A Small Success

Today’s entry will be short. For one. I’m tired. And two? I’m braindead. Because I’m TIRED!

I had almost NO sleep last night. I felt like I’d drank a pot of coffee right before bed or something? WIDE AWAKE.

The plus side to that is I got to see Charlene Yi’s “serenade” to her exboyfriend Micheal Cera which was HYSTERICALLY hilarious… I couldn’t stop laughing. I was afraid I was gonna wake my WHOLE family up.

She starts off by saying she wrote a love song for her exboyfriend. She figured what better way to win him back than to write a love song about him and invite him to the Conan OBrien show where she will sing it to him. Conan asks if he’s there.

She says, “Gawd, I hope so?”

Then she looks out into the crowd and points out a complete stranger and says, “This is for you. Oh yeah, I didn’t write any words because the truth is, no words could express for how much I miss you!”

That in itself was funny haha. But it’s one of those “you had to be there” to appreciate how funny it was. BUT THEN…she proceeds to sing no, NO .. not SING.. cuz there are NO WORDS TO THE SONG! She HUMMMSSSS her love song while jamming on the guitar.

Ok maybe that’s also a location joke.. as in YOU HAD TO BE THERE. If you find it on video somewhere, I think you will laugh your butt off, SERIOUSLY!

BIG PROPS to Charlene Yi! For one thing, she rocks the guitar. And two? Great sense of humor.

Anyways, other than that… no sleep… more late night t.v. then a bunch of tossing and turning. Then wide awake at 5:00am where I proceeded to continually talk myself OUT of getting up and going for a jog around the park or something else equally constructive.

Yeah, you read right. I talked myself OUT of it. I know! Just shoot me and put me out of my fat misery for gawds sake! I do not deserve to be skinny. Not with THIS attitude, anyways!

On the plus side? Here are my results for yesterday!

*I was only over by 34 calories! *

yayayayayay! Whooo hoooooo!!!! Not bad!

My only bad choice yesterday?

Salami.

Turns out it’s not as low in calories as I thought. So no more salami for me, dammit!  3 pieces equalled 204 calories. Not a salami sanwich, peeps! Just the salami itself. I COULD HAVE HAD A LITTLE DEBBIE’S STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE ROLL for that amount of calories. Geezzzzz! 

I tried to do a healthy antipasto salad type of thing with the fancy lettuce, salami and an avocado and what do I get in return? 265 calories worth of poop! AND… a feeling of having an empty stomach!

Oh well, live and learn right?

On the plus side? I had much healthier snacks than “12 beers” hehehehehe. And they were yummy! 

A queso fresco and avocado sanwich. Filling and YUMMY! And healthy too!

Hey Twinkie,

I'm glad you're having fun. But remember brewskies are not part of the food piramid.

Its a good diuretic if you want to clean out your kidneys but I hate to have to go like Russian race horse every two minutes ; real fast!

And you know what they say: Alcohol preserves everything, except dignity.

I love a 14 steak, thats two bisteks del siete put together 'cause one is too thin,con salsa to make it a bistek ranchero.

But at my age I think about food and I gain weight. So I'm stuffing myself with rabbit food.

I just read that a study by the University of Chicago shows that one grapefruit a day can help cure cancer.

And it is also good for losing weight.

You cut one in half and stuff it in your mouth. You will not be able to put anything else in there.

Bon apetite.

 

 

HAHAHAH...  You're too funny, Net...

and I don't know WHY I would type "sandwich" unless I was drunk. which frankly? I probably was. LOL 

Hey Twinkie,

As I mentioned before you look great. Unlike my girlfriend who eats and drinks (beer) like a marine who is going on 10-mile hike.

I'm not saying she is fat but I took her to the county fair and they wanted to charge me for booth space if she stood in one place too long.

I still love her. I get love by the pound.

The queso fresco and avocado "sanwhich" looks good. Some of us, and I know I'm being silly, call it a taco.

Speaking of tacos. I'm a meat eater, card-carying canivore, but I know I shouldn't be. So I make vegie tacos.

You already have the basics, the queso and avocado; to these you can add mushrooms. Either fresh mushrooms or sauteed in olive oil, (even lite butter is not as good as olive oil), then add a bunch of alfalfa sprouts, maybe some fresh sliced onions, tomato and your favorite chile. Its not a taco until you add the chile.

All of the above are loaded with vitamins, dietary fiber and are low cal, and by the way they are considered high in satiating and fullness factor (you feel full so you don't crave any more or overeat.)

Instead of lettuce, which is literaly void of nutritional value but it adds bulk, use fresh spinach leaves.

Spinach is loaded with vitamins and minreals.

OH and as a sidenote... And BTW? Isn’t Charlene Yi really beautiful? WOW! I never really noticed until I saw her interview a few nights ago. Why she “dresses down” I have no idea. I say let your hair down, put some mascara and lip gloss on and hot damned woman! You are smokin’!

OK so obviously the picture above isn’t the best example. LOL since she’s making a silly face but seriously.. google charlene yi and you will find a more flattering picture. Now look at her facial features…. BEAUTIFUL
