Adina’s Cute & Perky Blog!

Midday, Perky People!

I didn’t have to work today, so my post is not going up at the right time AT ALL!!! 

But…GET OVER IT!!!  It’s a day off.  I slept in, which for me means sleeping till 7:00.  My people don’t need a lot of sleep!

But here’s what you need to know!  I’m sitting here typing sausage fingers today.  Puffy and non-bendy.

It was Thanksgiving Day yesterday, and I had did enjoy a regular Thanksgiving meal.

Calorie-wise, I’m sure I didn’t go too far over.  I mean turkey is not bad.  But it was the way in which the other foods were cooked.

Over the last year, I kicked my salt addiction.  I was one of those people who could pour it in my hand and just lick it.  I know.  That’s bad!!!  But…it’s true!!

I NEVER tasted before I salted!  But when I first started the diet I am on now, I decided it was time to kick this addiction too.  My last remaining one.

OH MY LORD!  I was miserable!!! 

I had to all but slap my hand to stay away from the salt shaker!!!

But…it WAS my last of the foodly vices, and I had conquered everything else.

And that misery only lasted a week.

Then, slowly I emerged.

I began to taste the food.  Really taste it.

And the last time I used a salt shaker, I had to throw the food out.  What I intended for a treat, felt like it was going to burn my tongue right out of my mouth!

Arriving at today, where just the normal Thanksgiving food leaves its mark on me, puffy fingers attached to a body that just doesn’t feel as energetic today.

And I am reminded of something.  Those quirky eating habits I have are the reason I don’t feel like this every day.  I mean, I used to feel like that all the time.

And while I had a good day yesterday, I am happy to be back to my quirky way of life!  Because bendy fingers trump salty, bad-for-you food any old day of the week!  And I like feeling bendy and good!!
