End of the Week #2



Ok, as promised, one picture. But my face looked like the crypt keeper, so I cut it out, lol. That's what happens with like no sleep and bad lighting, folks.

Now...here goes...

As of this morning, I was down 4 pounds, 4 ounces. So, yay! I still expect my weight loss to slow down in the not too distant future.

I've been a big fat slacker, exercise wise, so I'm going to resume that tonight.

Does anyone else get really freaking annoyed by the stupid commercials for crap - usually sold at GNC or Complete Nutrition - that talk about how, if you only take this supplement once a day, you'll be all skinny and toned right away? Every time I hear one, I want to punch my radio. Seriously.

Do people actually buy this garbage? They must, or this crap wouldn't be on the radio. One commercial even laments that ephedra is off the market. Really? Heart attack, stroke, and death - that's preferable to eating healthy foods and working out? For real?

It also sort of concerns me that, in the obesity epidemic in this country, fast food places keep coming out with bigger, crazier, fattier crap. Sonic has a quarter pound chili dog, KFC has the godawful Double Down, Hardees has - well, everything on their menu, pretty much - and Friendly's has that wretched sandwich with grilled cheese sandwiches as buns. Gross. Even Subway has pizza and biscuits and gravy now. I want to see some fast food with fruits and veggies!

Stats: 22 pounds to pre-preg weight, 32 pounds to goal.

  1. I like the salmon bowl from LJS. Veggies, baked salmon, little rice. I find it very satisfying actually!

    And I would give anything for healthy fast food. I soooooooo miss Roly Poly.

  2. It's good, but (and maybe it's just here) a little too greasy.

    Subway is goodish, but I'd give - uh - someone else's left arm for a drive thru place with fruits, veggies, and, like, chicken or whole grain pasta. Mmmmm.

  3. Tim would so eat a sandwich with grilled cheese sandwiches as the bun if I let him, lol. And, our Subway doesn't have pizza or biscuits and gravy. And I think it has a lot more veggies than other ones I've seen. Score one for Cali.
