Leafy, Green Vegetables

Apparently I need a few more of them in my diet.

Blegh.

If you know me at all, 

you know that I really have very little sense when it comes to healthy nutrition.

I mean, I try to make good dietary choices. 

Like portion control.

And only eating when I'm hungry.

Not just because I'm bored...

(that's still kind of a work in progress.)

And exercising regularly.

(that's still kind of a work in progress too.)

And having a kick ass metabolism.

(I'll admit, that's my favorite...)

I don't eat a lot of salt,

or greasy red meat 

(except for my weekly cheeseburger)

and I drink a ton of water.

I'm not a huuuuuuge junk food junkie.

But I like what I like.

Which usually comes in the form of a carb.

Or ranch dressing.

What I like definitely does not look like 

this.

Remember that lovely doctor's appointment I had last week.

Well, apparently that appointment is just like a gift that keeps on giving.

(A sucky gift that keeps on giving sucky things.)

I got my test results back and apparently my potassium is low.

Which means I need to eat a lot more "bananas and leafy green vegetables".

Really, all this makes me think of is 

"Honey We Shrunk Ourselves"

particularly min 8:00 

when Mitch passes out because of his potassium deficiency. 

I can deal with the bananas. 

They're not my favorite, but I can manage.

The leafy green vegetables, though, might pose a bit of a problem. 

According to this delightful little list here,

I was going to start trying gluten-free recipes

(that didn't even come close to happening).

I guess now I need to start trying leafy green vegetable recipes.

Yuck.

Guess it's time to turn to my old friends,

Jessica Seinfeld, a puree, and the art of deception.

Hugs,
