Satisfying the fat kid


Satisfying the fat kid.
Its not hard to satisfy a fat kid, they love everything . (Get your mind out of the gutter) I'm talking about doughnuts, pizza, disneyland...you know, simple stuff! But how do you trick the fat kid into thinking he's still fat and happy? Lean cuisine comfort foods are a great option, the fat kid doesn't need to know that your meatloaf and mashed potatoes are only 300calories, or what you are pretending is soda is actually just sparkling flavored water. But he's a sneaky bastard and just when you think you have control over the little jerk, BOOM Halloween hits and there is candy everywhere. We didn't even buy any this year, we gave out candy that was leftover from the wedding (sorry sam and cc). We gave it all out, we didn't want any left in the house. I was proud of us, nothing hits our weak spot like chocolate and peanut butter. So I'm riding on this high of control and a candy free house when I walk into work... freaking candy EVERYWHERE! Turns out my work is collecting candy to send to the troops! You try and turn away from a bag of Reese's. The only saving grace was the guilt trip of taking candy away from soldiers who are risking their lives for our freedom. Damn!
This week has been ok, workouts have been good, eating has been ok. Control is warring with the fat kid and it's been hard. My goal is to lose 10lbs in November. I only lost 1.5lbs in October and it's time to get the fat kid wagon rolling. So back to the food and workout diary. Remember im a catholic/lutheran hybrid so guilt trips can shame me into eating only celery for days. Thank you agin for the never ending support! The fat kid is shrinking today and the little jerk is fighting a tough battle.


Food diary:
2eggs, toast
2cups coffee with 1%milk and sweetnlow
Lean cuisine
Celery with hummus
Chicken tacos, lettuce, tomato,cheese, non fat sour cream, corn tortillas
Workout: 4 mile run with big dummy (our 70+ lb bloodhound pup)
