While watching scary and/or gross films or TV shows, I have a hard time eating. Especially sweets, cakes, and “mushy” foods. Not quite sure why though I think it started that one time in 8th or 9th grade when Ultra and I were watching Carrie at her house. It was dark and quiet and we were eating an Entenmann’s fudge cake out of the box. By the time the pig’s blood was pouring down all over poor creepy Carrie the fudgy mush in my mouth made me want to puke.

Tonight D and I watched 30 Days Of Night while having dinner. My strategy was to eat quickly before anything too gory happened. For dinner I had tried out a new recipe which included a home-made quasi-breadbowl. The meal was delicious but by the time I got to the end and only had the sauce-soaked bread left in my bowl, I just couldn’t finish it. Too much blood had been shed and my taste buds were rebelling. (Of course D had no problem eating his dinner and finishing up mine; *obviously this diet tip won’t work for everyone.)

Once I was done eating I could enjoy the movie. The only thing I couldn’t do was have dessert like I normally would. I kept thinking about the Ghirardelli chocolate in the pantry and the ice cream in the freezer. Nope, couldn’t do it.

Now I just have to download every Friday The 13th, Halloween, and Nightmare On Elm Street and I should be in shape by the end of the month.
