the diet started today… again

Jul 11, 2022

My big diet started today… again. It’s not like I haven’t done this a bajillion times before. I should be an expert. I spent yesterday bugging around eating and drinking every single thing I wanted. 🙂

Perry is 140 pounds soaking wet and eats like he’s the host of a tape worm. That sort of sucks when I can look at food and put on 5 pounds. He was around yesterday for the last big hoorah, but may be absent on most upcoming meals. I don’t blame him.

I started a chat group.

Jerilyn and Katie are in on this diet journey with me so I started a chat group and named it, “Fat Girls.” We weighed in and sent a photo of our weight with our feet on the scale to keep everyone honest. For all you thin and normal sized people… dieting sucks.

Although my breakfast and lunch combination tasted pretty good today, I’m guessing in a month it will be next to awful.

eggs and tomatoes

I have a bad back. Jerilyn has a bad heart. Katie has a bad knee. This is the best thing we can all do for one another. But right now, I don’t like either one of them very much… and I haven’t even done my treadmill grind yet today.

TIL (Today I Learned): “American cheese” is a combination of cheddar, Colby, washed curd, or granular cheeses. By federal law, it must be labeled “process American cheese” if made of more than one cheese or “process American cheese food” if it’s at least 51% cheese but contains other specific dairy ingredients. (Sure wish I could eat some.)
