random indications of progress

[Guest guest]

Well, I don't know if it's progress or not. On the one hand, I had several

oatmeal cookies for breakfast, small homemade cookies, but still.

On the other hand, it is the season where you can buy bags of black jellybeans

at Target, and two days ago I bought one, as well as a bag of Cadbury mini-eggs

for my husband. Two years ago at this time I was on WW and ate something like

four pounds of them, duly counting every one, and I wouldn't have Cadbury

anything in the house. Now, so far I have had, maybe, six individual jelly

beans, and like three of the mini-eggs. They are both miraculously

out-of-sight, out-of-mind (well, the mini-eggs are gone now thanks to my

skinny-ass husband.)

Then also, I went to the grocery store to see what could be had for dinner, and

I saw some green beans and was all " I MUST HAVE THOSE GREEN BEANS " . Being

vegetarians we eat vegetables but green beans are not on the standard rotation

for some reason. So I bought some and steamed them up and we had them with some

fake gravy, and they were quite good.

I just thought my disinterest in jelly beans relative to green beans was kind of

funny. It's certainly not something I would have anticipated.
