I spoke to Dwaine briefly on the drive home earlier. He said he’d taken a peek at this blog earlier in the week and saw all the photos posted from Mr. W’s niece’s wedding this past weekend. He said he wanted to comment but didn’t want readers who don’t know who he is to me to take it the “wrong way,” but that I looked great in that dress in all the photos I’m in, and that he could tell I’ve been working out and he wanted to give me props for being in the current shape that I’m in. I thanked him heartily, said that my regular readers know who he is to me because I talk about him fairly regularly and reminded him that he’d commented before. He’s even had comment rapport with my regular readers. So he went online and commented after we hung up. Cuz he’s cool and generous like that.
I was too guilty and sheepish to tell him that I’ve only been to the gym once this week, and that just in the past 2 days alone, my food intake consisted of:
Wed lunch, Employee Appreciation Day free food:
3 slices of Costco pizza (cheese; pepperoni; everything)
piece of cake
Wed dinner at Claim Jumper:
half a rotisserie chicken
steamed veggies
basmati rice (which sounds okay, until you get to my dessert)
3 flavors of creme brulee (lemon amaretto; green tea & ginger; chocolate mocha)
Today at work:
rehydrated vegetable soup from a packet
2 handfuls of minty rice M&Ms
giant chocolate muffin
another piece of Costco cake (brought up by my courtroom assistant from a coworker’s housewarming luncheon today)
a bite of donut
like 8 lardful spring onion crackers
Dwaine didn’t know it, but he’s guilted me into going to the gym tonight, as soon as the evening crowd dies down.
I’ve been slacking too! I just ate the top portion of a maple donut. EVer since I heard that I could lose or gain A LOT of weight after surgery, I got off my diet and have been slacking… and enjoying too much ice cream. LOL! I’m hitting the gym @ lunch today though
three slices of costco pizza? that’s nearly half a pizza! i’m impressed. i can eat about half a costco pizza at a time, but that’s about my limit.
i ate a whole frozen pizza for dinner last night. those frozen things are so small compared to normal pizzas.
busykitty – so you’re gambling on that you’ll lose a lot of weight after surgery? I don’t see why your surgery would affect your weight, tho, cuz they said you’d be immediately ambulatory. So I’m sure you’ll be fine. Ice cream sounds GOOD, tho… It’s freaking 100 degrees outside when I was driving home!
wilco – I had 2 small slices at lunch, and 1 in the afternoon. They’re slimmer slices than when you buy individual slices at Costco. I wonder if my bosses told them to cut them smaller to get more slices out of the box. Hmm.
HEY, I wanna picture for my icon! How do I get one like yours?
