going up, going down
Posted by Sherry on September 29, 2009
While Mauri’s out eating Pasquale’s pizza with the five other NFC Brass players, using a portion of the lucre from a wedding gig, look what I’m having for dinner.
Is that fair?
Actually, it is fair. For too many months now I’ve been eating with abandon, and that lack of discipline always reaps the same result. So for the umteenth time, with some tangible accountability and now your knowledge, I’m committed to getting back down where I belong.
PS: Don’t worry about me. I’ll eat more than 13 brussels sprouts before the day is done.

This way you get to claim the moral high ground
I don’t care how bad you feel for eating with abandon, there’s no reason to now eat with self-destruction as the goal. Brussel sprouts???
In the Hebrew they are identified as the forbidden fruit. “For in the day ye eat thereof ye shall surely die.”
I’m right there with you, sister! I spent the whole summer eating whatever and whenever and now it’s hard work getting back to where I feel comfortable and not like I’m carrying around a water-filled balloon every time I take a walk! We shall persevere!!
Oops! Busted! I have been comforting myself the last couple of years with food, so I too need to find some control. I was happily reading your blog while munching on “candy corn”. It’s like when you go to Church and the minister seems to be preaching just to you. Thanks for the inadvertant accountability. “Nothing tastes as good as thin feels”!!!
