I fell off the daily blogging bandwagon a bit but I’m still doing OK with food. I did have coffee yesterday but in the afternoon not in the morning and with only the 2 sugars. I’ve been doing a decent job of cutting back on the amount of sugar I eat but I should stop referring to it as the 21 day sugar detox. I’m not really following the detox rules at all. I have dramatically cut back on sugar and carbs but haven’t stopped eating them completely. I had mexican takeout again for dinner last night and will probably have left overs again tonight or tomorrow. I know it’s not the greatest option but overall I’m doing pretty well with salads and such.
Today is Saturday so I got to sleep in today (yay!) and then this afternoon I made bacon and eggs for brunch. I had a mug full of milk to drink with my food. OMG, I totally meant to blog this before but forgot… Guess what I found at the grocery store by my apartment this week? Non-homogenized, lightly pasteurized GRASS-FED MILK!
A little history… a few years ago when I first started learning about food and started trying to eat better, healthier foods I started going to the farmer’s market for pastured eggs, chicken and grass-fed milk. . I used to spend 3+ hours on a Saturday taking the subway to the farmer’s market, shopping and then hauling all that heavy shit home in the summer heat. I’ve spent a lot of time and energy over the years identifying more convenient sources for the food items I want to eat. I can get local grass-fed meat delivered to my door from Fresh Direct and now grass-fed milk is available less than 50 yards from my front door. Yep, that’s right folks… things really are changing.
