Thriving On Junk Food?
I’ve felt generally sluggish and almost nauseous nearly every day for the past few weeks. At first, I thought it was computer-related since I sit in front of my monitor for at least 8 hours per day. I thought the main problem was eye-strain, which in turn led to the nauseousness. But even after cutting way back on my computer use, I didn’t feel any better.
Then I got the bright idea to eat lunch at McDonald’s today. I’ve been trying to avoid junk food lately because of holiday weight gain and general health, but today I went all out with a Quarter Pounder with cheese combo meal, fries, and a regular Coke (not diet). And you know what? I’ve felt fantastic all day!
Maybe I’m just the kind of person who needs junk food once in a while. I remember when I was pregnant I had terrible morning sickness for the first four months. In fact, the only things I could keep down were McDonald’s cheeseburgers! So I’m not kidding about the needing junk food angle. Strange, huh?
