Dear In-N-Out Burger,<\/em><\/p>\n We\u2019ve been seeing a lot of each other lately \u2013 and I\u2019ll be the first to admit it\u2019s been fun. You make the only quality fast food out there, and it is damn delicious. I\u2019ve been really busy this month and you were always there for me, ready to quickly pass a box of deliciousness through my car window for $5.<\/em><\/p>\n We had a good thing going, but I don\u2019t think we should see each other anymore.<\/em><\/p>\n It\u2019s not you, it\u2019s me. I\u2026 need some time alone.<\/em><\/p>\n Time without your buns stacked high with the works, your perfectly crisped fries, your creamy vanilla milkshakes.<\/em><\/p>\n I hope we can be friends one day. Take care.<\/em><\/p>\n xoxo,<\/em><\/p>\n Brittany<\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Boy, that was tough. But my eating and (lack of) exercise habits have been even tougher on my body lately.<\/p>\n You know that final scene in Nigella Lawson\u2019s show where she saunters over to the fridge late at night to nibble on whatever she made earlier that day? (Love that, by the way. Love her.) Well that\u2019s been me. All. The. Time.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n My new favorite snack these days? Pepperoni. Pepper-freakin-oni. Seriously? Nearly every time I open the fridge for a somewhat legitimate purpose, I have to grab some pepperoni too. I mean, it\u2019s there<\/em>.<\/p>\n That post last week where I mentioned I was eating nachos in bed at 10pm? Not a joke.<\/p>\n What the hell happened? I could\u2019ve sworn I lived by the \u201ceverything in moderation\u201d rule, but somewhere along the line it went from that to \u201ceverything in moderation, including moderation,\u201d (which I think is still ok) to\u2026 everything all the time.<\/p>\n I\u2019m sure I could come up with a whole crapwagon of reasons for this change, but who cares why it happened. The point is my body is not feeling like it should these days and I need to get it back on track.<\/p>\n I don\u2019t know that I buy in to the whole \u201ccleanse\u201d thing with the juices and the not eating any real food, but here\u2019s my plan for the next 2 weeks (until Valentine\u2019s Day! That worked out nicely!):<\/p>\n 1. No In-N-Out!<\/p>\n 2. No alcohol.<\/p>\n 3. Way more fruit and vegetables.<\/p>\n 4. Only low fat, healthy meals. No sugar\/fat laden desserts. Just more fruit.<\/p>\n 5. EXERCISE. It\u2019s been a while so I\u2019m starting small. At least 15 minutes, every day. I can do that.<\/p>\n On one hand, the timing of this sucks because I have to watch myself with the Superbowl food\/drink. On the other hand, our fridge is near empty at the moment, so as long as I only fill it with healthy things I should be good! And having Valentine\u2019s Day be the day I get to indulge again is pretty awesome.<\/p>\n I\u2019m looking forward to feeling refreshed and energized.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n OH! PS \u2013 If you\u2019ve noticed little improvements and changes at Kitchenette over the past few weeks, those have all been thanks to my awesome hubby\/intrawebs-magician, Josh. The most recent and exciting update is that there is a real, working recipes page now!! Yay!
