Meals 24 and 25: Am I really still doing this?

Yes... I really am still doing this. Right now, there are only three meals I find remotely edible: barley vegetable, western noodle and potato bakon. The rest I'd just like to forget about. Today I ate barley vegetable. I've worked out a system where I just eat 2.5 servings for a meal. That is still only 200-400 calories, so I of course eat other things. After each meal I must brush my teeth. The reason being because some of the left over soup package mix sticks to my teeth and leaves a very gritty feeling. Imagine eating a sandcastle for dinner and that's roughly how it feels for my poor teeth after any of these meals. I suppose I didn't really notice that effect the first few times since I mixed rice in with the emergency rations.

I also went grocery shopping today and decided to look at the nutritional content of some burritos I used to eat: 300 calories per burrito. I remember I would eat 4 of those for a meal plus sour cream. I really want to appologize to my body for all the crap I made it process. No wonder my appendix ruptured last fall. It was tired of all the abuse.

  1. If you aren't dead or in the hospital, I hope you are doing well. If the end of the world has fallen upon you, thank God you have that bucket for survival!!!
