EGullet (a food-lovers website) hosts a different "food blog" each week from members. And this week, it's me.

If my posting here is erratic, it's because for the next 7 days, I have to document (in photos and/or words) for EVERYTHING I eat. . .talk about being accountable!

For anyone who wants to keep up with it, the link is:

This won't be a perfectly "on" week as far as eating goes, and I'm willing to accept that. The blog is a chance to show off what I love, what I love to make, and what I love to do. I won't go overboard, and my portions at non-fun meals will be pretty restrictive, but again, it's a price I'm willing to pay.

I'm like you, Cate. . .posting & detailing everything makes me nervous. . .I'm afraid I'll forget something, or have an imperfect day, and in my mind, if that imperfect day is posted & held up to the world, chances are good I'll just crawl in a hole and give myself the "why bother?" speech.

So I'm better when I just mentally plan, and allow myself to deviate when necessary Smiler

I just went to the site. I love the photos. Your writing is great; you give lots of detail that makes me want to know more about the Cuban restaurant, the smoker, food shops and more. Thanks for sharing!

D,
That is really neat. I will check you out over there!

For me, writing/posting everything I eat helps me be accountable and aware of my food, my choices and my goals. It is one of my best tools.

Boy, doing that would drive me truly bonkers.

I don't know how you ladies do it. Honestly.

Journaling/posting what I eat makes me more obsessive, and drives me to binging.

That being said, if it helps your journey, then more power to you.

Color me impressed.

That's really cool Denise. I'll have to check it out : )



Out of our beliefs are born deeds; out of our deeds we form habits; out of our habits grows our character; and on our character we build our destiny.
