Dancing in the Streets
I was making lunch for myself today, as the rest of the family was off doing stuff. Having gone too long since breakfast, I was ravenous.
For lunch, I heated up some home-made low-fat hummos and pasta salad and wrapped it in a burrito. I was carefully doling it out, subconsciously measuring it, when it hit me:
I can have as much as I want. Really. All I want.
So I did.
It was a big, fat, voluptuous looking burrito. Not my usual tiny burrito surrounded by shredded lettuce.
After that, I sat for a bit, drank some water, and realized I was still a little hungry.
So I had another one.
This made me so happy that I was dancing about in the kitchen as I made the second one, “singing” to myself “I can eat all I waa-aant, I can eat all I waa-aant!”
Now I feel full, and satisfied, and just a tad bit amazed that I can really eat all the food I need and not go hungry. And that this is good for me.
