I am so over the following:
Being tired.
Cranky babies that refuse to take their naps.
Obsessing about food and/or exercise.
Worrying about being fat.
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Ulises is helping me focus on meal planning so I don't have to THINK about eating. I make myself eat 6 times a day (3 meals, 3 snacks...yesterday I didn't even hit 1400 calories eating 6 times!), even if I am really not in the mood for food (using the whole "I don't feel like eating" is an overused excuse to starve) at the same time I am eating so often I don't feel like binging. Today is only my second day doing this, but I am going to do it every day until we leave for Florida. I write down what I eat all day and keep it out in the kitchen. I told Ulises that he CANNOT let me binge and he makes sure I don't skip any meals or snacks. Hopefully it will all become habit and I won't need a keeper. In a way I feel like an alcoholic or druggie in rehab but at least I have someone willing to help me, and he's free :] I am getting over the mental issues associated with this crap, though there have been things that have triggered it big time this past month, I just don't know how to eat anymore. I have also promised not to drink this entire week.
It doesn't matter how many times I watch Paula Deen on tv, I am still amazed at how much butter and mayo she uses. I don't think I have ever intentionally put mayo on anything in my life, and the only time I use butter is when I bake and very rarely when I cook. I can't even stand it on toast...it's disgusting to me. On the subject of gross food items, I hate oil of any kind and cannot fathom using as much olive oil as Rachael Ray does!
K I'm totally closing my eyes now.
