good news, bad new

So a lot has happened, sorta, in the last couple of weeks. First of all I hit my first major mild stone, I hit the 50 lb mark recently. I am slightly shocked that I didn't get on here and blog about it right away. But there you have it. I have lost a total of 53 lbs to date. I am pretty excited about that.

On the flip side of that last week was a little hard. I think I am still in mourning a little. Last week I really wanted a big old burger or a nice rib steak. This is sooo not an option. I know that and most of the time I am fine with that, however last week I really wanted that. I couldn't indulge in those cravings, so I bought stuff I could consume. Over a 5 day period I bough a lot of chocolate, 3 bags of chips and 1 pint of Häagen-Dazs, and 2 frozen yogurt containers. Please note that I did not eat all of this, I just bought it. I ate some of the Häagen-Dazs and a bit of the chips, but I did eat lots of chocolate. Lots. It's hard to write what I want to say because frankly, I did it, I know I was just missing big ol' beef products and trying to get the same happy feeling from something else. WTF? I am weird.

On a completely different note, I managed to go for a walk during my lunch hour this week. I was nice, but slightly depressing. We walked for 30 mins, doing the touristy thing and walking parliment. It was fine till I got back to the office and broke out sweating. Eeeewww! Oh well. I am going to try to do that 3 times a week. That is the goal. I am also suppose to sign up for belly dancing classes that start next week. Still haven't done it. My exercise buddy seems to be flaking out. Do I still go? I really want someone to go with. Sigh. I'll figure it out.

As I may have mentioned previously, I have stopped eating chicken. I was blocking with it and didn't really feel up to trying to consume it. Well, I am not sure if it is chicken or how I am eating it, so I am going to give chicken another try. I will try it cut up tiny, like feeding your 6 month old tiny. hopefully I can continue to eat chicken. Right now I eat fish and veggies and couscous (and the occasional pasta dish). I just need more. But on the brighter side of things, anything I make from that cookbook, is delicious! I have made quite a few recipes and they are fabulous.

Well this post has been challenging, and possibly incoherent. I am attempting to blog with 2 kids playing... not the best idea I have ever had.
