Sad

I'm looking at meal plans so I can lose weight/get fitter/stop being about an eyelash-width away from diabetes etc., since the boy and I have been talking about maybe trying for kids next year.

Unfortunately, chicken seems to be about the only thing I can stand on these lists.

They want me to eat blueberries. This is unacceptable

Can I eat the blueberries for you? OM NOM NOM SUMMER FRUITS. Then I could just, like, regurgitate the nutrients?, mama-bird style, or something, and send them back to you. Innovative solutions for the health-conscious!

This is a great idea and we need to find a way to make it function. We'll be millionaires :D

Whoops, logged into my writing journal there. :p

I love that icon, btw. I adored that book :D

I APPROVE THIS PLANS. Blueberries are my faaaavorite. I would rather eat them when depressed than chocolate.

Can you have ground / minced chicken? Really, chicken is pretty darn good, because it goes with so many different types of spices. Perhaps turkey? I rarely eat any other meat than birds, and I haven't missed the others. *shrug*

Incidentally, what's unacceptable about blueberries? Their very short life in the general scheme of things, like they're rarely available except for a couple of months in the summer? There's always strawberries, raspberries, and lots of other sorts of berries, too!

Actually, chicken is the one thing I can stand out of most recommended healthy noms. I will eaten chicken about as often as someone is willing to cook it for me (I don't unless I'm doing a specific recipe. Chicken and I... we had an incident when it comes to cooking :p)

The problem with blueberries is that they are revolting. Also avocado, Brussels sprouts, raisins unless in something (that one's a texture thing), and I'm not coming within a foot of fish, ew ew no.

I actually do like some healthy stuff. Sweet potatoes, broccoli, fruits, spinach... most leafy greens, in fact. I just get all :( at lists that tell me the healthiest stuff is stuff I won't eat.

I really understand the thought of brussels sprouts being revolting, but avocado?! Guacamole?!

I understand your reaction to those lists, really.
