What’s Eating Me?


On the assumption that you are what you eat, I thought I’d let you know a little about my usual diet.

Since I was a kid I’ve struggled with my weight, and sadly the struggle continues. I have a pretty sedentary job (more about that in another post perhaps) and I work long hours, so exercise has really never become a habit for me. Most of my efforts to control my weight revolve around my eating habits, which is of course only half the equation. However, I figure it’s at least worth doing what I can.


What is an OmniScientist?


First, of course, I have to deal with the name; why is this blog called Omniscientist?

Friends and I started using the OmniScientist term late in high school, when many of us were having trouble deciding whether we wanted to focus more on science subjects or on the arts. I’ve always liked the idea of being able to combine a knowledge of arts with a knowledge of science — in my experience many scientists are capable of doing this, but comparatively few humanities scholars have the same ability. Thus, OmniScientist.
