I don’t want to know what my cholesterol-level is. I can only guess that I’m at least 5 pounds over what I was last time I looked and that was a while ago. I have decided not to stop going to great restaurants and not to stop enjoying food but that I don’t have to have the braised, deep-fried, sugary, fatty foods that I haven’t consciously avoided thus far.

BUT Here’s what I had to eat today! The day before bouncy castle for sale the diet (of sorts) starts… Egg McMuffin (I AM ASHAMED), lots of coffee and a kick-ass cruller, a Bismark (jelly-donut), Long John Silver’s Lobster Bites (research of sorts), and braised short-ribs with tons of roasted garlic. You know that Homer Simpson noise where his tongue lolls out of his mouth. Yeah. That’s me. Lucky there’s no ice cream in the house.

…I did get a blueberry kringle.
