As promised I am posting my weight chart from the last 90 days. As you can see I had a lot and I mean a lot of over days. But the good news is that I still managed to meet my goal.
As I look back on the last 90 days I can honestly say that it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. Sure there were days that I had less than 500 calories and I was tempted to eat the cat, but I figured just eat a pickle and be done with it. There was other day’s I should of had 500 calories…but obviously, I cheated. A bite or two of Andrew’s sandwich here, a spoonful of cereal there, those silly calories all add up.
Thanks James
Back in August I posted about going on a diet. I am happy to report it is over for now. (I’ll post the results tomorrow.) Both Dick and I met our goal on Sunday. We were both so excited, we decided we would celebrate for two days by eating anything and everything we wanted.
We started our binging spree Sunday morning just after sunrise. Here is what we had.
- Sunrise Donuts
- Starbucks Coffee
- Bag of chips
- A Coke, regular. That was delicious
- Taco Bell for me and Taco Del Mar for Dick
- Some of Andrew’s Halloween candy
- Vincenzo’s Italian food for dinner, with Tiramisu for dessert
We had so much to eat our stomachs ached. But damned if we didn’t have a good time shoveling it down.
Here is what I had on Monday, since Dick had to go to work, I have no idea what he had.
- Chips for Breakfast
- A Jr. Whopper with cheese, fries and onion rings
- Candy
- Left over Italian food
- More candy
- Ice cream cone from Culver’s
If I ever do the binge thing again, it will all be junk. Chips, donuts, cookies, soda, cake etc… I had a great time eating some of the foods I missed over the past 90 days.
Thanks Michele
Yesterday I heard my phone ring and I went to answer it. I followed the ring trying to find it. I went to the sound of the ring, it sounded weird. But when I got to where I thought it was, it wasn’t there. The ringing stopped, but I was determined to find it. I looked and I looked and I could not find it! I looked every where!
The phone rang again a couple hours latter. I still could not find it! Finally, around three I went to the fridge for a snack. Guess what I found? My phone, in the refridgerator. I’m not sure when I placed it in there. Or why. What was I thinking?
….. goes back for more
Thanks James
Andrew came home with 7 lbs of candy on Halloween. Here is a look at his loot. With the best candy at the top of the picture and the crappy candy at the bottom.
Here is a close up of his best candy. He only had one full sized candy bar. This was also the first candy he ate.
Here is a close up of his worst candy. Yes, it is Christmas candy, and yes it is partially unwrapped. He didn’t keep this one. Is there even Christmas candy in the stores yet? My thinking is this is someone’s left over candy.
He didn’t like the casserole
And he didn’t like my cake.
He said my biscuits were too hard…
Not like his mother used to make.
I didn’t perk the coffee right
He didn’t like the stew,
I didn’t mend his socks
The way his mother used to do.
I pondered for an answer, I was looking for a clue.
Then I turned around and smacked the shit out of him…
Like his mother used to do.
Thanks James
What a blast this year was. This was the first time Andrew went Trick or Treating by himself. (He went with one of the neighborhood kids) Dick and I stood home, I gave out candy and had a few beers. Dick just drank gin and watched football until Andrew came home. Then we raided his loot! He had a nice haul too, 7lbs of candy. That should last till Spring of 2010.
It didn’t take me long to run out of candy this year. Also the kids appeared much older than years past. I guess if I stop to think about it for a minute, it only makes sense. The kids in the neighborhood are getting older. Their not cute little tikes anymore, they are awkward clumsy preteens.

What do you get when you mix PMS with GPS?
Answer:
A crazy bitch who will find you!

Just like most people I get tons of junk mail, most of them are for credit cards. Dick and I have a rule, “If you can’t pay for it with cash then you don’t need it!” Dick has a credit card that he uses for travel, otherwise we use our debit cards for everything.
I recently got an invitation for the Visa Black Card. It came in this pretty black envelope and it looked like a Halloween card, and the only reason I opened it. Otherwise I would of shredded it right away.
For those who demand only the best of what life has to offer, the exclusive Visa Black Card is for you. The Black Card is not just another piece of plastic. Made with carbon,
it is the ultimate buying tool.The Black Card is not for everyone. In fact,
it is limited to only 1% of U.S. residents to ensure the highest caliber of personal service is provided to every Cardmember.
1% of U.S. residents? What makes me so special? I don’t even have a job? (or want one) What made my jaw drop was the annual fee of $495. I would never pay that much money just to own a credit card.
Supposedly, this card is the competitor to the American Express Centurion Card. Now this card is even more prestigious than the Black Card. I think you have to be filthy rich to own this one.
If you want to hold a Centurion Card, you must be a Platinum [American Express] cardholder for at least one year and you must have spent $250,000 on the card in twelve months.
Spend $250,000 in one year? Whatever!
The Centurion Card is in a class of its own. When you qualify for the Centurion Card, you will be charged a $5,000 initiation fee and an annual membership fee of $2,500. That’s a total of $7,500 will owe after the first billing period without having spent any money.
And then you wonder why so many people are in debt. $7,500 just to own the card? Screw that! If you have that much cash then you don’t need the freaking card. What could they possibly be charging? A boat? An airplane?
