Check out the new peanut butter recall list!
Not even the products from Whole Foods and Trader Joe's are safe. I had to throw out four Larabars. I was pissed.

Anorexia is the New Pink!
Sorry to be so absent this last month. I decided to go back to school. Currently, I'm teaching school, going to school, writing a book, and helping run a bookstore.
Surprisingly, I've been feeling a lot better. For one major reason. I don't have time to eat anymore.
A few books I've recently consulted hooked me up with some of the best coping tactics for IBS. One suggested eating extremely small meals. Another offered Artichoke Extract. The latter I've yet to try. I'm a student again, ya know? There's no extra dough for the fun trials anymore.
BUT the not eating thing. I know it's horrible to raise my glass to it. You know what though? It really really works.
Of course I eat. I just only eat when I'm really really really hungry. That's something I haven't done since childhood. (Or since I discovered Acme's Deluxe Dinner Mac n' Cheese).
If I had a nickle for everytime I said this, I wouldn't have to go back to school.
Our bodies are SO different. For years, I tried to keep up with boyfriends and family and friends at the dinner table. When the picky eater died in me and I started to enjoy food, I WANTED to be able to keep up with everyone. Depression didn't help either. Sometimes food just tastes so good, you don't want that feeling to end. Try to prolong it though, and you hurt yourself even worse.
Picture Fat Bastard lumbering in right about now, and saying: "I eat because I'm unhappy. And I'm unhappy because I eat."
Most Americans look to fill up on substances when they feel unhappy. Me? I think that you can't decide until you've tried the alternative. The "Wait-and-See."

I Hate Gwenyth Paltrow
But what do you think of her detox diet? It's not unlike what I eat every day, minus the exclusion of alcohol.
C'mon. Who can get through a day without a glass of red promised at the end of it?
It explains a lot about ol' Goopy.
