My Food Wanton-ness

FAILURE.....the last couple days have been Hell for my diet for one reason or another.

A Sleep & Stroke Teleconference sponsored by Bristol-Meyers Squibb who generously provided sandwiches stacked waist high, baked chips and soft cookies in order to enhance my weight gain and thereby guarantee that I will be needing their products in the future. Being the good guest as I was taught, you must try one of everything. I complied, by eating a 3inch Sandwhich with veggies and turkey, only a few chips, and 1 small cookie. =(

My lovely step-mom came to town from Bend, our customary visit to Chevy’s for drinks and hors d’oeuvres ensued. She imbibed freely of the beautifully decorated “froo-froo” drinks. While I consummed the boring Rum & diet coke(4 of them,I think). And my long lost friend, El Machino, was ready to provide me with an unlimited supply of my beloved, warm flour tortillas. When a friend makes you food you must partake. I had 3 of his warm embraces, along with my chicken fajita salad. =(

At work we were celebrating our Houskeepers, birth. I was tasked with providing the cake, how cruel can one be? After my morning workout I felt sufficiently ready to purchase a cake without the worry of falling prey to its succulent wiles. I popped into Safeway, found a great chocolate mousse cake. As I turned to leave this lusciously moist-looking, heart-shaped, siren of a white cake was beckoning me. Taunting me with its fresh, white-chocolate layer, and glistening pink ribbon. How naughtily sensual it was as I devoured each morsel, deliciously tilting my head back as the shivers of satisfaction overwhelmed my taste buds.
Here I sit, ashamed of my inability to ," Just say no!" and the insatiable desire I have for more.
Especially since I normally hate cake, I hate frosting, .....WHY I ASK.....Could it be.....my hormones....????? PLEASE.....

  1. .. that happens. but its okay. next time try smaller portions - or half of what you would normally serve yourself. And another thing that works... drink a glass of water before helping yourself.
