  I have become a calorie/fat and carb counter. But not because I believe that I am a skirt-wearing Beluga whale with a genial disposition.
I was scouring the frozen foods section at the supermarket yesterday evening (because the frozen food section is such a bastion of health) and realized that I was deliberating at length on the nutritional value of Bagel Bites and TGI Friday's Chicken Quesadilla Rolls. Consuming either item frequently will eventually lead me down the path to becoming "that other girl" in Wilson Phillips, but by god, if I am going to eat lard, I will eat healthier lard. This scrutinization is borne from the fact that I have an obsessive personality by nature and will beat a concept or activity to death.
I once got it into my head that urlLink Fruit Roll-ups ARE like brightly colored slices of heaven and proceeded to devour 2-3 boxes of 10 in one sitting on multiple occasions. Most people like bananas, so they eat a couple. I like bananas, so I hijack a banana truck, pillage it, then break into the monkey cages at the zoo, point and laugh at their diapers and lice picking and steal their afternoon banana stash.
Hence, the food analysis. "I need to watch the health content in food so my heart doesn't explode, so I will obsessively analyze to pick the better of my crappy options. I choose you, TGI Friday's Low-Fat Pig Grease in Soy Butter. " And friends, though I have always eaten badly, I have never sunk this urlLink low .
