Blog Entry #2: Our Love Must Part

                                                           

                    Food was always been my first love. I could not go two hours without eating, it just did not feel right. Ever since i was a young girl i have had a huge appetite and as the years pass it was just increasing.
                   As i mentioned before it was hard to not eat every 2-3 hours faithfully. From big meals to a bowl of cereal, I was satisfied. Lately i have been trying to slow down my food intake only because the summer is quickly approaching. We all want that "Summer Body". It is a difficult task but it is basically mind over matter, well mind over food in this case.
                   My mom does not make my goal for losing weight any easier. In addition to our special dinners on major holidays, she creates her own " food holidays", for example, "Breakfast For Dinner day" and " Thanksgiving just not in November Day". It is hard to resist the smell of yam and potato salad when your eating a salad with light dressing. But when i get the erg to cheat on my diet or have a pancake at 9 o'clock at night, i just work out. She will not get the best of me!
                    I remember in high school eating McDonalds every day. My friends thought i had a serious problem. They made me watch a documentary about how horrible and unhealthy McDonalds actually was. But that still did not make me turn my cheek to my second home. My mom use to tell me to apply there because i probably know how to make every sanwhich on the menu (i think i can). But thank God i work retail because if i ever was blessed to work at a restaurant (I have applied many of times) losing weight would not be a factor. Forget about that summer body I would be sporting my fat with no care in the world. But this is not the case so Food my dear, WE MUST PART!
