I Tried, I Really, Really Tried
I only lasted 3 days as a vegetarian. There is just so many ways that I can stir-fry vegetables before it becomes same-o, same-o. I have tofu coming out of my ears. And I have been very cranky the last couple of days. It takes all my will power to not end every sentence in my emails at work with "dumbass". So tonight I had pork spare ribs. Blue-eared pigs or not, I can't stay away from it. I owe it to Sydney and everyone that comes across my path to eat meat. I'm a carnivore, and I can't pretend otherwise. I told a friend of mine at work that and he took 2 steps back. I then had to explain the difference between "carnivore" and "cannibal". I can see how it would be confusing since both words start with "ca" (dumbass).
I was hoping that the vegetarian thing would help me lose weight. I've gained ALOT of weight since I've moved to Shanghai. There is a reason why you haven't seen any pictures of me on this blog. I know what you're thinking, if so much of the food in China is tainted, how can you possibly gain weight? Here's how: pasta, rice, noodles, cheese, bread, Kit Kats (mmmmm....Kit Kats....). And lots of it. It doesn't help that Sydney laughs when I change clothes in front of her. Hi, my name is Jackie and I'm addicted to carbs.
Sydney is continuing to be a vegetarian since she doesn't seem to mind it. She gets her protein from tofu, eggs and beans. I wonder how long it will take before she starts to throw tofu at me.
