Unclean eating - the downward spiral

Oh my. As you may know, I've been on vacation this week. Didn't go anywhere, just stayed home and did domestic/gardening things. I worked really hard, but did I ever eat poorly! And the thing is, once you start, it's so easy to just keep going and going. I can't count the number of cookies I've eaten this week, and the Coke I've drunk. And I can see the difference. And I'm also now fighting a cold.

Eating clean is NOT just a myth. Tomorrow, I am BACK on it. I don't like the bloat and what I see in the mirror.

Okay, I think I'm done venting now.:p
 
I hope you enjoyed your vacation!

I seem to be on a mission to gain 10 pounds before the road trip! And I'm not talking muscle. In the past month, I've watched my hard won definition dwindle to little curves due to stress induced crap-food eating. :( I've just got to get back on the happy-food wagon! Must....eat....salad....ACK!

I've eaten four cupcakes and potato chips due to end of the school year/end of the soccer season parties. I didn't really blow it because I was otherwise healthy, okay downright clean, organic and perhaps, even angelic BUT it did make me feel yucky! There was fruit and some lovely veggies at the party and even stuffed from the cupcakes, I gorged on them, saying somebody stop me! Blargh, Shelley, blargh! I'll keep you in check if you keep me. We can exchange email photos of bloated people who eat only junk. Or watch Supersize Me at the same time! Tonight at 8:00? That's 11:00 for you, isn't it? That's too late, huh? If I stay up past 10:00, I am fried and then I'll eat anything that crosse my path with reckless abandon!

How about tomorrow then?

Is this just a coincidence that you all have cats in your icons? I just thought that was funny. Okay I'll go to bed now.

Emy - it is not a coincidence. It is symbolic of our secret plan for world domination.;)

Lunabadoona!!!! - where have you been? How is the new job?

Bobbi - I was asleep on the couch by 8:30 my time last night. I will promise not to eat any junk today and you can hold me to that! I'm off to have my 12 grain toast with natural pb and organic blueberries now!:)
 
Aww Shelley. I'm sure you'll bounce right back. Just BACK AWAY FROM THE COOKIES and you'll be fine! :) I know what you mean though...once you get a taste for the unclean it's hard to go back. My mom has been cooking for us all week and left us a bunch of meals as well. By the time all of her yummy food is eaten, I'm not gonna want to eat my normal diet anymore. x(

Hey Shelleyballooooo! I have been *exhausted*. The job is great but with the commute, it makes for an 11 hour work day. I have been stealthily lurking whilst at work, but by the time I get home, I don't even want to turn my computer on...I just wanna go to bed! I'll try to post a little more.

I missed you all!
 
awww Shelley I'm there with you. Last night hubby and I enjoyed some yummy raspberry vodka drinks...whoo whee! YUM. }(

I am writing it off as PMS, Perverted Munchie Syndrome. I have experimented with all manner of nutrient scant food lately, like a food junkie in need of a fix. But whatever that gnawing craving is, it cannot be satisfied by worthless food and, holding the empty cupcake paper, it's obvious it looks better than it really IS.

So, I am forgoing the unclean unless I know it will elicit delight and satisfaction the way it can when it's eaten occasionally. Sam's birthday is coming. Do I want to take away the excitement of eating chocolate cake for birthdays and special occasions, and better yet, frosting? Now I won't even be so happy to get to eat frosting until I wished I hadn't, dag nab it all! I think I may have short circuited my love of the occasional splurge already and that's fine because of the ones I HAVE eaten. Who needs it? The thought makes me make my face look like this: x(

I took the kids out for pizza last night and then to Baskin Robbins for ice cream. They were out of Pistchio Almond so I didn't get one. I had already decided not to since I'd eaten two cupcakes, pizza, a salad with ranch which was not on the side because those freaks poured it on top. But as I walked into the ice cream joint, I quickly decided what the H-E-double toothpicks, an ice cream cone won't kill me! Which of course it wouldn't have, but still, I didn't want it. I couldn't savor it. I was just going to eat it because we don't go to Baskin Robbins very often and it was there.

I have concluded this type food is evil and we have perhaps been hypnotized by someone or something who does not want the cat women and the dog mommie to take over the world because we are too bloated, fed up and over fed by our own lust for not just unclean food but filthy dirty rotten stinking insidious icky pooh pooh slop?

So I am declaring my intention to do thirty days of well planned workouts fueled by clean, preferabaly organic foods and lots of green tea and triple filtered water to detoxify my body of the poor nutrients and preservatives and additives, we can't forget the preservatives and additives, and not to eat the unclean unless I really truly want it and to eat only the dark chocolate that has so much cocoa (73%) that my neighbor's 2 year old actually dumped hers :)behind the back of my leather chair because it's so intense it doesn't taste like candy at all.

Much more importantly than all of this: Wendy, how's Joey and where are the pictures? You "sound" bright and happy. Are you up to taking over the world yet? Are you willing to get a cat to use as an avatar? Maybe we should get dog avatars to put those who might want to stop us from taking over the world from stopping us? Did I say that out loud?

Bobbi-

It is for this reason that I had to don my disguise. Perhaps if I look more like a frog and less like a cat, the the evil will be deflected and the stores of chocolate I am using to cleverly hide my abs will dwindle to their normal level.
 
I love your pic, Luna. Is that your cat?

As for unclean eating, I'm sick with a nasty cold and don't have much appetite, but I keep sucking on awful-tasting sugary lozenges, and as soon as one dissolves, I start to cough and need another. I even sleep with one in my mouth, not caring if it suffocates me, as long as I can stop coughing and go back to sleep. There is a guaranteed root canal at the end of this cold. :(

Shelley: I feel for you and I've been there. My solution is damage control. Buy the health-food store high fiber cookies, or buy a box of Luna bars. Despite your sweet tooth, some vitamins, minerals and fiber will sneek into your otherwise unsuspecting body.
 
Nope, not my cat. Rather the poor thing belongs to some wretched soul who has nothing better to do with his/her time than degrade the dignity that is inherent in cats. :D
 
Oh, Luna, Luna, Luna! Fat Cat is rolling around on the floor, which is not that unusual because rolling is all he CAN do, but he's clamoring for headwear now because Lime Cat and your lovely Frog Cat both have headwear. It should be illegal to be so darned cute! He wants a date with your Frog Cat. He says if "she's feeling froggy, she should leap". Right onto his fat belly! Ewww! He's such a pig! I have to go find a pig hat for him! A pig disguise is perfect for that beastly, portly porker of a cat! Very nice use of the word "stealth". I'll PM you with a few ideas regarding the future feline Utopia. Catopia? Do you think it wise to forgo a pig hat for, perhaps, a mouse cap? Who'd suspect a cat dressed as a mouse? I'll just have to figure it out. If I don't get going I will be late for yoga and I have nothing, and I mean nothing, even remotely clever to coming into my mind right now. :D You work on that! I have to go salute the sun!

Lunasalooona - I believe even the almight Limecat cracked a smile, nay a GRIN, at your new pics. I laughed out loud, which ended in a delightful coughing fit. Nancy, I feel your pain. I have nastiness which has apparently settled in my chest, but I'm fighting it valiantly.

So far today I have been uber-good. We are going to the movies tonight and I REFUSE to get popcorn. Refuse.

Bobbi - did you notice that now Marla has now joined our cause, wittingly or un-? Her cat appears to be asleep, but we all know that cats never really sleep, one eye is always open and on alert.

I'm so impressed with these photos!! We took exactly two photos of your cats in santa hats at Christmas, because 2 was precisely how many the cats permitted us to take!

Can you post a bigger Limecat photo? It looks like a watermelon- which my husband doesn't believe.

Either way, I love the cat photos!! Mine don't sit still long enough for many photos, before they go chase each other around the house like a typical brother and sister.

Since Shelley may be busy tending to her cute daughter, or her garden, or her SO, I'll step in to post her mugshot, which I found on America's Most Wanted Cats. Incidentally, Limecat is wanted for bank fraud and taking indecent liberties with a tipsy calico wearing a grapefruit hat.

LOL almost on the floor. The cat who is in here with me right now is looking at me, nervous I'll try to put one on his head.:D
OMG this is FABULOUS. Thank you!!!!
 
Limecat would like you all to know that the bank fraud was nothing whatsoever to do with him and the incident with the tipsy calico was a MISUNDERSTANDING (and besides, she started it...;) ).
