less is more

So I noticed today that I'm eating less. I had a bunless hotdog and a plum for lunch. I really want some soda right now though.... I'm not as brave as Meghen... I could never give up soda. I drink Diet Pepsi like Mom drinks coffee.... by the gallon. Not really that would be pretty much horrific but I do drink a lot. You could probably say it's my only vice... except sandwiches but I can't have those this month... the have bread. :( I miss my sandwiches. Maybe I'll entitle my next crappy poem "Ode to Sandwiches" I think it has promiss. :D Well I'm kinda tired and Mom's new keyboard is frustrating me with it's ultra-stiff spacebar... So goodnight all!

frustrated

So yesterday I got on the scale and since september started I've lost 4.2 pounds. So thats good. I felt really good yesterday... I had a hot dog with no bun at lunch. I know I didn't post yesterday and I'm sorry. I know everyone's extremely disapointed that I didn't post.

Anyway so today I battled with donuts! I kept walking by them at work and they just kept calling "Caitlin.... Caitlin.... just one bite of our sugary fried goodness won't hurt anything" of course I knew one bite wouldn't be the end of it. I'd take one bite and then go Hoover style on it. Anyway the donuts and I danced the dance of temptation and I went in swingin'.... and I won. I am victorious over the sugary fried goodness. I laugh at you donuts! HA!!!

wall paper, spackling, and paint

I spent the day working on the upstairs bathroom. Removing wall paper, Spackling, and painting the walls. We're going to have tile installed too.

Anyway the whole food thing is going well. Mom discovered these pepper and cheese brats that are so good... as long as you don't eat them with bun you're fine. I'm still really missing my french fries though.

I'm really tired (I can barely see the screen) and I have to go to the bathroom... so goodnight!

Day 6: ode to french fries

Don't worry I'm not writing anymore bad poetry. I just really miss my french fries.

So I did well today. still haven't broken so that's good. I have discovered the joys of sugar free dilly bars from DQ however. The sunny spot in the cloudy day that has become september.

I'm really tired and I'm helping redo the upstairs bathroom tomorrow so I think I'm turning in for the night. Sorry this is so late today.

Day 5: saturday

I really don't know what to write about... Whenever I write for fun it's always something spur of the moment and random, and that's the stuff that turns out good. I guess I'm feeling like writing about my eating habits is completely lame and not so entertaining... I shall attempt to make it so.

Oh french fries how I miss you,
You're salty and crunchy too.

And choclate with you're taste so sweet,
To reject you is too large a feat.

For me it's only carrots,
Cheese and berries too.

Healthy things with no taste at all,
but all other things have a Siren call.

Dangerous and deadly,
grease and sugar must fall.

Reject them and ignore them,
they betray you at every turn.


hmmmmm.... EPIC FAIL! Before you ask... no I'm not smoking anything! I felt like I was doing okay for a while there but then went south. I guess I'm just not that good with food poetry.

anyway September and Sustenance is going splendedly. haven't broken yet so that's good. I think I'm going to turn in before I decide to subject anyone else to bad poetry... i hope you all get a good laugh out of it.

half my diet

Ok so I know it's past midnight but it's still nighttime so this counts. Meghen even said so a few days ago.

So today I realized that half of my normal diet was french fries... I think I'm having some withdrawal issues. I was running late so I didn't eat breakfast. I had pretty much the same thing for lunch that I've had for the past three days. I went to a football game and bought a hot dog and had my Dad eat the bun. Then I went to IHOP after the game and had an omlette with fruit. Yay for healthy choices at restaurants.

People keep offering me things or talking about things I can't have and I get so frustrated. I just have to keep remembering that this isn't just for me and I can't give in.

ooooo... Pretty Colors!

So I never realized that a meal could be so colorful... today at luch I had green, orange, red, yellow, white and pink all going on in the same meal. It really was very pretty... and tasty! I still want some french fries real bad... I'm being good though. I'm kinda tired and me and Dad were watching an old Karate movie.

We're going through baby carrots so fast... Mom had to go buy more tonight... at least we haven't turned orange yet. Green Pepper is soooo tasty... I had some with lunch (the green bit) along with some veggie dip. I'm also groing very fond of cheese and plums... a better combo than you'd think. Well I think I'm going to get back to that movie now.
