January 1: The First Day Today is the first day of the new me. I vow to keep my resolution this year to become the healthiest me I can be. I will eat more vegetable, exercise more, and eliminate sugar, caffeine, fat, and carbs from my diet. Here’s to the new and improved me!!
January 1: Lunch I felt guilty throwing away the cake from last night’s party. It just feels wrong to throw away perfectly good food. I ate a few bites before throwing it out. I only feel slightly guilty, because there are starving kids in Africa and I ate it for them….or something like that.
January 1: Dinner How the hell do you make spaghetti without rolls? Cutting carbs is a lot harder than I thought.
January 2: Breakfast I had two eggs and sausage. How the heck do you eat eggs by themselves? I drank a little coffee so I’ll just have to catch up on the fruit later. Maybe I’ll drink the orange juice for a snack later.
January 2: Mid-morning How do people go for more than 2 hours without eating? I ate a Snickers bar, but at least I washed it down with orange juice.
January 2: Lunch Did you know that pasta is a carb? I could kill my husband for telling me that. Fine, go ahead and ruin the leftovers. I ended up eating a salad. He then points out the croutons; bacon bits and dressing are not on my diet. He is lucky the croutons, bacon bits and dressing are not on his pants.
January 2: Mid-afternoon I broke into a stash of Girl Scout cookies I had hidden in the pantry. I ate them in the bedroom where my husband could not see me. I am not counting that as a snack, though, because no one knows that I ate them. When I returned to the kitchen later, my husband pointed out there were black spots on my teeth (damn Thin Mints), so now I have to get a dentist appointment because I blamed the black spots on cavities.
January 2: Dinner Screw it. I’ve been good all day. I’m ordering pizza and washing it down with a Coke.
