fat day.
AND i have a friend who should change their christian name to a native American sounding “poop don’t stink”.

“poop don’t stink”  says HI!

So today is the first day of this cleansing colon blow deal that my friend Sandra has convinced me to go on. I am supposed to eat nothing and drink at least a gallon of this lemon juice, maple syrup, and cayenne pepper drink. If I want more to drink I can drink only water.
I have drunk a half gallon of water and a half gallon of the special lemon drink. Let me tell you I could so go for a burger and fry’s right now. But that is exactly why I don’t need it.
I weighed in today and I am a whopping 219 that is without my huge boots. We’ll see what happens. Check it out i look like a chubby preacher.

I have been trying to stop drinking coffee and soda. I almost kicked the habit and then we got these sweet looking plain white paper cups at my work. I was compelled first had a coffee in one and then a Dr Pepper. I love the simple white cup. I am sitting here at my desk and I realize that I did not even want coffee or soda I just think the cup is cool.
What is wrong with me.
I enjoy certain things and the way they look. I should have gone into marketing or something. I don’t know who I would have marketed to exactly but I think that would be a fun field of work. Yes I did dvr “mad men” but I never got around to watching it and it started erasing itself.
Today I decided that boots and jeans would be a cool look for me. It is a fun way to go to a show or to kick around in for a little while, but to work, and then to a meeting after work? Yeah, pretty darn ill advised. My shirt is just a smidge too small and it is not just small in the tummy where I can’t stop growing it is small under the arms, my jeans, the ones La Mex loves on me and I don’t know why other than they are kind of tight in the arese, the boots I rescued from Uncle Jerry my ultimate hero who got them at a yard sale for a dollar. They are old and broken in and scream ultimate cool. I look pretty cool the image is there but I am uncomfortable, and I don’t need the sugar in the Dr. Pepper I am drinking just now either but the white paper cup, it called to me. I feel cool with it in my hand. Steve McQueen cool. Old Mercedes convertible driving south on California’s hwy 1 cool. Simple and elegant.
I love the look, I live for the cool but naturally I go back to comfortable.
I should have had water in my unassuming white paper cup and I should have worn my James Dean khaki pants and comfy worn slip-ons. Cool and comfortable could have come together.
I am trying way too hard. Trying to make this post make since and trying to achieve the next level of cool. But lets face it this is a ramble on and I am only as cool as feel, and I fell so uncomfortable that I am not cool at all. This Dr. Pepper is way too sweet for my tastes. I am growing out of it just as I am this shirt.
Happy Tuesday.

Well it is that time of year again. Josh my brother in law and closest confidant calls and says well it is snowing buckets here in IA and I turn green with envy. I haven’t seen snow except in pictures in what seems like for-e-ver. And I love snow. Not a chance we will ever see any here this year it seems. We actually all agreed that this past summer or Dry season was not bad. It rained. It did not kill us with its heat. My grass stayed a little bit green. But now that is supposed to be dropping off and getting cold it refuses to do so. Case in point I am wearing my Chaco’s to work today. Yeah I have sandals on. NOT COLD ENOUGH FOR NOVEMBER.

I am thinking about Josh right now because I just got one of his Christmas gifts in the mail. I love ordering stuff online! And then waiting for it to come in the mail! It is the anticipation. Like Thursday being my favorite day of the week.

Man so I skipped lunch today because I wanted to get out of here early. Well I ate just almonds at my desk. And I had a coke. I’d like to publicly apologize for eating unhealthily today. Let’s face it though I will probably have a few more unhealthy days between now and the next work week. O my weight loss is going now where I am fatter than ever and today it is really showing. I wore my favorite t-shirt and it is just a little bit on the snug side. I wore it anyway because of what it made me think of. I got this crazy hair up my butt last Christmas to go to Patagonia’s first surf shop in Cardiff by the sea, CA. it is right north of San Diego and since we were going there and I was driving I decided that is what I wanted to do. I went saw a shirt I liked and they did not have my size. Well actually I should have probably went with the extra large they had vs’ the Large that I had to call back a month later and pay for shipping on. Cool place and if you are into atmospheres and cool places where you want to stand and drink in the wonder of a place that is a good area of the world to do so in. I would give my right nut to live there in a paid off house. Um yeah I know even a matched set aren’t going to buy me that.

So I am eating small portions the next couple of days and I swear I’ll stop when I am full not when I get tired of eating. Ok you two have a happy thanksgiving

Ever see a picture of your self and think whoa I did not see that before? Yeah I just saw some pictures of a fall party we had Sunday. I look swollen, all over. No wonder my pants are all fitting snug. So I am going off all sugar and watching what I eat like a hawk. I will weigh in tomorrow night and see what the damage is. I want to give myself day to loose some sugar weight before I weigh in.

So From now until Christmas, I will report exactly what I eat, and drink on my quick loss challenge.
Wish me luck.
Any suggestions on dieter’s tea?
