different names for the same thing
Tom is officially out of town and took the rest of my bloat with him.
Yesterday, we were at target and rob bought a bag of Lindor Truffles. Which I love. A lot. And they are so bad for you. SO bad. We were watching Tivo’d Dexter last night, finally finishing the season, and the open bag was just sitting there on the coffee table. I chose to use 2 points for a ww ice cream bar instead. But there they sat, taunting me. I took one out of the bag and set it in front of me on the coffee table, determined to win the battle AND the war. 2 hours later, there it remained on the table. I had won. Don’t get me wrong. I had an imaginary sequence of me slowly unwrapping it, biting into it, letting the smooth chocolate cover my tongue, and it would all be over in a matter of seconds. And I would have enjoyed it. But I left it alone. Teh victory, it iz mine!
I drew up a menu for this week. Tuesday, DH and I are going to the Texas Bowl game and there is a tailgate party happening. I’m sure I could find something remotely healthy to bring. veggies and fat free dip, perhaps. Wednesday is new years eve and there is always food. Likely culprits: baked chicken wings, chips and dip, various sweets. Again, maybe bring along some veggies and dip.
Tonight I’m planning on making some pork chops and some broccoli. Yummy.
DS took a tumble so I must cut this entry short and go play mommy. Daddy is good for playtime but when it comes to consoling, mommy is best.
Okay.
Today:
final weigh in: 183.0 lbs (woohoo!)
lunch: Ham Sandwich with one serving Ruffles Lite Potato chips.
dinner: 4 oz pork chop, one serving mashed potatos, 2 servings broccoli, one whole wheat dinner roll
snack: 100 cal pack of popcorn, mug of sugar free hot chocolate.
I’ve been peeing like seabiscuit today. TOM really IS out of town!

I SO love the battle and war you placed directly in front of you. this is gonna stick in my mind next time something is bugging me like that. It’s funny too that I came across this and read this. I have seen your name on blog comments and have seen your updated blog but for some reason haven’t come by to check you out. I am glad I did! Anyways, funny thing is, today I went to McDonald’s so the kids could play in the playland and I was determined to not eat a single bite of their food! In my purse, packed 3 california cuties, one banana, and some pretzels! I ate everything but the banana. Out of the dozen times I handled their food, I was extremely tempted 2-3 times to take a bite and I resisted. WHOOOO HOOOOOO! it’s totally awesome when we make these little victories… over such BIG battles. I think the more we do it, the smaller the battle will seem.
[...] Leighishs‘ battle with a Lindor Truffle is funny. (She won the war.) That brings me to my own little battle I had yesterday: I went to McDonald’s so the kids could play in the playland and I was determined to not eat a single bite of their food!
