I don't know if I have ever posted any of my self made meals on my blog till date, but I doubt that, because I am not a very good cooker/chef. I only cook a handful of recipes and they're the most common ones you can imagine. Moreover I rarely cook meat... I am not a vegetarian, although I've been one for about five years, but I don't cook meat. Period.
I don't eat french fries that often either, but sometimes I have to let the beast out, and fry everything. Hence I cooked this evening french fries with fried mushrooms and peppers. I actually haven't cooked the peppers, as they're actually left by my mother before she left to Austria but I felt mentioning them as well. Sometimes it's great living in parents house with some valuable leftovers. Or it's just me being frugal...
I had a fucked up day today to be honest, and that's probably why this messy dinner that has tons of cholesterol in it and almost no vitamin or hardcore nutrient. I was quite anxious, depressed, felt stuck and really imprisoned and although I could get out for a walk there isn't actually anyone to socialize with and that sucks big times. This virus is taking out some of the most ugly demons out of myself.
I did had some vitamins that will meet the fried everything dinner inside my stomach and these come from a grapefruit juice. I was actually intending to have a beer but I said no, and instead squeezed a grapefruit, added some water, and there you go. Vitamins in a glass, with no sugar at all. Busted... I did had my sugar treats as well in terms of some white chocolate so there was some sugar after all.
But tomorrow I'll be a good boy. Yes sir, tomorrow I will fast and it's actually the second Sunday that I water fast for this month. The previous one was spent the same way with 24 hours of water fasting and some nap to make it tastier. I am not religious and I don't fast for such purposes, but I noticed the benefits of such a diet, if I can call it this way, and thought I should give it a try once in a while.
I don't know for how long will I go with it, but I assume as long as this lock down will take I will have a day a week of non eating diet. I am 100% that it is one of the best detox practices that I can get, and by detoxification I am referring to the mind as well, and not just my gut. I don't know about you but mine is like the DPF on a diesel car that was driven for way too long in the city.
I need more calm, more appreciation for the small things that life has to offer, definitely more patience and will power to improve myself, as there is really tons of room for all of them. Hence, Sunday I will not eat till 20:00 o'clock. That's exactly 24 hours of a break for my digestive system but, I will instead give it enough water, as I consider it highly important.
That doesn't mean though that tomorrow evening I will repeat the dinner I just had, because I would be a fool to do that. Instead, I will break the fast with some fruits and after that some toast I guess. Will see.
What I really feel like fasting for, like really really, is this damn laptop and smartphone. Staying inside for that much time I already developed some eye irritation from that much screen watching. I don't know with what should I replace it.., but I feel the need. The first on the list might be cleaning the windows... not Microsoft Windows, although I would replace it with Linux, if I'd knew how and it would be easy to use, but the house windows is what I plan on cleaning asap.
Anyway, hope you had a great Saturday and wish you an even better Sunday, and hang on. Take care of yourself, protect yourself from the virus, but don't believe all the bullshit the media is telling about it. It's difficult times that we're living and nothing seems to be the same anymore, while we're having some important tests to take. Be true to yourself and your loved ones and be free!
Thanks for attention,
Adrian
