I've gotta get down and dirty serious about this dieting stuff! Yesterday morning at 7am, before we left for work (14 hours in the hot arid sun!), I made a nice breakfast of low carb egg/cheese/veggie burritos to help get us thru until our late lunch. I didn't have much of an appitite, so I hardly ate. By the time we made it back in for "lunch" it was 4:00pm! I was starving! So, guess what I ate? (what didn't I eat?) On the walk home, I ate 2 delicious peaches. Soon as I got home, I ate some homemade chicken stew, a tortilla, a piece of bread with peanut butter and jelly on it, 2 huge tumblers of 1/2 soy milk, 1/2 water (yeah yeah weird I know!) AND THEN My son and I acquired a bout of hysterical silliness and couldn't stop laughing, which lead to us playing with our food! We had a peanut butter and jelly eating contest, straight from the jar! 15 minutes later, we had to get back to work, and both of us had to lean against the building to keep from throwing up! Needless to say, neither of us could even think about eating any kind of dinner! Even today I'm feeling the effects of what we did!
I am still asking myself if it was worth it! Sure, I had a Kodak moment with my beautiful son, but Man! How stupid can I be?!
Well, that's all fun and interesting stuff, but how about my next story! Let's talk about some DIRT, ok? Ya'll want some dirt?!
I have a week to get all hot and sexy and lose these 3 pounds! We will be having hubby's company party here at our house Next Saturday and I have to tell you why I have to make SURE I'm HAWT! My arch enemy will be there! She and I like to pretend we "like" each other, but it's so sickeninly phony! (it's a game to me now!) I met her (Rhonda) when I was dating my husband 15 years ago, during the company party! She and my hubby were great friends at the time. In fact, the year before I met my hubby, he asked her out! She turned him down and told him in so many words that he wasn't her type! (she likes surfer-type bad boys, not good'ol down-home write-mom-about type of guys like him, thank God and LUCKY FOR ME!).
Anyway, not long after he asked her out, WE began dating. Since her friendship was important to him, he excitedly introduced me to her...and Unbeknown to him (my lovely husband is STILL oblivous!), she gave me the up-and-down eye-movement and stared me down, dude!!! She spent that whole day glaring at me, and was so rude to me! I wasn't imagining it because hubby's teenage daughter at the time mentioned it!
4 years later, when we got married, she came to the wedding, (she's his friend), but the damage had already been done! To this day, I'm still scarred from her extremely negative behavior (and here I thought EVERYBODY loved me until then!)
Another funny twist to the story, is that it wasn't long after our marriage, that two things happened; #1; her behavior morphed into what it really is, jealously of me! (pretty cool power for ME to have during the stare-out contests these days of late!) and #2; I hear thru the grapevines that the guy-types she's attracted to, are not attracted to her, leaving her jilted at the bar counters (her favorite place to hang!) one too many times! Actually, during a company banquet at the country club a few years ago, we watched her 'date' refuse to dance with her, and then stroll off with another chick! (that made me feel horrible for her, though...)
How's that for some good Sunday dirt!? LOL
I have 5 days to get my butt down 3 pounds! Ready, set, go!
