Organic eating

Well so far I have not had one diet coke and I have a ton of it at my house. I bought 5 liters of it on sale before I read Skinny Bitch. Plus I have 4 cases of it that I'm donating to the school for a fundraiser. But I have been good and have resisted temptation (so far). As far as the milk thing, that's no problem whatsoever. I have never been a milk drinker but I do love cheese (all kinds of cheese from cream cheese, brie, to nacho cheese). So that's going to be really hard to give up if that's what I decide to do. I just bought soy cheese but I have not tried it yet. I have also recently bought organic products. I bought some organic frozen waffles, whole organic maple syrup, crackers and cookies (the oreo kind, yes can you believe it). I can tell the difference like in the waffles for example; normally I would eat the Eggo brand and would eat about 3 at a time with the "fake" Aunt Jamima syrup and crave more. But these were organic blueberry waffles and they were nice and filling (maybe cuz they are made whith whole organic wheat flour).

I was doing so good this morning. I had a banana, organic waffles, and soy breakfast saugage. Then after breakfast I started baking for the school social and of course I had to tast test the cookies and brownies. Ugh, I ended eating so many that I didn't even eat lunch. My stomach was so jacked up after that. I really think I'm addicted to sugar! Sweets are my biggest vice! But thank God according to the book you can still eat sweets as long as they are made with natural "raw" sugar and other organic ingredients. Yesterday I bought the Skinny Bitch in the Kitch and it's loaded with all kinds of receipes like french toast, mac n cheese, and desserts! I can't wait to try out these recipes. Oh and those organic crackers and cookies I bought (at Target of all places) are pretty darn good. So after I finish eating all my Smart Ones and Lean Cuisines and sugar free crap I'm slowly going to replace my kitchen with healthier and organic products. I know this is going to be a slow process but it's one that I'm becoming quickly passionate about. In high school I remember reading literature like the slaughter house and gave up red meat and pork. I have not eaten it since. Since reading Skinny Bitch I am feeling that passion about animal rights and the food industry again and I'm sorry I haven't been very active in it since. I started college as pre-vet medicine before I changed my major to small business management. It's so easy to lose touch with what you are passionate about when you get married so young and have children. But I'm excited to see what the near future and my health that follows.
