Freewrite Day 586 Tart
The photo on my poster is of some Portuguese Egg Tarts in Singapore. I got one when I was there and it was delicious.
Can you eat such a thing while having a healthy diet?
Yes!
I did not eat ten of them, though I wish I had bought two. I can pretty much eat anything I like now that I lost “half my size” eight years ago. I only avoid as many toxins as I can and some foods I am sensitive to. My key food strategies are:
- Eat less crap
- Eat more nutrition
That’s it!
Most of the time that works well, and I love my diet now. I’m eating high fat and protein with lower carbs. I eat lots of colorful and flavorful veggies, especially greens. I drink a lot of healthy drinks and really do not worry about my weight or even weigh myself now.
I can tell when I am a bit puffy and cut things back or when I am too thin (which happens sometimes now!) I eat more for a while.
All of this was unthinkable when I was morbidly obese. I thought a healthy diet would be miserable, but instead I feel fulfilled and grateful every day.
Who knew? We are convinced a healthy diet is “bad” and so we are fat and sick. This is the attitude I fight each day as I try to help others heal too.
So tarts for the win! I will get two in August when I go back to that same location in Singapore again :)

I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. No tricks, just doing a bit better every day. I started on October 10 one year, and did not give up. Four years later, on October 5th, there I was - thin and healthy for the first time in my life. You can do it too!

Eggs, butter and cream in them I hope! yum. And with the right ingredients- good butter good cream and good eggs - they would be loaded with good nutrition. Now I hear maple syrup is preventative for colo-rectal cancer, so throw some of that in too, and those tarts would qualify as a super food to me.

I have never heard of an egg tart and they look delicious. I love fruits and veggies but can't eat too many of them or I will get a colitis attack. Speaking of stomachs, how is yours behaving these days?

I will tell you that after my first pregnancy I have 10 kg over my weight. I did everything to recover my figure, eliminate the soft drinks, mayonnaise, arepas, chocolates. Reject many exits to omer pizza .. And finally recover my figure.
But of course I thought those options would be at my disposal for a saturday of cravings.
I never thought I would regret so much diet. From there came phrase very popular in my country: "The Diet of Maduro".
