When The Kitchen Locks Down, The Diet Goes Out The Window

It is said that God made the world in seven days,  so I figured I could overhaul my kitchen and downstairs bath in eight.  I got a crew in here,  downloaded all the stuff from the kitchen cabinets to the living room floor, and they began beavering away.  Painting,  tiling, moving a cabinet.  It was big. Installing all new appliances.

My job as straw boss was to keep them happy, up and running and caffeined enough to complete this herculean task.

So what did that mean for me? Trips out for pizza.  Lots of pots of coffee.  Donuts in the morning. A total backsliding week as far as the Silver Cloud went. 

Long about the 5th day,  it actually took us nine days to complete the job,  I began to feel sluggish and sick.  At first I figured it was the long hours, the dust and the disorder.  But then I thought NO.  It was the diet.  It’s been so long since I ate all that high carb processed food,  my body will not tolerate it.

So today,  with the kitchen and downstairs bath looking like an Arc Digest photo shoot,  I am back on the diet and already feeling so much better.

I guess its really true.  You are what you eat.  Damn, I hate that.

Stay on your silver cloud.  You’ll be glad you did.
