I told you I was a junk foodie.
Unfortunately for me, my love for junk food showed at my last physical. I've gained 5 pounds in 6 months and my cholesterol is 199 (borderline high). Yow! I did NOT see that coming!
Neither did my doctor, and let me tell you he was not happy with me. He sent me to a nutritionist (and then I was not happy with him). I just knew this nutritionist was going to try to take away all my yummy food. I'm a meat and potatoes kind of girl hon! Don't ask me to eat salad! Ewwww!
I went for my consultation the day before yesterday. I was right, by the way. The nutritionist does not like any of my favorite foods. Who doesn't like fried chicken? Seriously? Then to top it off she tells me I should try to cut out my sweet tea! Cut a girl some slack darlin'! I'm from the south. I need sweet tea like I need oxygen. I am not exaggerating. I'll give up my chicken, but please don't take my tea!
She finally caved on the sweet tea, but she suggested I should only use half a cup of sugar per gallon. Clearly she does not understand what sweet tea is.
She also wants me to count calories--something I must admit I am not very motivated to do. I am doing it. I am also trying to follow her food rules *sad face*. I already miss my butter.
I know I need to get healthy. I am making positive changes (suggested by the fried chicken hating nutritionist), but I have to to tell you---this isn't gonna be easy folks!
