And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Iiiiik! You kill the coffee!

Nah, just turns it into a cafe au lait.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

You know what I discovered once? Putting cream in your coffee is one thing, and milk entirely another. Cream has a sell-by date like, months later than when you buy it; milk lives for ten days and then curdles your coffee. Surprise!

For the slacktivist among us, cream is a defense against death by curdled milk.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

WOOT!!!! What flavors??? Eat the chip flavors. And then move on to the non-chip flavors. Eat it all. Especially if they included pumpkin.

I only got to peek for a second, but I know they have black raspberry chip.

Want the pumpkin though too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm not even about it being healthy. I'm about knowing what it is you're putting in your mouth, not just guessing, if you have a goal.

I eat like crap, but certain sorts of crap. Crap aligned with my goals crap, or crap that I know is going against what I want to achieve. But that's because I know a simple from a complex carb, and the like.

Okay, "just" maming it then.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I just discovered that a) today is ice cream day here, and b) they had the ice cream shipped in from Graeters.

OH YUM.

I'm not even about it being healthy. I'm about knowing what it is you're putting in your mouth, not just guessing, if you have a goal.

EXACTLY. I'm never surprised with what my weight is doing. Even when I'm eating a ton of crap, it's not like I don't know what I'm doing.

Although I have to say, I was really surprised with how few calories the early Atkins plan had, once I put in in fitday, because I was eating so much fat (relatively) and was so satisfied. I was also eating more vegetables than I tend to on my own, since I will literally eat nothing but white food all day, left to my own devices.

ita is me.

My eating habits suck, but they suck in ways I'm both aware of and willing to live with.

Well, me I do get surprised. That whole starting running thing seems to have altered my weight in ways I hadn't predicted. I've stopped running now, because my PT told me to, so I'm mostly back on track (pun unintended). But still ... it's not like I was doing more exercise than normal. Just different exercise.

Of course, there are factors other than food and exercise that come into play. But if you can't recognise a carb at ten paces, shut up.

move out and draw fire

Wrod.

It's not like it's hard to find out what your food is.
