Getting Hungry Everyday

I’ve decided it’s important to feel hungry every day. When I first got divorced in 2021, I felt hungry pretty much all the time, even after I ate (I had no desire to eat). It actually felt good, being a little hungry all the time.

Then,.as my mentality improved, I began to eat more. Then I was snacking when I wasn’t even hungry. Then I’d wake up in the night and still feel full,.like my body was solid clay or something. It was unpleasant.

Then I started wondering, “when was the last time I actually felt hungry?”

So now, I have a new thing going. I try (loosely) not to eat after 6PM. I pay attention and don’t snack if I’m not hungry. Eating is not a hobby or source of entertainment.

The reason for this post, is because I woke up last night and felt hungry, and I was glad that I felt hungry.

On a side note, last night I decided I would post about being hungry this morning, and I was sure I wouldn’t forget. But I wrote it down. This morning I couldn’t remember what I wanted to post about today. I’ll always tell myself I remember, and I never will unless I write it down. That is somehow related to getting hungry every day

Have Great Day! Stay Hungry!

Good But Bad

My most often used grocery store has discontinued using the plastic bags like in the picture above..they used to charge 5 cents each. Now, if you need a bag, there’s cloth reusable ones that cost 25 cents.

Its good that they stop promoting a source of plastic when plastic litter creates so much trouble in this world.

But my kitchen and bathroom trash cans are designed to re-use these plastic bags with the handles.

So, soon I’ll have to start buying the white kitchen trash bags by the box..The plasttic in them is much more durable and much less biodegradable than the flimsy plastic grocery store bags. Not to mention I’ll need new trash cans.

Plus, literally everything at the grocery store comes wrapped in plastic

Humans need to take action about our plastic waste, but sometimes it seems so ineffective and hopeless.

Too bad we couldn’t have transitioned straight from the paper bags of the past to cloth, and skipped the plastic era.
