Day Twelve

Morning as broken and the rain has passed over us. The winds have died down as well. Yesterday was hellacious (well, by our standards anyway).

This morning I had a bowl of cereal. I'm stopping at Raley's after work tonight to stock up again. I have not been losing weight but I expect I'll see something just drop all at once. The big thing I've noticed is that my body hangs on to carbs like white clings to rice. Yesterday wasn't so much about too many carbs as it was about not enough veggies and greens which is why it is essential that I shop tonight.

More later.

Lunch . . .

. . . today was a Chipotle's again. Got their yummy salad with beef, bit of cheese and pico de gallo. Drizzled a bit of sour creme on the top and was set. Oh, and a diet coke. The most interesting part of lunch was when I spent ten minutes staring at this woman on and off who was yapping away on her cell like she was in her office. Hello, lady. You're at lunch and so are other people. Turn the damn phone off. I totally failed to get her attention. She was oblivious.

Anyway - she was also with someone and she did not speak to him at all. I had 15 minutes before I had to leave and I couldn't stand it. So - I packed up and as I left I walked up to their table, ignored her and told the man to please "tell the nice lady that this isn't her office and she is being very disruptive". Then I turned around and walked out. I felt very empowered. We don't have to put up with other people's thoughtless behavior.

Next stop - Raley's

LOL Yeah, I started not to add that extra patty but we have to be truthful and I am always but I almost didn't tell about the extra patty! I usually have just one hamburger and the patty but going all day with just a piece of toast, a small bowl of chili I was hungry!!! I think I'll have to eat small things throughout the day which I never do, even if it's a yogurt or a carrot....I think that is my problem too, going all afternoon with nothing and then supper comes and watch out! I just got back from helping a friend take another friend home from the hospital and she wanted to stop for an ice cream afterwards(I have an ice cream shop at the bottom of my hill)but I said NO! hehe I'll go see what I can find...not much because I'm having Italian sausage hoagies tonight! Jer does all the grocery shopping, it looks like I'm going to have to go so as to get more veggies!!!and fruit!!
