so I have to get back on the weight loss wagon... and I need your help.......(scroll down)
actually i've lost pounds since new year's - but not many and it's not like i've been trying (hell, between thanksgiving and new year's alone, I gained 17 pounds. no. not an exaggeration... at the moment i've shed about 10 holiday pounds off though.)
for the past month i've been on a wonton soup kick. I drive home from the train and right down the street is Rice King... so I pop in get a quart of wonton soup and the crunchy noodles... actually, at the moment I am up to 2 quarts of wonton soup and 2 packs of crunchy noodles a night....
when I walk in the door the Rice King waves at me and says "Bennett! Wonton tonight? One? Two?"...so I am known now as the wonton girl... in my head i've been telling myself that it's mainly broth... of course, I eat it with chopsticks (easier to grab those tricky wontons) and also dip my crunchy noodles with the sticks as well....
so since I am eating with chopsticks it doesn't seem like I am eating the 6 wontons per container. yes. my little mathematicians, that'd be 12 wontons and like, 150 crunchy noodles.
ex red-headed bill was IMing me last night telling me that he's only been eating 975 calories a day since january 12 and he's lost 12 pounds... now at this point I was likkered up on broth, pasta and some odd meat filling, so I really didn't need to hear the calorie counting from my ex (although it's always nice to have him write that i'm the love of his life, why aren't we together and all that stuff - will save that for another time)
so... I am going to try to wean myself off the wonton horse. pretty soon i'd be hitting the harder stuff like hot & sour soup.... or *gasp* the fried dumplings....
I DID have a salad yesterday (mixed greens, extra cucumbers, black olives, feta, sunflower seeds, sliced almonds and low fat balsamic vinagrette)... barely could finish it... it was good, but I was full... and then last night I had my wonton soup fix.
it's march 22... I have 3 months til my 35th birthday (when I can officially run for president)... I have to train for that race and also get back into my weight training program for golf (helps the swing and endurance)...
I WILL lose 20 pounds by June 21.
if I don't.... hmmmm.... if I don't, what should happen?
shave my head? hmmm nah, i've already done that a few times and you don't want me to be fat AND bald do you?
okay, it's up to you... leave a "punishment" (ie. donate $100 to charity or wear a muu-muu for 24 hours, etc etc) and I will collect those, make a poll and you can choose what the hell I have to do (nothing sexual, no permanent tattoos, no nudity)
of course, the I will only do the punishment IF I don't lose 20 pounds...
so help me out here by putting the fear of failure in my head! slap the suggestions in the comments!
this will from here on be known as:
