Fruit: The New Atkins

I have successfully abstained from eating matzah since last weekend. I feel this is some sort of record or achievement which deserves special recognition. I also have not missed eating bread at all, which is unexpected. Perhaps that is because I am slowly but surely overdosing on fruit.

Fruit is my bread replacement and the new sugar, the new vice, in my diet. Sure, it is arguably healthy than eating cookies or cake, but pounds of fruit every day can't possible be that good for me. Everything in moderation, after all.

Although there is one sure benefit: I am free of the gastrointestinal problems inherent in eating matzah.
