Competitve eater no more!

I once thought I could shut down a buffet. Put Kobiashi to shame! I used to joke with my old roommate that I wanted to be a professional competitive eater since apparently I was already in training. Now, let's just say I can hardly, if at all, finish what is on my plate. Slightly disappointing, yes. Completely wonderful, hell yes!!

I still have an infatuation with all things pasta and saucy. Somedays I can't help but be a total carbohydrate whore. They love me when I'm enjoying their starchy goodness, but in no time they leave me hunched over in a bloated state of regret. It's amazing how my body can't hold near as much as it could 3 months ago. Believe me I try to stuff it and am sick after I do! No more experimenting how many trips to the buffet line anymore. I now experiment with vegetables and whole grains.

I had my 17th week weigh in yesterday at Weight Watchers. I am proud to report that I am down 2 lbs this past week. Since May 29, I have relinquished 42.8 lbs. I am only 72.2 lbs away from my goal weight. Sounds like a lot but doesn't 42.8 sound like a lot also?
