• i have these pukey-feeling, pale-faced days. i hate them. and, after some observation. i realized that they happen on days after i have eaten lots of food. that’s why i try to stick to 1 cup of food per sitting. but, i work out and 1 cup of food per sitting just isn’t enough. i feel like i’m starving. but, if i eat more than that i get the pukey, pale-face and if unlucky even cold sores in my mouth. i think it’s because i have a really weak digestive system. so, i thought and thought what i can do to eat more. and, i figured it out.

  i am not chewing my food enough. sometimes i take 2-3 bites and just swallow it. when you chew your food more than that, it loses it’s original taste and feel nasty in the mouth. but, i can’t be greedy about taste anymore. i want to eat. so, i decided to chew my food more. growing up my parents always told me to chew more, but i ignored their advice. also, another family used to tell me to count the number of times i eat my food and chew until you chew food 100 times. that get’s tedious after a while.

  the solution: just chew until the food becomes totally liquified like water. that leaves very little work for your digestive system. it’s like swallowing a smoothie. hopefully this works, logically it should help me be healthier. also, i’ve decided to spit out any food that i determine to non-liquefiable. if it can’t be broken down by my teeth, imagine how much work my stomach has to do to digest it.

  sorry for the graphic post, i am hoping it has educational benefit, so worth it.
