Today was another slowish sort of day. The monthly slasher flick is still here in all its glory. I wasn't sedentary today though. I did a lot of chores around the house that I had been neglecting. I then spent 3 hours trying to get my cats to take a pill. Yeah, let me tell you, even the fattest of the spoiled rotten fluff balls will turn into a classically trained ninja on the occasion that they might need to take a pill. I have some new scars, and less than half of the little beasts are done! I tried tuna, I tried cream, I gave up for the night. We will resume this battle tomorrow night...so if anyone has any ideas...?
My food was good today, but a little strange there at the end which you will see. I made dinner and I was doing the dishes as it was finishing up. I then dried my hands and made my brother's plate-which I then accidentally flung to the floor. Ah yes, the ups and downs of only making enough food. If I make more than the 4 servings that should be eaten I'll have leftovers right? If I manage to not pick at them until they are gone, or just have a second serving. It's generally easier for me (minus the accidents) to make just enough, then there is no choice to make. I instead choose to make a habit of making only enough. So after salvaging what I could of my brothers serving, I opted to have half and give him the rest.
I'm sorry I'm so boring right now! I did do a bad thing though. I got on the scale this morning...I know I shouldn't have. I really should only weigh myself once a week on Sunday. It always throws me off, but I did it anyway. My scale shows me at 4lbs down since Sunday...which could mean nothing come Sunday, but it was a boost for sure!

1 serving brown pasta: 3
1 serving chicken: 4
1 serving cereal: 2

I'm a little short on fruits and vegetables today, I barely made it to 7 servings. I meant to have some grapes but the cat thing stressed (not to mention I'm just going to be stressed out all week over not being able to really exercise...and yes I am working on letting it go!) me out and I went right for the nutella! Eek!

That the best part of having a dog, you just put the pill in some peanut butter and it's gone in seconds.
At least you are still on with your points.
I'm sure it wasn't funny at the time, but the story about you flinging your brother's plate at the door and not having extra servings to fall back on put a smile on my face. :) Thanks for sharing!!!
I can sympathize with you about trying to get someone little to take their medicine: Ramsey was recently prescribed allergy medicine, and he HATES it. It curdles his milk, so I can't get away with slipping the nasty syrup into his bedtime bottle. I've yet to find a method that works. Good luck to you!
4 pounds is very encouraging indeed! Sometimes a little peak is worth it. :)
I used to be worried about making just enough. Now I have six sidekicks and 150 lb. dog. I'm not worried anymore about anything spoiling. Instead I worry about keeping enough food in the house to feed everyone daily.
:)
I can't even keep Nutella in my house. If I come across a jar of that and some graham crackers, it's a disaster.
