs and then got back on because i still can't quite get a grip on life.
then, i mentioned my fabulous eating habits too.
apparently no amount of exercising can make up for the fact that i am treating my body like i am a 15 year old boy.
i am currently on day two of at least two weeks of a 'detox diet.'
yesterday really sucked.
i will not be enjoying fried chicken, chocolate, milk, bread, pasta, or potatoes in any form.
i am lazy and now have to cook almost everything i eat.
bleh.
i did go shopping today and bought chicken breats (for grilling only), fruit and more fruit, and some fruit and nut bars.
i have to give myself a little leeway so i will be indulging in yogurt with my fruit and one lonely piece of laffy taffy a night.
hey, i need those corny jokes.
if i don't lose 20 lbs in about 3 days i might just cry.

homemade chocolate ice cream

food for thought.......

what do i eat?
well, i prefer chicken to red meat, fruits to veggies, and chocolate to vanilla.
as far as preparation goes, deep frying is the way to go.
i would eat fried chicken everyday of the year if i thought my heart could handle it.

what won't i eat?
honestly, that list is too long to really even begin to answer.
i enjoy plain (and salty) food.
i do not like things like onions and peppers touching my tongue, but i don't actually mind the flavor.
if i eat anything chinese or mexican, its a really watered down version.
plus, i like to sniff things before i try them so i don't waste time trying to get a gross taste out of my mouth.

do i have any interesting pairings that i would like to share?
obviously not, i am far to plain for that.

what studio snacks do i eat?
maybe a couple of pieces of candy.
my studio time is so limited that i don't really need to snack.

do i have a favorite recipe that i would like to share?
sure, i have been into homemade ice cream and homemade cookies lately.
a couple of weeks ago i made some really dark (almost black) and rich chocolate ice cream.
you can find the recipe here.
the two tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa turned into two heaping tablespoons of special dark cocoa
and the two ozs of semisweet chips turned into some semisweet chips since i just poured some directly from the bag.
