continuing my series on orthorexia, i discovered something today that made me very happy (and being orthorexic, i automatically felt a feeling of superiority over other meat and non-vegetable eaters).
did you know that a medium stalk of broccoli (about 3 florets) contains 5g of fiber and 5g of protein with virtually no fat or cholesterol? well, i have been eating about twice this quantity everyday for the last month and i feel great and am losing weight a la jared!
of course broccoli’s history brings to mind that famous new yorker cartoon by e.b.white(who preferred to remain anonymous):
,
but i say steam it, add madras curry powder to it or, heck, even just drown it in vodka, but have some of it whenever you can. it do you good.
yay for broccoli!

and the scary thing is that the article mentions some of the exact symptoms i am displaying like taking only the healthy portions of unhealthy foods, reading the labels almost maniacally and also serially stopping certian classes of foods (already on the do not eat list: pasta, rice, nuts, cream cheese).
but the reason i am not really all there yet, is that i still love pizza (and milk shakes and icecream and cakes). just be there when i am at a pizza hut or sweet tomatoes buffet and you can be assured of a sight that is truly special (no, that’s not me, but you get the idea!).
and hey, atleast i am not anorexic!
