Food Detox Update

I figure after all the complaining about detox, I should at least update you.

Let me preface my update of the current situation with a flashback. Last March, Tony did this same detox on his own. I decided it was a scam diet and I wanted no part of it and he would have to fix his own veggie junk if he was going to do this scam. So I basically ate some kids food or a snack for dinner or occasionally join him once he was able to add chicken to his veggie junk. And as it turns out, if I don't have to worry about fixing 'dinner', I'm too lazy to feed myself. Now that is special kind of lazy and I had no idea I was THAT lazy. You sure couldn't tell it to look at me! Anyway - I lost about 10 pounds just being too lazy to feed myself (don't worry, the kids didn't suffer) and pretty much kept it off all year.

So - NOW, Tony bullied me/guilted me into doing detox this Feb, and I've lost a total of 9 pounds. So when I was thinking 'I've lost almost 20 lbs this year', I was pretty pumped. I had to wear a pair of khakis from my time at Countrywide and they were positively baggy - so I was pretty proud. But that was only until I realized.... I lost MORE just being lazy than I did suffering through the detox.

Now - don't get me wrong - I'm glad all 19 are gone and I'm hoping to loose another 10 before we go to Mexico in June - and I'm glad that I'm not addicted to Dr. Pepper anymore.

I'm just saying.... you know.... was all this really necessary? Then again, if I hadn't done it, what would I have to bitch about? And we all know I like to have something to bitch about! :)
