Yeah - it's that time again - McFatty Monday. But, I don't wanna talk about it! Can't I plead the 5th? This last week was basically a big middle finger to my weight loss goals.
Let's see...I had a cheeseburger & fries one day, a gyro and fries another, not to mention that I ate the shell that came with my taco salad, and don't let me forget my date night at Daniel's Broiler with my husband. That's right - I ordered the bone-in fillet, which was no short of 18 ounces!!!! I'd love to justify it by saying that I gave several bites to my husband, but honestly - it was an 18 ounce steak. Even giving him bites, there should have been enough to take home in a doggy bag, but nope. Not with this cave man appetite of mine. The waiter even made a joke "would you like a scalpel to finish that off?" You're lucky I wasn't the one doing the tipping, buddy!
and now let's count the desserts - a few (that's right - a few, not just 1) blueberry scones, 2.25 cranberry-orange scones, a piece of $33 chocolate bundt cake (who pays $33 for a bundt!? Apparently I do), a "sweetie pie" that was basically cocao, butter and sugar all on top of a buttery shortbread crust, a rocky mountain chocolate factory chocolate - I have no idea what it was, but it was crunchy & chocolate, so I ate it, approx. 10 chocolate-dipped strawberries, and a vanilla creme cookie. Good grief! I feel like singing "And a partidge in a pear tree!" after all that!
OH.MY.GOD.
What the HECK happened!? This reads like a Biggest Loser contestant food diary, pre-Biggest Loser! Seriously my diet has gone straight down the ole poop drain! Pardon the crudeness, but I need to try & disgust myself in an effort to drastically lower my appetite.
The up side to all this? Somehow, by some great miracle, probably granted to me out of pitty by God himself, there has been no change to the scale. That's right, I'm HAPPY to not have lost weight, because I didn't gain either.
Now I am hitting the internal "reset" button & hopefully if I don't eat like a 300 pound Gila monster, I might actually LOSE weight this coming week - hey! there's a concept!
And due to my porkyness this past week, no before/after photos will be posted. It's too pathetic and uneventful!
