Just another Monday!

Hello all.  Sorry I haven't written in a week.  I know I should be ashamed but I was really hiding!  I had a terrible food week!  I even broke down and ate real ice cream on Saturday and did not drink one drop of water yesterday!!!!  But...I weighed this morning at 250 lbs, which is a total loss of 38lbs!  and that was on the doctor scale!  So I am back on track now (again) I had a 250 calorie lunch and a 100 calorie snack, it was a skinny cow ice cream!  and it was sooooo delicious!!!  Almost too good to be true! 

Skinny cow now that's an oxymoron!  Has anyone ever seen a cow that was skinny and healthy?  No!  Just the image it brings is sickening! 

Wow, that was a weird tangent.  So, my son, who was in culinary school, made a terrific statement the other day.  It was, "fat=flavor".  Of course he was talking about adding fat (butter, oil, etc) to a recipe but I got to thinking, why couldn't that apply to people as well?  It could.  Fat equals flavor!  Why does someone who is overweight have to be boring and predictable, why can't we be spontaneous and fun?  I don't know about others but I AM!!  I love having fun, dancing, singing (even though I can't), playing, swimming, travel!  I love it all and I shouldn't shy away from it because I am heavy and I refuse to live my life according to other people's standards!  I WILL BE ME WHEN I AM HEAVY AND I WILL BE ME WHEN I AM NOT!!  Just weight and watch me!
