What you think does matter

Have you noticed, when ever you go on a diet -your taste are not as picky as when you are free to eat what ever you want. I took a short break from my UHmmm healthy eating habbits and now I am back on again, you know, watching what I eat, how much I eat and so forth. But I was thinking about the super bowl, the food we are going to have [ may have, after all I am the only one on this diet]. I just couldn't help search the internet over to find some very interesting recipes, not only for superbowl game day, but something we could enjoy when ever we wanted. I guess, when you can not have something, you then feel like having it all becuase I am a picky picky eater and there were alot of things I would have never thought of trying, but boy do they all look good to eat.

I gave up the French fries I love so much at Mcdonalds and cut much of the junk food I ate out. Started having more salads and healthy food - you know the kind that has no taste......
