Good Day! Don't think me a fool! Don't think of me as weak as I am! Don't criticize ANYTHING I do or eat by saying anything about it! This is what I ate and did:

I ate nothing when I just woke up, but blogged my story in, "Adventures of an Ordinary Christian." Then I ate nothing until I ate at the mall with my daughter. She went shopping and I dictated medical reports while sitting at the food court. (She knew just where I would enjoy myself.) She said, "I'll meet you at the food court." I happened to already bring my food, because that is the kind of person that I am. Actually, I was going to do my reports in the car, so I was going to eat there, but she convinced me to go into the mall, because she had a friend of hers who's dad actually died because he sat in the car while it was snowing (because it was actually snowing today, as I was in Kentucky)due to the fumes from the car heater. So, that is why I happened to have my food with me, because I wasn't planning on going into the mall.

While walking to the food court, I walked past a cute dress, and noticed that the name of the store was from that cute store that I had gotten cute clothes from several months ago (from a different mall in California, where it doesn't snow, except in the mountains). I found that the cute skirt that I had paid, like, 159.00 for was on sale for 19.00! Go spit up, already! So I asked the lady, after carefully tucking my grapefruit, apple and protein bar away so she couldn't see it (how embarassing that would be), if I could like, get some sort of refund, because, I, like actually paid full price. She said, "Of course, if you bought it within 14 days." Well, I bought it like 3 months ago, but that is still, like no fair! But the skirt is really cute. It is gold and made of a velvety fabric and kind of short. Something that would NEVER have fit may body image anytime in the past, say for the past approximately 17 years, up until like 18 months ago.

So, there I was at the food court and I ate a Hogen Diaz bar, a grapefruit, an apple, a protein bar. Later, back at the hotel room I ate another protein bar and a type of....large tangerine (it was some sort of hybrid citrus thing - you know, round, this one happened to be orange. No seeds were in it of course because seeds don't come in genetically altered fruit - otherwise, why bother with the genetic alteration!

I didn't eat again until dinner and this is what I ate: Salmon salad. MMMMmmmmm. It had mozerella cheese in it and tomatos with a balsamic vinegerette dressing. I had gin and tonic (!). I ate in the hotel dining room and nobody was there except me. I dictated more of my report onto my telephone before and after the meal. For me, that was fun. I ate a dessert (my 4th grader boy knows the difference between desert and dessert, but not his doctor-mother, don't tell him - though he knows his mother can't spell well, I don't want him to realize just how desperate the situation really is!). Did I spell it right, dessert? Okay, so I have a learning disability, it has nothing to do with IQ.

But this is how come I said not to criticize me because I felt like I ate so much food, and I did eat a hardy dinner, but I didn't do too bad earlier. But how am I going to get down to my 150 pounds?????????????????????????????????????????????

Later: well, it is now about five hours latr and I am still feeling a bit full from dinner. Bloated actually. But I got a good idea, and that is to re-enter LA weight loss and get down to 148 pounds. Then I'll be set. Everyone needs a little help now and then. I do.
