Fatten me up?

I have come to the conclusion, quite possibly, that Lisa is trying to fatten me up.

She bakes all these wonderful meals, and wonderful deserts and I cant help to eat them all up. Last night, for dinner, she makes tuna helper, cinnimon rolls, and Apple Yummies. I used the word yummies, because i really dont know what they are called. I just know they are delicious and probably completely non-nutricious.

This morning, Lisa gives me a bag with more Apple yummies, Cookies, Chocolate Chex Mix, and Oreos. She might be just trying to get them out of the house, or she might have a secret agenda to fatten me up for Thanksgiving Dinner.

Either way - Lisa can cook. I'm so lucky. If i disapear around Thanksgiving and Lisa has alot of extra brisket - you know what happened.

Catfish on Wheels

Normally, I wouldnt eat seafood, much less from a rolling restaurant. But being as food was brought due to a charitable cause, and I knew the cook. I decided to donate towards this cause and buy a plate.

This heaping of a plate filled with catfish,shrimp, and french fries. was a very generous amount.
How this money is actually going to the family and not the food, I have no clue.

Being from Florida, Fish taste different to me here. Fish with a Fishy Taste doesnt tickle my taste buds. I know what your thinking. - Its fish, Its supposed to taste like fish. All I'm saying is the gulf, has a certain taste that sticks to the animals that reside in it.

So after talking to my friend, And being tricked into thinking the breaded catfish was chicken. I tried it. The catfish was suprisingly good. How was I supposed to know that the catfish is a fresh water fish, that doesnt visit the gulf.

The shrimp on the other hand I dont care for, and everyone else's plate is so big , they wont even take the shrimp from me. Fries were delicious.

Nothing like donating to a good cause and having a full belly. Lisa will be proud of me for trying something new.

stupid diet!

So in my very best efforts to be supportive for my awesome other half "Lisa" . I have read 10 steps to be supportive for those people on a diet.

I am the cheerleader , the confidant, the supporter, I always try to show the positive.

the weight she expects to lose and the actual weight that is coming off are 2 different numbers. I'm trying to be supportive as possible. "Honey, its percentage based. Just becuase a 500lb woman lost 100lbs doesnt mean you can lose 100 lbs. " You dont weigh much more than 100 lbs anyway. Take time and let this work. Dont obsess. I love you the way you are.

I'm very proud of her, I'm sure its hard to give up popcorn, dp, chocolate, cake, bread, more bread, pillsbury - these are a necessity for Lisa's happiness.

I have been trained - if she is mad, give her food. If she is sad, give her food. I take full responsibility for this honey. Truly I'm sorry.

south beach phase 1 (continued)

After reading Lisa's post. I had to continue on the story. I have officially giving up the south beach diet , though still trying to be supportive of Lisa and her goal. Lisa said I dont need to lose any weight, and I understand this, though sometimes I wish my Ryan Reynolds 6 pack would mysteriously appear., without any contribution on my part.

Lisa is still very irritable, I have came to the conclusion that I cannot make her happy, Its all about the carbs and feeding her. My sporatic breakfast cooking has not happened, though I think making her breakfast really helps her mood.

I have been cooking more. I made hamburgers, and pork steaks on the grill monday night, and pizza last night, though Anthony wouldnt help me finish the pizza - so I had enough carbs for all of us yesterday. I think my stomach didnt appreciate the pizza, becuase it kept me up all night.I remember every dream I had last night inbetween naps. All depressing with a bad ending. Funny, I only wish carbs had the same effect on me.

But Kudos for Lisa, She is doing a really good job . I'm proud of her at any weight.

Carbs and South Beach Diet

Lisa has started the "South Beach Diet". I have accepted the good eating habits associated with this program. I have to be supportive of my loved one.

So Day 1 (Monday) - No Carbs all day. I had a craving for a snickers bar at lunch, so I avoided the candy machine by walking around the building the rest of the day. Other than this I was good.
Night time comes - I dont sleep. I wasnt really thinking of anything in particular- my body just didnt want to sleep.

Day 2 (Tuesday) though I didnt sleep all night, I was awake in the morning , like more than usual - I felt great. no carbs - no sleep.

Day 3(Wednesday) - decided to eat carbs for dinner. I'm mostly skinny. a few carbs wont hurt. I slept like a baby.


Lisa is struggling, I understand - no bread, no fruit, no chocolate, no popcorn. She is grouchy, but I understand why. I have to be supportive, but I dont know what to say, or what to do. She will be happy in the long run, as soon as she conquers this hurdle. She is persistant, and determined. I just want her happy, regardless of whatever she weighs.

Jelly Fish Take Over.

I went to do some audits in Point Comfort yesterday. While walking to the Ship, I was overwhelmed by the amounts of Jellyfish in the Green( Not so polluted water) If I was going to guess there were easily 1,000,000 jelly fish.

The masses of Jelly fish would make any poor accident proned man/woman a very bad case of Jelly fish stings if they so happened fall in the water. Being as there was 2" to 6" inbetween each one. Would that person die? Would they be in critical condition? Where did all these come from? What are their intentions? All these were questions I still have no answers for.

Sarah Palin Math Statistics

http://blogs.abcnews.com/thenumbers/2009/07/sarah-palin-up-among-republicans.html

So according to the newest poll we can verify that 76% of republicans are completely retarded, thinking its acceptable to have a moron run the country. Versus 25% of Democrats who thing the same thing. NOW the scary part. IF the number of democrats and republicans were statistically equal in this county. Sarah Palin would win by 1% of the vote.

Another reason not to have a snake.

It will kill your daughter.
