Coming Soon - 2014

I was going to name this week’s blog – I blame this on Meryl - since she was away in Las Vegas forcing me (yes I said forcing me) to eat out or bring in Subway each night. When I lived alone in Brooklyn I had no problems cooking but with Roland creating bathrooms wherever he went I kept getting that old Cooking in Calcutta feeling so I had to do something different other than going to that new Dehli down the block. The result of all this was an amazing breakfast that I would have never had, an awesome cheeseburger deluxe with beer (it was an excuse to eat raw onions and not offend anyone) a visit to my good friend Nathan where I stayed too long, rotini pasta salad for lunch, (after all she was not there to remind me to take my salad in the morning) two -foot long roast beef sandwiches, a 900 calalorie meal Wednesday at Fridays, Swiss Cheese every night since I had to hide Roland's medicine in it and I couldn't let him eat it alone and only one day of exercise. Yes this was a rough week – all Meryl’s fault of course, but I still lost 2 tenth’s of a pound and that actually is progress. I then realized if my goal is to lose 50 pounds, then by early 2014 I should get there. So how could I blame Meryl for that? And for the first time in two years, I can’t even blame Roland.
