PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH

Wow, I can tell I've hit finals paper-writing time, because since I'm at the computer pretty much 24/7 I'm making like 3 gazillion LJ posts a day.

I've been trying to eat healthy for the past week and a half or so, and have actually been doing a pretty good job, all things considered. Today is a lost cause, though, I think, given that my response to the stress of paperwriting is "GOM GOM MUST EAT EVERYTHING IN SIGHT." In semi-related news, I totally found E.L. Fudge cookies today...I remember them well from childhood, but I didn't think they even made them anymore! :9

We are completely the same person. I'll be thinking, "You know, I should grade/write/whatever, but instead I'll write a livejournal entry and eat ice cream!" *Holds head in hands*

Courtney raised an interesting question; how do you eat healthy when you can't eat fruits or vegetables?

That's almost always my response too, haha. I usually give up on my healthy eating on days like that. D: ...also, totally did not know E.L. Fudge cookies were still around! Ooh.

Good luck with your papers Yosi!

When I'm in work mode, I'm the opposite, I just don't eat. And if it's a huge paper that I'm finishing, it's typical for me to just skip meals entirely and then gorge in between writing sessions. I probably would eat a lot if I kept snacks around the house, but in general I don't buy "snack" foods. So instead, I drink insane quantities of coffee or diet coke, not so much because I need the caffeine (I'm basically immune to caffeine now) but that consuming beverages helps stave off any hunger pangs I feel. It has gotten better lately, when I realized that a protein shake or a smoothie could satiate my body and actually provide needed calories, without the need to physically sit down and eat a meal.
