A moment of revelation happened while I was at work today... I was starving and decided that in addition to 4 twizzlers, and 2 caramels I should have a large seedless cucumber. I broke the cucumber in half, washed it and dove in... Everyone looked at me like I was a freak, questioning if I pregnant yet again... (I’m not).Why is it that I can eat an endless amount of candy, chips, espresso beans, and frozen coffees without question; yet when I embrace something healthy it is likened to the irrational cravings of a pregnant woman.

Revelation #2... it is perfectly acceptable to walk into a meeting chewing gum or with a small bag of candy. But could you do the same with a small bag or carrots or celery sticks without turning heads. Maybe I am a lil extreme and the world is not ready to embrace munching on a cucumber whole like an apple, but it is wonderful. Needless to say I have compiled a list of healthy snacks... some of which I hope are accepted in the workplace
Yummy! I think you are right, but it's so important to try to respect and care for the body that God has blessed us with!
ReplyDeleteI am all about eating cucumbers like apples! :) I love your list of healthy snacks!
