do you ever find yourself wishing your body had some additional, cool, completely useless, but nonetheless cool functions? for instance, how about if our midsections, instead of uttering some growley jibberish when empty and hungry, actually audibly declared (in growley gurgles) exactly what we were hungry for? like... sgrmmmhrmmm-ICE-brmmm-CREAM.

this could be really useful. no more guessing games when out with friends and no one actually wants to pick the place to eat for fear of naming someplace nobody else wants to go. everyone's stomachs would just blurt out their food of choice and go from there.

i suppose this could also be potentially embarrassing. like how my stomach would perpetually be blurting out "french fries" and "ice cream" instead of the healthy things i have to willfully trick my stomach into eating. i guess the cat's out of the bag... i love french fries more than salads. surprise, surprise.

but, friends, tomorrow officially marks our 6th week of eating reformation, and i have to say, it's going remarkably well and, though my stomach would beg to differ if it could speak for itself, i am really retraining myself to think about food differently. like the fact that it's not there for comfort or to be my friend, but to fuel my body. maybe some of you are like, "duh," but not so for me. this is new, and good, and i have to admit i've never stuck with anything this healthy for this long.

if any of you out there are fed up with impossible diets, talk to me about my new buddy, weight watchers. we've become fast friends. :)
