If he ever goes through with a sex change, he might have another chance, LOL! Seriously, you and Jessie are perfect together because where he can't make up his mind, you are there to say this is how it is, lol. I find myself attracted to those personalities bc I am the kind of person that can just go along with anything, lol. When I have to choose a place to eat or something to do, I freak out, LOL! So having someone who says this is how it is works :) Jessie missed his chance to get with me, hahahaha!!!! If he ever goes through with a sex change, he might have another chance, LOL!

He is big on routine, too. I'm not and when I break routine he gets very upset with me :) I think he puts up with it because I have sex with him. I swear, you and Jessie should have gotten married.

A Chinese guy that comes to the bar brought it to me, and I figured it was Christmas Eve, I'd have it. O..M...G...this is something I ate many times before and never had a problem. First, the sugar amount was WAY TOO MUCH. I had been eating high fiber oats for breakfast, so sugar that early was just too much. Then the danish traveled through my digestive system....and I was SICK...LITERALLY SICK for about 5 hours. I was working and could NOT stay out of the bathroom. I thought I was going to vomit, I felt soooo sick. It was that very moment that I realized I wasn't about to have a cheeseburger. If a cheese dansih did THAT to me..I can't imagine what grease would do to me. So I am literally scared to have anything fast food. I have gone to restaurants since then...not many times, but occasionally I do. But I have eaten good food...but like hotdogs or cheeseburgers or anything greasy. I am talking steaks or chicken kind of foods. I am really good with routines. I think part of eating fast food was because of the routine part of it. I ate it for breakfast lunch and dinner EVERY SINGLE DAY. My car could just drive itself to McDonalds for breakfast, LOL...I joke that the only veggie I had in the past 2 years was ketsup on a burger. But seriously, I can't remember eating veggies or fruit. So once I started a routine of NOT going to fast food, I settled down into my routine. It's not hard now. I'm just anal about having the same routine every day, LOL...

Really, that's always the hardest part. And if you want Mcd's, beware the McGas, McIndigestion, Mcsquirts, and McPain. It tastes good, but beats on you later. Sometimes I take it anyhow :) I’m so frigging proud of you for buckling down and just doing it. Really, that’s always the hardest part.

I love the fact that you post numbers because I too don't care what people think about my weight. It's really a personal journey that I deal with...no one else. I started one week before Thanksgiving (11 weeks today) not eating fast food. Yes, I need to exercise, but as of yet, the only thing I have changed is no fast food. I started out at a VERY unhealthy 217 lbs :( YIKES! It's not something that sneaked up on me, though. I saw it coming, and when I weighed myself I honestly thought I'd be over 220...so I was somewhat happy with 217, LOL. I weighed myself yesterday and I am at 198. UNBELIEVABLE! The ONLY thing I changed was no fast food and I have lost 19 lbs in 11 weeks. Mind you on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day I ate whatever I wanted without hesitation as I grabbed for the peanut butter fudge. I had already decided as long as there was no cheating before or after these days, I was going to treat myself. There is NO SECRET in dieting. Eat less and exercise more. There is no science behind it, and no lose weight quick scheme. At this point I am frightened to eat fast food because I am afraid of how my body will react. A McDonalds cheeseburger sounds good in theory; but if it gives me explosive diarrhea, I'll pass, LOL. After all, after 11 weeks, I'd say I'm over the compulsive part of fast food. It's kind of like going 3 months without smoking and then picking it back up....WHY??? I'm still WAY overweight, but I feel sexier (thought it's kind of a weird feeling for me, lol), I feel healthier, but I feel like I am doing the right thing, which is a great feeling all in itself. Many people at the bar told me it was stupid to diet during the holidays. My response was there was ALWAYS going to be an excuse to not diet. If I didn't start when I did, then it would be a New Year's resolution, which would not work. Then I can't diet during Easter or my birthday. There's ALWAYS something. I don't look at it like dieting, though. I am still eating A LOT, but it's a lot more veggies and fruit. I love steak, so every once in awhile, I have one. I could never be a vegan. When I started eating better, thanks to Helen and her family for including me in their dieting, the time was perfect for me. Here's the best news of all: I am on the last hole of my belt, and I tucked my shirt in today. I wouldn't do that before because the fat was too much to bare....now I am doing it. Even though I am still heavy, I just feel better about myself. It's a great feeling :) Ok, I love this blog.
