just bout haffweigh

Well lads, as we approach the halfway mark, I have a story to share. We went to Dallas yesterday for t'wifes appt. We stopped by our friends andy and jenny's house and went to dinner. This was quite possibly the hardest task I have faced to date. The restaurant was a place called Sweet Tomatoes. It was a salad bar the size of Rhode Island. Chicken Tarragon, Broccoli salad, chicken salad, spinach, beets, jicama, bread and butter pickles, carrots, feta, blue cheese, spiral noodles, the list goes on and on... I sat there with my diet dr pepper. arghh... I want a two handed bastard sword to carry around to stab people with when they say "Would you like a bite?" Yes I would just second... **STAB** thank you

Well to date, according to the Wii, I have lost 5 lbs. I started at 186, and this afternoon I weighed 181. But the scale at work last week said that I was at 185. Thats 9 lbs. I'm going to weigh again tonight and see what the scale at work says. I need to do measurements again to see if my body has shrinked to the size of my calves! haha

Resist the cravings lads. We wil finish this.

Yeah, that's rough. Thanks for hanging in there, though. i just walked in and grabbed the junk mail, and there was an advert for pizza and lasagna, and i thought out loud to myself that i'm bloody tired of not eating pizza. i just really like the stuff. Funny how long a month can seem when you're not eating food. But i'm certain it's building character.

yeah. Meg called in pizza takeout yesterday and asked me to pick it up on my way home from work. A bit cruel. I drove home with my head hanging out the window. Pretty much chucked em in the door went out to mow the lawn while they consumed thier cheesy goodness. I too miss food.
