well, not really. it turns out, being vegetarian is not for me (atleast, not for now). i don't think i can ever give up chicken. i don't think that i could call myself a vegetarian either if i always feel deprived. it should be a way of life; not something i should force myself into.
so, you guessed it, i gave in and baked some good ol' zesty chicken yesterday (that i perfected myself, thank you very much). no, really, i concocted this on my own. recipe here, if you're interested.
atleast, i lasted longer than two weeks this year. my healthy diet will still consist of lots of veggies with meat intake once in a while. i don't eat pork anymore though. i don't know, i never really liked it unless it was sinigang spare ribs or baby back ribs. really, the only reason i don't want to eat meat (pork/beef) is cuz i read a lot of articles about hormones (for kids' growth mostly) to meat they sell here in the US. they even add hormones to some of the milks (i forgot
what it was called).this resulted with many kids being obese and remained obese thru their adult lives. there's this book called food nation and it tells you why food in america makes you fat. isn't that scary? no wonder teenagers have clogged arteris here.
eeek! it's one thing to be chubby but it's scary to be obese. there are a lot of diseases linked to obesity. do i really want to let myself go through all that hassle? no.. hellfreaking NO!
i don't have much proof about the articles i've read but hoax or no hoax -- it's better to take caution. packing so much weight within 1-2 months with normal eating habbitsis enough proof for me.
oh, speaking of health. i may have found a delicious treatment for migraine. this one i didn't discover myself but this portion of my blog is for gailaloo. i found out from some guy (who apparently is a bigger health nut than i am) that dark chocolate is good for migraine. isn't that awesome? i don't know if it's psychosomatic, it's not migraine but i've been having these really bad headaches for days (i guess, i was post.m.sing) and then, i tried eating cookies with dark chocolate chips for breakfast.. so.. guess what? it went away. i ate it for like 4 or 5 days though. haha. i'm not so sure if it's such a healthy breakfast but maybe you could find a sugar-free one you could eat regularly in place of your candy munchies.
also, i read an article about migraine, it said that acupuncture helps treat migraine. i don't know if you're up for it though? i'm not so thirlled about the idea of niddles being poked on me. i don't know. i guess, i just wanted you to know. i never got around googling food nutrients that prevents migraine but i hope this helps. *smiles*
anyways, we're scrambling like ants being poked at my little kids (not really knowing where to run or what to do) cuz we're having this surprise party for my cousin's husband's birthday. it's going to be italian themed. and we're not even done with half of the stuff we're supposed to make. i already marinated the chicken i'm making tomorrow (chicken parmigiana) but i still have to make a tray of lasagna. i don't even know if i'm going to be able to make it right cuz i haven't made lasagna in forever dude! i'm just like, damn it! next time we're throwing a party and it's not filipino food -- WE'RE ORDERING IT! and my cousin just straight out laughs at me cuz it was my big bright idea to cook ourselves. daaang! i just remembered, i still need to make garlic bread. and i'm still missing ground beef for the lasagna and tomatoes for the chicken parmigiana. aaaaah! i'm going to go crazy..
i think, i need me some big ol' chunk of dark chocolate!! hahahahaha
