TAN #64 - A Case of Temporary InTANity (Page 50)

Who knows?  No one did that to me.

Where's all the other men folk?  It's a regular bajingo-fest in here....

However, that's how it is 90% of the time I go out too...  It's me, the wife, and her friends most of the time.  My friends?  Lame.

Hey, if my sister doesn't want me as her maid of honor, I wouldn't be offended, or surprised. I imagine she'd rather have one of her friends do it.

Someone put Winchell's donuts out.

I'm having a crisis on what to do.

There were cookies put out shortly after the hot chocolate. I was bad and ate one I must swim AND run tonight.

HTFU Frances.... 

Great, another skirt is here....

hurry and get one before they are gone!

D.P.

hahahahahaha

i told my mom that if monica didn't make me maid of honor i wouldn't go to her wedding.  that was a little childish maybe.  but irrelevant cause i am so i'll go

But here's my question.  I know NOT eating the donut is the right thing to do.  But why does doing the 'right' thing always have to suck?  Why do I have to deny SO MUCH stuff?  It seems like dieting is just a constant state of saying 'no' and denial...  I hate it.

It's not like someone is telling me I have to deny myself carrots.  THAT would be easy...

Oh, I'm sure she'll have me in the bridal party. But I honestly wouldn't expect her to choose me as her maid of honor. We get along, but she's never really liked me all that much, so if she'd rather have a friend, then that's fine. Her good high school friend is in the area and she was a bridesmaid in her wedding, so if she picks her, that's cool. Plus, I might not even be local if/when she gets married. She could move, I could move, who knows.

I know. I hate "denying" myself food or exhibiting controlling behavior, but if I want to get down to where I want to be, I'm going to have to deny myself a lot of stuff. Which kinda sucks.

there are SO many good kinds too.  Jelly filled, cream filled, chocolate covered, etc... I'm going to chain myself to the desk...

OR, I might go talk to someone who has the Bodybugg and see what they think of it.

if y'all had a better attitude about it, it would be a lot easier.

food is fuel, and that is it.

you are denying yourself lard, simple sugars, crap that does nothing for your body.

you are giving yourself longer lives, better quality of life, hotter bod.

if you look at it negatively, its going to be hard.

look at it POSITIVELY.

See, but I also see cooking as an art form, which takes some of the "utility" out of it. So then it's hard for me to just eat plain chicken, plain rice and green beans every single day for every meal for 4 months. I'd go crazy. I can cut out the junk, I don't buy junk food, the only time I see it is in the office. That's not the problem. But to eat tasteless, flavorless unexciting food SUCKS. No one ever got to looking how you look by even eating any of the stuff of my delicious Cooking Light cookbook.

I like it!!! That deserves a {{{MELON PRESS.}}}

Thanks for the outlook, especially as I have given up my beloved Pop Tarts and am trying to eat better myself.

i eat tons of delicious food.  i don't eat anything tasteless or flavorless.  people see my lunches and are jealous.  even when dieting.  check out the pump cookbook.  delicious healthful cooking.  believe me, cooking is art to me as well.

A true art in cooking is to be able to make sumptuous yet healthy meals.

thought about it...

I walked by again, and some of my faves are gone.  I figure if I wait long enough, the decision will be made for me.

{{{lemon press}}}

every time you eat fruit instead of a poptart, an angel gets its wings.  or something like that.

A Woman-on-Woman MELON PRESS!!!

I'm OUT!!!  *Slaps down $50*
