Eats Well With Others: Recipe: Sweet Potato Black Bean Chili...Eat.Live.Be. The honest to butternut squash truth (can you think of a better vegetable to swear on? Because I can’t.) about my history with exercise is that I woke up one morning in college and decided to go to the gym. I kind of wish this weren’t true, but I did it because of a boy. I had been dating someone and he just randomly stopped returning my calls err umm…AIM messages. I’m sure I spent a few days crying and mulling over the reasons why he decided on that specific day at that specific time to jump ship. And came to the conclusion that, whatever his sordid reasoning (though I later found out he was struggling with a major depressive episode and that it really had nothing to do with me), I never wanted to feel like a guy didn’t like me because of the way I looked.

I never again wanted to feel like my weight was an issue. So to the gym I went. Ever and anon. And it’s not that I love it. But that feeling after I have done it? Running, for me, is different though. And it’s not that it’s easy. Homemade Chocolate Cake. Peanut Butter Fudge.
