30-min Smoothie
Today it was hot. I craved Jamba Juice for about half the day... or a smoothie in general. Here Downtown, we don't have a Jamba Juice -- we have a Robek's (which I think is so much better anyways). There just happened to be a nutritional guide/menu on my desk when I came into work this afternoon, so I cracked it open to try and decide what I wanted.I knew I wanted something with yogurt in it, that offered the least amount of calories and the most nutrition. So I looked at the menu. Some of the smoothies that interested me where only available in 24 and 32 oz servings. I debated getting a 24oz serving, just to get the smoothie that I wanted, but no... the extra calories! It was unnecessary since I had already had a sandwich and carrots for lunch to get something that was the caloric equivalent of a meal (~400 cal). Plus, I really can't drink that much of the same thing... except if it's beer. Yeah, I can drink a lot of beer.
I think I spent a total time of about half-an-hour debating, and then I decided. I would head down to Robek's and get myself their Pomegranate Passion.
Instead I went to Carl's Junior and got myself a mint-chip milkshake... that has whipped cream on it. I really wanted ice cream. Oh, Susanne.

i read this article once on something called "intuitive eating." Basically the theory goes that if you crave something, you should have it because your body wants it. some guy claims that he lost like 200 pounds by intuitive eating or whatever... so whenever I want something I probably shouldn't have, I call myself an intuitive eater. I'm doing my body a great service. Bring on the ice cream.
