Torture

Yesterday's free lunch: pasta in assorted sauces, with bread and butter.
Today: someone brought in Krispy Kremes and left them by the microwave.

I don't for one minute think other people should have to change what they're doing for my comfort, but my God, I never knew how AWFUL this sort of thing could be. I am getting a major education here.

edit: AND there's an Enforced Fun at the office tomorrow! Guess what we're having! Pizza and ice cream! I think I feel an attack of bubonic plague coming on. *eyeroll*

And rinse off the sauce as well? (I know of exactly one place that makes pizza without sugar in the sauce, and that place is my kitchen.)

Jay Robb, eh? Thanks. So far, peanuts are my emergency stash of choice.

This wouldn't be nearly so bad if it were a "diet". If it were a diet, I could make mistakes. If it were a diet, I could choose whether or not to stop. And most of all, if it were a diet, I could eat ten times more variety than I can eat now. I am getting *really* tired of this.

pizza sauce. damn, i always forget that part. could you request (demand?!) sauce-free extra-cheese lotsa-meat pizza?

the Jay Robb protein powder isn't awful - ericainohio turned me on to it. it's a bit weak when made with water, but if i mix it with my otherwise-undrinkable unsweetened almond milk, it's very filling and satisfying. it's sweetened with stevia to boot.

the canned chunk chicken (store brand) isn't too horrible. a little salty for my taste (but everything is), but it was pretty good on a salad. the can i had was a multi-serving size, but i'm sure it comes in smaller cans or pouches.

what's your timeframe for doing this? meaning, at what point will you say "this isn't working, game over"?

I doubt they'd be happy doing an entire pizza just for me. Well, if there's a pesto one, maybe I could peel the back off it and eat it. 'Specially good if it's got lots of veggies. I don't do veggies very well.


I wish I knew the time frame. If it's working, years; but how long to decide it's not? Not sure.
