Monday, July 7, 2008 ... Stress, BFF of comfort food!

8:10am – Banana and Diet Pepsi

I’m STARVING!! It’s Monday and I’m the only admin showing up today. Stress is NOT my friend!! I knew it was going to be a hard day before it started. I had no idea of the amount of work that was left for ME to do. Oh happy day! WARNING: Stay out of my way today!!

8:20am – Ritz Bits Cheese Crackers

Why am I eating these DANG things!?!? I am not dealing well w/ stress!! I want comfort!!

1:33pm – KFC Snackers Combo w/ coleslaw instead of potato wedges

I’m sort of hungry but I have no idea what I want. I thought about Whole Foods… too expensive right before going on vacation. Plus the road was blocked w/ smoke or some large plume of something that I can friggin’ see through and don’t want to waste the gas by going around the long way. So KFC-Taco Bell is the 1st place on the right side of the road. I pull in and just order something. Not in the mood nor do I have time to deal w/ an upset tummy so I ordered this… I basically just wanted out of the office!!

BTW… I took 2 bites of the coleslaw. It’s NASSSSSTAY!!! A blessing in disguise!! Thank you LAWD for small favors!! He he!

3:00pm – 1 small apple

I’m still really busy… just take 1 step at a time now. Gotta sweet tooth but I wanted something healthy after the handy little artery clogger that I ate at lunch. Ahhh! What could be healthier?!

6:50pm – Marie Calendar’s Chicken Pop Pie

I waited a while to eat b/c I wanted to get some stuff done around the house. Plus I sat on my big butt all day. The last thing I wanted to do was go home and eat.

I ate the inside and some of the crust. Have you ever looked at the nutritional information on the side of the box!? HOLY CARPEL TUNNEL SYNDROME!! It’s got some outrageous amount of fat like 50 something grams… Hell, I didn’t know the thing weight more than 50 grams. How in the world does it have that much fat in it?!

9:00pm – Nestle Chocolate Chip Walnut cookie

I wanted something sweet. I honestly wished I hadn’t ate it. I could taste the indigestion… it’s purdy bad when food gives you that feeling before it even hits your stomach!!


10:15pm – Honey Nut Cheerios BIG BOWL w/ whole milk

I LOVE ending the day with cereal. I don’t know if it’s the stress from my day or the fact that Wes got some so I need some, too kinda thing that makes me “feel” like I’m hungry. No, I can’t say that I’m 100% definitely sure that I’m hungry.

BTW… I’m using whole milk b/c milk is way too expensive & Wes won’t use anything but whole milk. I gotta think of a way to change that. I’ve never liked whole milk and usually waste it. I don’t drink it when my cereal is done. I can just see my love handles growing so big that lovin’ isn’t an option anymore. HA HA!



Thankfully, my day ended so much better than it began!!
