The Wonderful life of Dieting

A Beautiful Friday night, the first day in 2 weeks that it had not rained. We (Nicolette & I ) decided to go to the much anticipated car show. Because of Karate and bad weather its been so long since we have been.

At the car show I got a lot of complements on my recent weight loss, so that made me feel great. On the other hand, Nana, myself and Nicolette went to Lorenzo's Pizzeria for dinner. I, thinking that I could handle myself (still wasn't eating solid food) with the ever so enticing aroma of one of my favorite things PIZZA! Did you hear me, I said Pizza. With this being said, I have attached a photo of myself at Lorenzo's.


I must say, that although I would have sold my soul to the man with the horns and pitch fork (aka the Devil himself) if given the chance but luckily chance was on my side.
Common Excuses for Breaking your diet

But the doughnut was calling my name.

But it was my birthday, so I had to eat the whole cake.

I had to get the bitter taste out of my mouth from eating the so-called dish, so I had an ice cream.

If you eat something and no one sees you eat it, it has no calories.

If you drink a diet soda with a candy bar, the calories in the candy bar are canceled out by the diet soda.

If you fatten up everyone else around you, then you look thinner.

Cookie pieces contain no fat -- the process of breaking causes fat leakage.

Things licked off knives and spoons have no calories if you are in the process of preparing something. Examples are peanut butter on a knife making a sandwich and ice cream on a spoon making a sundae.

Only eat things that have been broken into pieces; that way, all the calories fall out.

Chocolate is a vegetable. How, you ask? Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS. Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.

Bearly survived Alaska

My folks are back from Alaska, and had a great time. Now they are planning the new trip/adventure to the Panama Canal. They don't leave until April, and I fear that it will take the Nana that long to get ready for it.

School is back in session today, after only attending one day last week. Hopefully all goes well, thus far it has so we are keeping our fingers crossed.

Nothing else all that exciting to write about. Its been kinda quiet, ohhh I haven't had coffee in something like 25 days, I also have lost about 22 lbs. (No, not from the coffee). As you know I have (again) stopped eating meat. I think its been like a year and a half., but not sure. I have been eating mostly organic and just trying real hard to fix my ridiculous stomach, so that maybe, just maybe one day I can go back to eating some of my favorite foods.

Short list of things that I would love to eat:

POP CORN
Pistachios
Tomatoes with the seeds
Cucumbers with the seeds
Cashews
strawberries
Kiwi's

I think that's enough, it's making me hungry. At the present time, I am not eating much of anything to do my "master cleanse" to get my stomach in shape. I will let you know the final outcome, when it happens!!
