Don't eat the apple, wait until it's ripe! October 27, 2005 - 8:33:08

Would forbidden fruit taste as sweet with no context? If I wasn't hungry and taunted, would it still occupy my mind? I just had a huge dinner that made me almost sick, so I had to stop eating. Now I see this fruit, and I'm hungry again. I know that being denied something makes the desire all the greater, and that keeping it on the mind only makes things worse, but I can't stop. All I have to do is be patient, and I'll be able to have all I want. If I wait until the rest of my food is through my system I'll be able to eat even more dessert, and enjoy it more. I said I was going to fast, but somehow I never have the willpower to make that go for any significant amount of time.

Fasting slows your metabolism, and makes you hungry. Not only that, but when you do go ahead and eat, you eat more than you should. You shouldn't eat all the time
(some breaks are definatly necessary), but you also don't need to go that long without eating either.

With delayed gratification it is all the more sweeter when you finally reach it.

Snacking too much will just ruin your appetite when you're ready for your next meal.

Of course, snacking on the foods your less fond of could make the next meal even better...

Oh Kyle, you're so silly. Who... I mean what would I snack on?
