Month two - 302

Okay, I lost another 1.5 pounds. That is a total of 44 pounds and not quite two months out.

Friday night, I took my kids and my mother to Disneyland for mommy's birthday. We had dinner at the Plaza Inn. Mummy and I love the "Broasted" chicken. I ate part of a "side salad" and part of the chicken breast and a few bites of mashed potatoes/no gravy. Oh, yeah, and I munched on some haricorts verts (green beans).

Saturday, Hubby took us out to breakfast. I got a crab omelet and he got Crab Benedict. I ate a few bites of each and had to shove it away. We packed it up and a munched on the omelet later. I deconstructed the crab cake from his Benedict and found very little crab meat. I ate whatever was there and trashed the rest of the "cake." The omelet was okay. I will choose more wisely next time.

We wandered into a See's Candies (I am trying to live VICARIOUSLY) and they offered a sample of Molasses Chips. I bit off half a chip and started to feel weird....Like when I eat too much gelato. I gave my sample to Hubby.

Later we got gelato at Newport Fashion Island. I ate less than half of my serving and gave the rest to the kids. They ended up feeding it to the Koi in the pond.

For dinner, I got a filet mignon wrap. It was full of yellow rice (tumeric?) and a little steak. Again, I had a few bites and gave the rest to Hubby. I didn't even try the "home" fried potato chips. Scared me. I tried a tiny gourmet Pringle and got a yucky tummy.

Sunday morning, I decided I was not going to "eat." Tired of the ensuing nausea. I slurped on a popsicle instead. Had lunch about 1 P.M. No nausea. Ate dinner. No nausea. Ate dessert (cottage cheese, lime jello and pineapple) and really took my time. No nausea. Hey, I think I have the hang of this!

This morning, slurped on two popsicles and drank a protein drink. By 11:30 I was starving and had an apple (ate too fast....that was close) and drank a milk from school cafeteria. Later, I had a couple more popsicles.

For dinner, I made chicken cacciatore. I ate my portion without pasta (well, I did sneak a couple of bites of pasta) and a tiny bit of Caesar Salad. I find lettuce goes down really well, believe it or not. And dinner is easier to eat than breakfast. OKAY....I think I got it....
