Carb Free Chicken Soup


Eeewwwww. I don't feel well. I hate being unwell. I haven't been unwell in over a year. I have a cold and I'm unhappy. My running is at a standstill until I'm feeling better. Without the running I feel that I have the proportions of a hippopotamus. I even caught myself going sideways through a door this morning. Not ideal for my fragile self esteem and body dismorphic syndrome. What makes it worse is that when I'm unwell I crave rubbish food. Comforting food, warm food, lots of food. This is a super bad development in light of my eating ethics. Ethics = eat as little as possible, eat only foods that have negative calories and are carbohydrate free. I have images flying through my snuffled up mind of mashed potato and gravy, chicken and corn soup, a cheese and marmite panini, pizza, hot chips drowned in gravy. These are all foods I would never entertain eating in my regular, every day life.

Unwell wardrobe summary: pink panelled stilettos, black hipster trousers, white man style shirt, red Alannah Hill scarf, black diamante trimmed Dior glasses, silver fendi watch, white gold & diamond 'R' pendant, dinosaur designs silver star ring. Make-up: base, mascara, chantecaille lipstick (mostly worn off by now).

What makes me feel even worse about being unwell is how shabby I look! I'm not fit for public viewing. Ideally I would like to be wrapped up in my lovely duvet in my lovely bed with my 8 pillows propping me up and writing in my journal between naps. Meanwhile, I'm at my desk trying to finish off the Director Promotions Committee notes and figuring out what to eat for lunch without carb and calorie overloading. Oh, the intricate dilemmas of my life!!!
