Couch 114 - Take a Pew

Oh and in answer to the question - "what is a grocery haul", it's just people showing what they bought at the grocery.

Alice in Wonderland is my favorite book, well one of them.

Grocery hauls are clearly something I will never understand. I mean, why? Why? WHY?

*shakes fist at the heavens, or maybe just in the direction of unaluna*

Exactly. I'll never understand either but so un-interestingly fascinating.

I don't understand unboxing videos - ones where they simply take something out of the box after it arrives - and that is it - just unboxing - not using.

It's amazing how many carbs people buy.
And fake food.
And nothing with decent nutritional value.

(not judging at all, I have my fair share - just interesting to me)

It amazes me how much pet food/treats I buy.

That pantry I need to organize.... too many pet treats. I often wonder how they end up in my home.

Both carbohydrates and the additives in fake food are addictive imo.

Cool Whip anyone?

I love grocery shopping! The more money I save, the better.
I try not to buy the prepackaged high carb items, though. I'm on a high protein low carb diet.

I love fake food! That's why I can't buy it. Ha!

The added sugar/crap is addicting I think. When my partner went off of fast food (a while back and after me harping at her about it - she ate it several times a week)- she actually had withdrawal symptoms.

Perimeter shopping if you live in the US

I coulda just made one. I tried to set up my new phone i bought two months ago - fail! But good on me for making it the first thing i did or tried to do after the inspection nightmare was over. Verizon was like, do you have another phone? NO. Do you have a friend? NO. Wel just get in your car and go to the phone store... I DONT HAVE A CAR! Not that i mind my situation, but it just shows you how much people take for granted, and that can end up looking like prejudice if you are unaware / dont care. But they were very nice and reconnected my old phone. And y'all were spared an unboxing video. The reboxing video woulda been funny tho.

I have a metabolic disorder that requires me to eat the majority of my calories from simple carbs and a very low percent of fat caloties. I think.people exaggerate the addictive ness of carbs. People don't think about that nearly all car by foods people love have plenty of fat also and the combo of carbs + fat is what we are hardwired to crave. Think potatoes or bread but no butter, cheese etc. Plain baked tortillas. Rock candy, no chocolate, caramel, cookies, brownies etc. Pasta without olive oil butter or cheese. No chips, crackers, etc. I can eat ( and thrive on) sugary cereal but something like cake with frosting will probably make me sick. People blame the carbs /sugar but its actually the carbs + fat the causes the cravings. Plain carbs are not that crave-worthy.
I guess sugary drinks would be the exception but those also have caffeine and lots of other chemicals, not just sugar

Is it me or is this Couch that was only started 16 hours ago moving really, really fast?

I'm probably the only person who has been told "eat more sugar!' By their doctor.
I need to consume 16 GMs of simple sugars for every 20 min physical exertion I do so if I am ice skating or hiking I need to have candy in my pockets

I'm glad it's moving fast so I can create a new one with a different title

My doctors tell me to eat more salt.

Really, really fast!

I try to stay away from my actual doctors as much as possible. I only go in if I absolutely have to.

My cute puppy was just scratching on my legs. The eyes!!!! The face!!!! So adorable!!!!
