It was Dean's birthday on Tuesday, but he wanted his birthday dinner on Monday. On Monday we went to the market to get my weekly vegetables, and the makings for his chuckwagon casserole. The recipe calls for crescent rolls. He thought that if we got the reduced fat ones, that it would be better for him in the long run. We stopped to compare and contrast the nutritional facts on both the regular canister of crescent rolls, and the reduced fat one. We found out, that there was absolutely no difference. But as we were walking away from these in the store we heard a loud "BOOM!" We turned around and discovered that one of these cans busted open in the market. I made the cynical comment "It has too much fat, it couldn't stay in it's clothes anymore!"
Then over the last couple of days, one of the secretaries has continually asked me to make a Book of Mormon, out of food art. Either fruits and vegetables, or M&M's... the candy is much, much easier to do. But it's impossible to make any food art without snacking on some.
Also, one of my psychology teachers bribed us. She said that if we could find anything positive regarding common core curriculum, she would offer us an undetermined surprise. I was hoping it was 20% extra credit or something fantastic... You can imagine my dismay when she presented me with a bag of M&M's, and 1% extra credit. It took a long time to find positive things regarding common core, and I know that it will also take a long time for the weight of M&M's to come off..... and no, as for the record, I have not consumed them. Dean, however, very willingly offered to take them off my hands. I told him I was going to put them in our tiny fridge in our office and eat them once I am in the maintenance phase of the program. Did you know that there are 250 calories in a bag of those things! That's a lot!
Also today, when I got dressed for school, I came out of the bedroom, only to be informed by Dean that the shirt I was wearing, was "hideous." A shirt that used to fit me well, has now become a parachute.
Also, this week, I have found, that for whatever reason, the universe is against me getting my lean and green meals completely in. Most of the protein that I have attempted to eat, has caused me to feel violently ill, so I have not consumed much "lean" of the lean and green meals. I don't know whats going on. Most of the foods, I have always liked in the past. I tried a new sauce last night, and I think I might be allergic to an ingredient in it. I immediately felt an overwhelming fear to spuke my insides out, and my tongue broke out in a ton of tiny white dots. I don't know what's wrong with me. I think it might be my bile reflux disease reminding me that it's here to stay, or stress, who knows. As I have been getting quite nauseous in between feeding times too.
