it's been about a month since i cut back on sugar, dairy, meat and wheat. i'm crowding out these foods, replacing them with luscious greens, nut milk, juices, quinoa, fruits and veggies. so far, so good.
on wednesday, i photographed this beautiful cupcake and then promptly, without thinking, peeled back the paper and took a bite. the sweetness overwhelmed me. and not in a good way. it seems that my mouth, as the official gatekeeper of all things that nourish my body, is developing a new protocol for what is sweet.
i was not expecting this sudden of a turnaround. and a part of me doesn't fully trust that is indeed a turnaround. but holy whole foods, i'm going to go with it! because i've always dreamed of being that girl who really doesn't really care for sugared up food and who can't get enough of all that feeds her in a true and healthy way.
