Ok so I didn't gain, but I didn't keep the 2lbs I lost as of Friday off. I was 202lbs (so close to the 1's) at the pre turkey but this morning I was 204. It could change throughout this week - and I do have to get my butt in gear. I feel sad. I feel tired. I feel that although I controlled myself with the turkey dinners - yesterday I went off with Rice Balls. They are heaven. I had 8. Yes, they are deep fried, rice with egg and cheese - I don't know how to describe it but I was down and out for the turkey count and couldn't eat any more. I was more than stuffed like a turkey.
All I can say is that I really wish I had Mike to talk to right now. I miss him so much. I have found another office covered by OHIP which is helpful I just have to get a referral - the thing that sucks is that its like I have to start all over. What a waste. It still doesn't seem real. That is how I feel right now, started last night - I don't know why - maybe because I am tired from all the turkey and hate the feeling of being so full now - it just leads into a somewhat depression. Who knows, all I know is I hope this feeling passes because it is crappy with a CAPITAL C.
As for my Turkey dinner on Friday night, I had the best co-host anyone could ask for who did basically everything. I mean, unbelievable. Thank you and serious shout out to Baby Momma! From the fabulous turkey to the fabulous cupcakes (what!what!) to the amazing brie and black current sensation - the best turkey dinner ever. To those who joined, to those who cleaned my kitchen using my bath towel to dry dishes and reorganizing everything to make it make sense - I thank you. To those who pulled out the drill at 11pm and started putting up my picture of Audrey - thank you thank you thank you - gotta love a girl who can work a drill! Also, for bringing chairs since I ran short...everyone who was there who made me feel loved and full of thankfulness and made me laugh so hard I almost peed my pants 5 times. For all the wine, laughs, great food and amazing company - thank you all for coming and sharing my favourite holiday with me. Saturday I had a birthday dinner at the Olive Press in Oakville - the most incredible salad I ordered - after having some leftover stuffing and corn for Brunch while standing in the kitchen. Ok, some Brie too. The salad though was chicken and goats cheese and was amazing - it had this thick yogurt tzatziki dip for the chicken - well that is what I used it for - phenomenal. There was a snack table back at my friend's house and I nibbled on a few items but nothing crazy - I was full. Sunday, I went to not "Phony" anymore sister's house and had an amazing time with his family for a lovely and delicious lunch / dinner. Editor's Note: Progress has been made, details may or may not come later with not so phony anymore...but all I can say is this man has an incredible heart and puts up with a lot from me. That was very meaningful to me.
Then of course for my best friend's birthday, plus the most incredible turkey dinner - home of the rice balls, delicious turkey, stuffing and everything else - I went into a turkey coma about 10 minutes in. I had to go off and lay down for the rest of the evening...not pretty. I am surprised I didn't gain 10lbs just over the weekend - but I am ok with being the same as last week.
Oh That Feather.
