Vegetarian Me
I have decided to go back to being a vegetarian, sort of. I was a vegetarian from age 16 to 24. I started eating some meat, mainly fish and chicken, because I began fainting. I had been through two pregnancies and breastfed two babies as a vegetarian and remained healthy. For several reasons, when I was 24 my blood sugar began having “issues,” causing me to faint or nearly faint way more often than anyone ever should. Instead of exploring why this was happening, I chose to add meat to my diet. It worked, but I gained weight. I need to lose this weight to feel healthy again. Sure, some of it is vanity, but mainly I need energy and I feel uncomfortable in my skin. So, I’m going 90% vegetarian; well, more like 70% vegan, 20% lacto-ovo vegetarian, and 10% fish eater. This time I’m going to listen to my body. If my body needs salmon, it needs salmon. With cajun seasonings. And olive oil.

Your husband is in my office being an ass.
Hence, his punishment is is 2 weeks with no physical contact. Unless you would like him to scrub your feet or something. That’s okay. Nothing fun, though.
