So last night, I was very hungry when I got home after 4 hours of classes and just ready to relax and start the weekend. I had leftover quinoa so I threw together a spinach salad and had some quinoa with black beans. I then got in bed and caught up on my guilty pleasure: reality TV. Specifically, the Real Housewives of New Jersey. I get bored easily when I watch TV so I got hungry. I ate some strawberries and Trader Joe's Crunchy Unsalted Peanut Butter. Bad, bad idea! I can never really stick to the serving size and definitely ate way too much. Maybe I just won't buy peanut butter anymore LOL.
This morning I'm feeling bad about my choice so I decided to blog about it. Next time I feel the urge to eat when I'm not hungry, I'll come here and write instead. Today is a new day filled with healthy decisions. This is also a lesson though: just because I am eating unprocessed, doesn't mean I can go crazy. Moderation (even with "good" foods) is key.
Lastly, today is my idol, Kim Kardashian's 31st Birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIMMIE! People know that I'm obsessed with Kim but they don't really understand why. So, I'll explain. For one, Kim is Armenian and although I am Iranian, we share the same family values and many of the traditions are similar. Kim's dad reminds me of my dad, he was very intelligent and supportive of Kim, and clearly played such a central role in her life before he passed away. Also, she is a family-oriented person like myself. I love getting together on Friday nights to go to Long Island for Shabbat dinner with my family; I wish we did that more often. I love how both of our families are crazy, loud, and dysfunctional. We fight hard (particularly Michelle and I) but we love even harder. At the end of the day, family will always be there when everyone else trickles in and out of your life. I also love how Kim promotes a healthy body image, inspiring me to be comfortable with myself. By no means is she considered skinny and yet, she has one of the most desirable bodies in Hollywood. She proves that you can have curves and be confident too. Lastly, I find a little bit of myself in Kim because of her work ethic. I, like Kim, am extremely driven and work hard to achieve whatever goal I have on my mind. People think Kim's dumb...fine. But she does one hell of a job marketing herself and the Kardashian empire. She works a lot harder than people think, she just loves her job so people don't see it. She's always working and even after marrying, proves that she is an independent woman. I could go on for hours, but I just wanted to say: HAPPY BIRTHDAY KIM KARDASHIAN! ENJOY AND MANY MORE! XX
