So I recently hit 14 lbs down and had bought some new clothes on Black Friday so you can actually see that I've lost some weight. (yay size 10! woo hoo!). As a result I've been somewhat waiting for my 2 male room mates to say something along the lines of "Hey- you've lost weight" or "huh- you are almost attractive"... (They're blunt to me as part of my punishment for being female and occasionally ruining their male bonding time with a presence of estrogen:devil: )

Well last night, my fiancee and I were getting ready to do P90X in the living room and as usual it was taking my fiancee 20 mins to get ready and as my fiancee and the two room mates are sitting there jabbering I started nibbling off this piece of cake sitting on the counter. A nibble turned to bite, A bite turned into making sure all the edges around the cake are even, edge-evening turned into shameless mouthfulls, and mouth fulls turned into disgust- and in frustration for both myself and the fiancee who was still gabbing and not "bringing it" I threw the now mostly eaten calorie monstrousity into the garbage and went to grab a glass of water. Well my room mate standing between me and the water says- "wait, wait,wait (the room falls silent). Give me a high five Alexis." ( I high five him). He says "You've done a really good job on your diet. That's the first time I've seen you TOTALLY eat unhealthy in a really long time."

LOL... uhm... Thanks?! So embarassing... but I guess a somewhat back handed compliment- is Still a compliment! :laugh: And coming from him I'LL TAKE IT!:drinker:

    This was really funny! So truthful, too! I am like that with food...a little bit leads to a bit more! Good for you that you eventually tossed the stupid thing!

    D
  • That's funny, but at least he noticed the effort you're normally putting in!! And good job on throwing out the rest of it! Even though you ate some, you realized it was unhealthy, and knew not to eat more. :) Yay for willpower!

    Great job!!

    Haha! That's hilarious. I was already laughing by the "making sure all the edges were even part".... what about the... eat clumps out of the middle so maybe you could pass it off as the dog getting onto the stove stage? been there, done that!
