Hi again, It has been a VERY busy time at my house, our son was in town for a couple of weeks - and he popped in and out as 20 year olds do {:o) and while I have done well counting points and drinking my water, I have learned several new things about myself: One thing being, I just can't eat pizza - - I'm not sure what the trouble is, I felt like I had "controlled" myself exquisitely... BUT, as I stepped on the scales the next morning (up a fashionable 4 - 5 lbs. NO I'M NOT KIDDING), I realized that pizza doesn't control itself in my body?!?!?! If you have any good reliable information regarding this issue, send it to me I would relish the opportunity to learn more about what happens after this lucious delicacy is devoured!!! I'm not sure if it's the flour and salt in the dough OR the piles and piles of cheese that could constipate a COW?!?!?!?!? ANYWHO..... within my points or not.... I've come to the conclusion that pizza, along with DONUTS, is a "NO GO" for Charlotte - - Now I'm sure your saying "Why no donuts, Charlotte?" Well, while some people believe that "nobody can eat just one" Lay's potatoe chip - - FOR ME, it's donuts - - AND not any "specific brand" donut.... anything that is round, doughy, & has tons of sugar on it, in it, around it... as long as it starts with "DOE" and ends with "NUT", I am incapable of devouring enough of the delicate little "dough rings" to ever satisfy myself...... I even imagine that if I had a mountain of donuts in front of me, I would never fill up.... as a matter of fact, my guts could explode, and I imagine that I would NEVER ever realize it until after it was all over - -
they are just like eating air to me, I don't ever feel full, satisfied,
or nourished - EVER.... when my choice of food is donuts..... It must be due to the fact that there are no vitamins OR protein involved.....
Hmmm OKAY, point well taken, enough about the "donut/pizza" issue!!!
We went out to eat Mexican food tonight, and I had a really great Lime Chicken Salad. It was light & tangy, and yet Mexicany all rolled up in one - - AND it was healthy!!! I'm not too sure what all was in the dressing, but it was very good, and light tasting, not heavy or oily........ Interesting!!
I'm wondering now if I might be able to duplicate it at home hmmmm
(mental note: search on web for lime mexican salad dressing OR fake food allergy and ask for ingredients at favorite mexican restaurant!!! -
Plan B sounds like a winner!!!)
Anyway, I joined a great Email support group on the web, they've been very encouraging, and have had some really GREAT ideas!!! I would highly recommend it...... especially if you need the contact with others who are doing the exact same thing that you are doing, and you don't have anyone close in proximity to use as a sounding board!!
Well, I guess, for now, I'll go, I need to tackle one more glass of water before it gets too late..... and my eyes are getting "blinky" so I will retire shortly......... and that's probably enough for today, there will be more mental spewing as we go, but for today........
"At'll do, pig.... At'll do!!" |
