So, obviously, I can only diet when the Rottenator is at work, because on his days off, he likes to frequent the buffets which I do not enjoy on the whole, but I am powerless to resist any offer of food, especially when it is in abundance.
*sigh*
I'm also unable to resist free food, and there was an ice cream social at work today, so of course I partook.
Did I stop with one scoop of vanilla ice cream? Did I bypass the ice cream in favor of the fresh fruit which was also being offered?
Oh, please, honestly? Don't be silly; of course I made a big ass sundae complete with strawberry, chocolate, and caramel sauce, topped by Butterfinger bits, peanuts and whipped cream.
I am weak. I can't wait to step on the scale tomorrow and see my weight-loss of seven pounds being stripped away in a matter of seconds.
But I didn't dissolve into true madness after counting up my calories on My Fitness Pal and come home and devour pepperoni slices, Tostitos Hint of Lime chips with dill dip, or even an Oatmeal Cream Pie. I was even honest with my 350 calorie surplus and my lack of water intake.
And I stopped eating for the night. I also have not had a cigarette today, so I can officially say this is my first day of not smoking. Yes, I vaped to get my nicotine fix, and although it is not a perfect solution it is certainly better than the alternatives.
Which are lung cancer, emphysema, heart disease, and murder (of loved ones and innocent strangers).
So, I consider today a relative success.
Also, my tulip tree is blooming again, which is a wonderful surprise, because it bloomed once over the spring, then we had a hard freeze, which turned all the beautiful flowers black with a quickness. I didn't expect to see them again until next season, but here is proof that this god forsaken summer hasn't killed all of nature's beauty.
I really wish I had a better camera and a better cell phone, but you get the idea of how pretty this bloom is I hope.
All for now, long day, but tomorrow is casual day at work so I get to dress comfortably, and it's Friday, yay!
