Dinner on the road

I am eating, alone, at an Outback right now.  Writing this post.  I don;t know if that is cool or sad.

It's cool.  Not a lot of people are okay eating out by themselves.

Also, they have the best coconut shrimp there.

I never minded eating alone. In fact, I kind of prefer it to eating with business associates.

Are you having an awesome blossom?

[DownSouth]

Get cheese fries.  they have great ranch.

I usually prefer to travel alone.  If it's only an overnight I don't mind having company too much.  It doesn't bother me at all to eat alone.

I am having this and a steak.  Wonder why I weigh so much,  ohhh breeeaaaad

Oh man, I forgot how good their bread is too!

[ReBurn]

When I travel alone I usually get takeout and eat in the room. I get so bored in restaurants when I'm alone.

I miss bread. And sugar.

I was pretty religious about using the hotel's exercise equipment when I was traveling. Plus it helps pass the time.

Are you diabetic now?

Fighting my ass off to not become diabetic. I'm borderline and the doctor says if I lose weight I can probably delay it. My blood sugar is usually between 112 and 117 in the morning. 120 gets me into the danger zone.

My clothes are getting too big. They must be growing.

[Alice]

My mom is starting insulin soon. 

I need to lose these 25-30 lbs stat, and keep them off. 

[Jessie]

That diet they put you on when you're diagnosed with diabetes really makes the weight fall off.  Take care of yourself, Reburn.  I like you, even if Catchr thinks you're annoying.

Not to completely derail Info's thread here, but giving up the excess sugar hasn't been as hard as I imagined. It's to the point now where I prefer diet drinks and water to sugar-sweetened ones. The bread has been much harder for me. I still eat portions of whole grain breads, but I miss yeast rolls. I'm supposed to be tracking my weight, but every other time I started doing that it became about the scale and I would quit. So I'm not going to weigh myself at all. I'll let the doctor tell me where I am when I go back. Having to intentionally poke holes in myself three times a day is both annoying and expensive.

This is supposed to be me, but I am trying Xenical first.

Where you at?

[Infobahn]

Where you at?

Santa Barbara.  Newport Beach over the weekend, somewhere after that.

[DownSouth]

My blood sugar got up to 119 before I went in the hospital.

[Gamplayerx]

It never occurs to me to go to Outback.

[Jessie]

We don't have an Outback here.  I think I've eaten at Outback twice in my life.  Once was in high school, and once was with ignom after his dad's funeral.

"The egg wash and deep frying preparation process of the Blooming Onion makes it massively caloric and high in trans fats. A single Blooming Onion with dressing has been reported as containing 2210 calories and 134 grams of fat."

[Gamplayerx]

That's impressive.
