    I caught up now
    Confession. I walked 2 miles to find a little cafe where they made these mini cheese cakes with black berries and a honey effusion. I thought about them the whole way. When I got there it was a bakery. They had some mini cheese cakes that looks similar to the ones I remembered. So I got one. I have never been so disappointed in cheese cake in my life. I logged it then went home had 2 oz bluebell ice-cream and 2 tablespoons of they really amazing peppermint dark chocolate fudge. At dinner I had a serving of Dutch chocolate ice cream. I woke up in the middle of the night and had a big cocktail grapefruit and had to log it as a plain grapefruit because MFP only has grapefruit cocktails. Then this morning I ate half of a mango. I am blitz creaking the sugar on my micros the last few days. What could this mean?

    That you are human. I am on an "I don't care" kick lately. I really need to get over this.

    I'm impressed you switched from ice cream sugar to fruit sugar during a **** it streak! I agree, it's totally a human moment


    I would have eaten the whole mango, It was one of the best ones I have had but MIL and hubby both wanted a few pieces. so I gave them some. I was kinda glad they did not want much. What a piggy I was.

    I should have stayed home today. I woke up freezing and feeling blah. Now I am freezing and feel like there's an ice pick n my right temple. I had Dunkin Donuts hot chocolate for breakfast in an effort to get warm. It worked for about 45 minutes, sort of. Ugh...3:30 can't get here soon enough.

    that's a vivid description. I hope you feel better! :( at least it's friday!

    So.... I forgot to take my Zinc this morning.

    I think I might come down with a cold.


    (and.... GO!)

    I usually cannot remember if I took my Zinc or Multivitamin in the morning.

    I swear I would forget my head if it wasn't connected to my body.

    I'm with you in trying to remember vitamins. It is a good thing I am not on any necessary prescriptions. I put them in a weekly pillbox to remember. Im good about half of the time,

    sigh...When I found that I couldn't eat peanut butter in moderation, and had to get it out of my apartment ASAP, I not only threw it away-I drowned the jar in water first so I wouldn't be tempted...

    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 :D.

    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.

    Yea Kelly that took ALOT of will power. I don't know how you did it. I would have to avoid those isles because things just jump into my cart.

    Does anyone here get or read or have easy access to Sunset magazine? I opened up the March 2016 issue.
    Page 19 - POW! There is a lovely shot of a Tucson resort and of the peak TK and I hiked. If you have access and look here is how to see where we were.

    On the right side of the page is a tall saguaro (cactus). If you follow it up to the top and keep going you will see just slightly to the right the highest point on that side of the page. That is Cathedral Rocks and that is where TK and I turned around and came back down. We didn't go that last 800 feet to the top, but just to the right of the peak on the flat area is where we were! If you are looking at that page there is also a white diamond of text and some partially blocked by the white text diamond some palm trees - the highest pack to the right.

    YAY!!

    I'll look for it

    So for those folks who could care less about my narcisstic (why is this saying its spelled wrong?) post about my trip to England ignore the below....

    So Nicci and I are starting to frame this up...

    Saturday I fly into London.
    Sunday run in Hyde Park, breakfast, site seeing
    Monday drive to Bath and stay in an amazing hotel (like 40% off this great hotel/spa with gorgeous grounds!)
    Tuesday drive to Stonehenge and then Devon, stay Wed in Devon and meet CHARLIE!
    Wed Devon
    Thursday back to London early so Nicci can rest/work and I can sight see
    Early drive to Scotland and settle into a little house by a Loch and get checked into our climb
    Saturday rest and be leisurely til night for climb up Ben Nevis
    CLIMB BEN NEVIS!
    Sunday rest or go hiking
    Monday drive to Edinburgh where Nicci will drop me off and head back to London. I will probably rent a car, stay in Edinburgh Monday and perhaps Tuesday
    Possibly go to Loch Ness (just to say I've been) and Isle of Skye but still figuring out my itinerary
    Then Wed/Thursday leisurely drive back to London (well its a long way maybe not so leisurely). Need to map this out and figure out hotel/town/drive or train this part... the driving in a strange country on the wrong side of the rode is part intimidation and part exhileration...especially as I'll be solo).
    Thursday in London sometime
    Friday my flight is at 6 pm so maybe some last minute sight seeing and then back to airport for 6 pm flight home.

    This is going to be an amazing trip. THANK YOU NICCI for being so accommodating. In return, even if you are half dead, I am going to physically drag your protesting carcass up that mountain at night if you even THINK about not making it this time.... We are going to watch that sunrise from the top of that mountain!!!!!

    It sounds fantastic. I think I'll be up and pack myself in one of your suitcases. ;) You don't need that many cloths anyway do you?
    When you start driving just know when you go to hit your turn signal the windshield wipers will go on instead. I was forever washing our windshields in Australia.
    Have saf travels.

    Oh please take care of yourself. When I am feeling sick and want a hot drink Traditionally medicals has a Gypsy cold care tea that is very tasty and makes me feel better. It helps a stuffy nose too.

    Yum on the cheesecake. Too bad it was awful.

    I confess I just ate 3 Twizzlers. Now I have the icky feeling from sugar. This is why I don't eat stuff like that.

    It was a very small one so I did not spend much calories on it which is good. Poor hubby who met me there worked hard to fine a positive in his because I was pouting. All he could come up with was that the crust was good. I consoled myself with the dark chocolate peppermint hot fudge over 2 oz vanilla ice-cream it was good.
    Now I really need to get back to business. I don't do as well when I eat a lot of sugary things.

    I confess that does sound good!

    Once I was talking to my hubby on the phone and wanted to put something in the notes section. I went around the house looking for my phone. Hubby asked what was wrong and I told him I could not find my phone. He started helping me think of places I might have put it down. Then the Dawning moment came and I started laughing.
    Duh I was talking on it.

    Okay, I've got my pajamas, warm blankets, tea, and I am going to write this paper I've been putting off. As suggested, I also stole some vegan chocolate cake to eat after 6 or so pages of arguing that suicide is morally permissible. :P

    Oh wow I'd need lots of cake after that paper too, yikes!
