I have been keeping Cheerios and tangerines in my desk at work specifically to keep myself from succumbing to the dread vending machines what have Cheetos and ice cream bars.

But I'm huuuungry!
You're supposed to be!

What is even happening?
I used to get stuck on the give-up-completely track, and it's happened both when I've denied myself, and when I've "cheated" (which is a term I don't use any more, where food is concerned -- because I never pledged my troth to salads and boneless, skinless chicken).

Or, I could just wait a few minutes and see if the hunger pangs disappear.
Yep, they're gone! I'm thinking they were in my head instead of my stomach.

You outfoxed your hunger. Very tricksy.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
You know what I had for lunch that was healthy and yummy. Raw snap beans and grape tomatoes with light dressing. Snap beans are awesome.

One candy bar or one missed exercise session never made anyone fat. It's the habitual candying up, and not swimming that's gonna hurt you. Choose the thing that's going to keep you away from the bad habit.
This is such good advice. When I was on this diet back in 1999, I started "supplementing" after nine months of being really strict with it and losing 80 pounds. Two years later, I had put on all the weight I had spent that year losing, and then put on another 50-60 pounds in the four years since. All because I threw in the towel and went right back to my old eating and not-exercising habits. That's what I'm kicking myself over now.

Shit I Did Not Say:
No, I cannot provide you with [ridiculously obscure piece of technical information about a particular product]. Why? Because it's a stupid question. Nobody needs to know that. Nobody *wants* to know that. So stop calling people and asking fucktard questions and just go back to playing "Minesweeper", 'kay?
Fucktard.

Lunch today was really good, and really basic--just a cold chicken breast with pineapple and shredded carrots, vinegar-y cole slaw (which kept on dripping on my peach sweatshirt, damnit!), and rice pudding (not bad, considering I was never a fan of it before). Oh, and some crackers, too.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
My fave snack at home is baby carrots & snap peas in non-fat Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is Teh Bomb.
