Every night around midnight, I get a hankering to eat.\u00a0 Not just a snack, a full meal.\u00a0 It’s my right as an American to eat five full meals a day.\u00a0 When my cravings come upon me, I am obedient and follow them to the refrigerator.\u00a0 I open the door\u00a0to survey the my food choices.\u00a0 If there isn’t anything interesting in the refrigerator, I go to the pantry.\u00a0 If there isn’t anything interesting in the pantry I\u00a0go back to the refrigerator.\u00a0\u00a0 Eventually I find something,\u00a0turn on the TV, and eat.<\/p>\n
Knowing I have to get up at 5AM\u00a0makes this late\u00a0night eating feel so decadent and good. \u00a0 I’m balancing between the old day and the new one and there is something liberating about quietly eating like a free man in the middle of the night.<\/p>\n
This would all be well and good except for the food hang over I’ll get when I wake up in the morning.\u00a0 I didn’t know why I felt so crappy in the morning, but I consulted other fat and sloppies and they informed me that this is called\u00a0a food hangover.\u00a0 I immediately grasped the concept.\u00a0 I asked them if there was something\u00a0I could do to still eat\u00a0and avoid the\u00a0food hangover.\u00a0 None of them seemed to know, it wasn’t something they had ever thought about before.<\/p>\n
Is this another passage into middle age?\u00a0\u00a0Having to choose eating huge meals at midnight or getting up refreshed in the morning.\u00a0 I used to be able to do both.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
