Scorecard

[cjsmith]

Last Wednesday's random offering: sweets (mostly hard candies) from, I think, Brazil.
Last week's happy hour: nachos and margaritas.
Friday's random offering: nuts coated with toffee and chocolate.
Monday's free lunch: burritos, tacos, and enchiladas, with nachos.
Tuesday: I think they had bagels but I honestly cannot remember for sure.
Today's random offering: enormous sticky pastries.

I don't know why this gets to me, because I firmly believe it is not anyone else's job to change anything just because I happen to have a really annoying restriction. (Why make more people miserable?) But it's just so bloody RELENTLESS. Is this really how Americans eat? All the TIME?? Is this really how I used to eat, all the time? With my family history of Type II diabetes? Why yes, I just might be a moron. (Right now I'm an annoyed moron.)

I do realize that the frustrating day I had yesterday probably has as much or more to do with my reaction to those pastries this morning as anything else does.

I am trying to eat better, for my health, for myself, etc etc etc. I am finding it nearly impossible, there is so much (too much!) temptation everywhere.

I'm in the same boat!
