Not really sure what a funeral has to do with sudden bingeing on fast food, but after a week of super healthy eating, finding out my stepdad had died suddenly brought on a need for burger king, mcdonalds and the like. Haven't been to BK since I moved cities, so I was surprised to discover that my favourite burger BK chicken has not only noticeably shrunk (with new packaging to disguise the fraud) but at the same time as it jumped up in price. I was disgusted enough to feel the need to text several people to alert them to my new discovery.

After several weeks of urging from my father, i finally consented to read his book, the one I got him for fathers day a couple of years ago (what was I thinking!) Eat right for your blood type. According to Peter D'Adamo the food that is best for your body is in line with whatever genetic inheritance you have, therefore if you respect what your body wants you will naturally be healthy. As an A type, I should be vegetarian. I should live on tofu and vegetables, cut out meat especially red meat (fish allowed), no wheat, no dairy, no potatoes, kumara, tomatoes, oranges, as these all react badly in my system. When I think about it, it explains why I lost 4kgs on my meat free, dairy free, bread free detox.

Living this diet would of course be a lot more difficult than just reading about it. But I bought some tofu at the markets this morning, just to try it out.
