Sugar Cubes

Sugar - God has enlightened me slightly as to why I can never seem to make a diet work for me. It is all about choices (mostly my bad ones). But seriously, I have realised that the reason that I fall off the wagon during diets is because I give myself far too many choices .... and I eat too much carbs and sugar:) I know that most diets are trying to help you when they give you choices but for me whenever I'm hungry and I can't remember the choices I was given on my diet I usually just start making up my own choices. Eventually the choice between chicken or fish turns quickly into canned soup and pizza. Anything quick. So this morning, deciding that I need a healthy change, I decided to make myself an egg white omlette. Now if you know me at all, you may have noticed that I truly loathe eggs with a passion. They make me want to gag everytime I eat them, I don't know why exactly. So, today I figured I should try to figure out a way to eat them, seeing as how almost every diet going requires one to consume record amounts of egg whites. So I took two egg whites and started adding in all kinds of veggies, and without really noticing it, I realised that the egg whites had actually disapeared in the mass of vegetables I was adding.... it's like the egg was there, but it wasn't there... weird... anyway, so after I cooked it with cheese, I realised that it actually tasted really good. So this is my new plan... I am now going to take away my choices for meal times and eat a well rounded meal of an egg disguising omlette with a glass of milk and 1 piece of toast for every meal. Boring, but at least I will never have to choose what I am going to eat. The only choice I will have is what piece of fruit I will eat for a snack. I hope it works.
Cubes - In other news, yesterday I got some green and purple cube baskets to put my clothes in. This is very exciting, because I don't have a dresser or a bedroom down here and this will at least give me some things to keep my clothes from becomming a pile on the floor. Now, I can almost hear all of my close friends in Canada laughing from here at the fact that in Canada I had two dressers, two big totes and a walk in closet and that still didn't keep my clothes from becomming a large pile on the floor, but BE HAPPY FOR ME... Purple and green cubes will add a pretty and artistic edge to my pile (even if they will just be thrown on top of the clothes).

Side note - We are now watching another "Tropical Depression" in the Carribean that has reciently taken a slight turn towards south Florida.... GOOD LORD!!!! I am MOVING the heck out of here... we just got the power back from the last one... it was exciting at first, but now all these hurricanes are really beginning to get on my LAST NERVE!!!
