Please please PLEASEEEE refrain from being mean.
Here goes it!
I wear a trash bag under my clothing when I exercise and also for about half of my day.
Yeah it's not as sophisticated as a Wrap or Those belly wrap things but honestly I like it better. It covers my whole upper body besides my neck, head, and arms. Maybe one of you do the same thing :P
On Saturday I ate a corn dog covered with chocolate sauce and sprinkles.
I wish I were playing and not calling...
I wasnt' sure if this counted as dessert for dinner. If so, B-1!!!
She didn't say she ate it for dinner. And I'm not sure I would count a chocolate sprinkle covered corn dog dessert.

Lo and behold, my khaki's are almost falling off my butt. I'm a little bummed since I JUST bought them a month ago, but I can't be too mad because my butt is clearly smaller! NSV!!!!
Also, I'm completely jealous of the chocolate covered corndog. Sprinkles make everything better
I see what you did there.

Just call one that you find and name it B-whatever#. Find the next one and name it I-whatever#. Basically the first person to call five total...0 -

This sounds kind of gross. I haven't had a corn dog in like ... I can't even imagine. 25 years? Anyway, from what I remember... I don't think it would taste good with chocolate???0 -

Looks like you are on the rebound and feeling better!!
Yep. Except hubby just texted and said the kiddo just puked... It's a never-ending cycle.
I want to get so sick I can't work.... of course that NEVER happens. Dang internet. I can always work at home, emailing as I puke...0 -

I can't believe I shared that.
Its funny you say this because sometimes, i will have weak moments when i buy things i should not eat. so i put it in water, because if i just toss it, i will get it out and eat it. LOL.
-_-
I actually did that with cheesecake the other week.
I ate almost all of the cheesecake in one sitting & threw the rest in a plastic zip close bag in the trash. Awhile later I took it out of the trash & ate the rest haha.
So embarrassing to actually confess that one LOL!
You must have semi thought you would do that our you wouldn't have put it in a plastic bag.
True haha.
Today I didn't exercise for Lent, but I am still counting it since I pushed carts at work for around 10-15 minutes.
I still haven't bought any processed snacks or had ice cream. It is getting harder now that the Easter candy is starting to appear, but I will stay strong & not buy any.
I have been doing good the last few days. I hope I can keep it up when I get home!
You would be proud of me today considering what I gave up for Lent!
The struggle was real.
I walked down our store's Easter Candy aisle & salivated over all of the Easter Candy (not literally of course). I picked up a package of the Mini Cadbury Eggs & sniffed their chocolate goodness. Thank God no one saw me do that or that would be quite embarrassing. I didn't buy a damn thing. The Carrot Cake Hershey Kisses & M&M Sundae flavor looked good.
I then went to Giant & only bought 2 Pineapple Cottage Cheese & a frozen Evol meal I've wanted to try forever. No processed snack/junk foods were bought.
You should've seen me at the ice cream aisle. I probably stood their five minutes staring at all of the new flavors! I know where I am going after Lent is over. So many new brands & flavors.
Yay! Now...do me a favor don't undo everything the day after easter. Learn new good habits.
Yeah after Lent I am only buying one or two ice creams & then finishing them & then buying more. I am not going to hoard food/snacks like I did before since all the choices can be overwhelming when you're looking for a snack in the cupboard.
Yes but maybe buy 1 a week and make that treat day? Or 2 days a week?
Most of the ice creams/gelatos I buy are pints that are around (four servings per container).
Limit 1 per 2 weeks? Just trying to be helpful!
That's what I'll probably end up doing.
I'm not sure I'll buy any Easter Candy to be honest. I might buy a package of Peeps to roast on a campfire, but none of the candies have really called out to me. The only Easter Candy I might buy a few of are the Russell Stover Eggs.
The only new food item that's not ice cream that I might try once Lent is over is the new Oreos that are supposed to taste like a cupcake. I wish Oreos would come out with sample size packs of all the new flavors that way you don't have to buy a whole pack.
I made sure I squeezed in a workout today even though I didn't feel like doing one. Just Dance for the win! My three year old niece even tried to dance. It was funny/cute.
I am still good on the vegan part. There were a few sketchy things that probably had dairy in them this part week but I am not going to stress about it. The weekend is always good exercise but I did blow my streak yesterday. Went back to bed rather than exercise.
You deserve a rest. What's the hardest to give up when you go Vegan?
I might need to skip my exercise everyday in Lent since I was limping a bit at work.
That is a bummer what did you do to yourself?
I don't find going vegan hard in terms of missing food (I mostly eat vegan anyway and have been vegetarian for 20+ years) it's when you are starving and everything you look at has some kind of daily product in it that gets tough. I am going to try to start to cook for myself (maybe) that will help.
I am thinking it's from playing Just Dance the past two days, sleeping on my leg wrong, or standing on my feet for around 7-8 hours a day. I might just walk for my exercise during the rest of Lent.
That would be hard as far as finding food that is animal friendly & can fit into your overall diet. Do you have a lot of restaurants near you that are vegan friendly?
No but most restaurants are pretty good about cooking alternatives and I have no problem asking for things cooked differently than they call for in a menu. Unusual diet requests are so common now. Sometimes I end up with just a large plate of vegetables but if they are cooked well that is ok by me!
If you get into the back-woods and very rural America you might have more problems, just plain due to lack of the number of people who eat that way and the restaurants / cooks not having any real experience in accommodating and understanding special diets. Daughter, TK, and I stopped at a restaurant on the way back from Ren Fair last weekend where they had never heard of gluten-free. It was surreal - as if going back in time 20 years to when I was diagnosed. They were very nice and tried - but as soon as we saw the food we knew we could not eat it. It was not their fault and they tried, but they just didn't understand the necessity of avoiding cross contamination, etc. Even daughter's garden salad was contaminated. We enjoyed the ambience and watched TK eat. We made it look as if we'd had some of our meal and headed down the road. That is the first real strike-out in food I have had in a long time.
I had a funny experience in rural PA. I told them I was vegan (last time I tried this) and people were coming up to me to meet me saying they had never met a vegan before. I was a local celebrity. It was so funny. I had a very limited diet there.
Did they ask for an autograph?
That's funny that you had people come up to meet you since you were a vegan.
It was hysterical. I felt like something from a zoo. I had to keep explaining no dairy. Butter is dairy. No eggs. Desserts have eggs. My friend who was with me and I still laugh about it.
I guess I could see how that could be fascinating to someone who is a non vegan.
What supplements can you use in recipes that require eggs?
Angel Food Cake is one dessert that I can think of that is just cake mix & water (not sure if there's any animal products in the cake mix though).
I mostly never eat dessert. Sorbet if it doesn't have dairy. I want to try the vegan cheesecake. 0 -

I have so far but am probably going to be over in calories eating nuts instead. The full bowls of M&Ms in the office next door are calling... I just got coffee with almond milk and sweet and low so hopefully that will back me off. Thank goodness for you guys.... 0 -
POF I avoided the M&M 's today and you can too! You have this.0

Not nice? I was simply saying if you want to, then do it. And I was encouraging you to NOT do it in my first sentence!
Anyway, good job not giving in.0 -

I am a fan of #soberdays, but not opposed to social drinking. Enjoy!
