The Burrito!



Recommended Posts

First, ill start by saying I'm ashamed.

Second, I'm still a fat person what do you expect?

Sunday evening I made homemade burritos for my family. I always make a ton of food so I made 2 full casserole dishes. Everyone ate, got full and there were two remaining burritos. I shared one with my toddler so I ate about 3/4. Don't judge me. Anyhow, I wrapped the two remaining burritos in foil and put them in the fridge. I made myself very clear to ALL my kids that NO ONE is to touch my burritos. At this point I have clearly forgotten that I'm a bandster. But, I went ahead and threatened em anyway. Now keep in mind, I'm 36 years old and I have 4 teenagers & a toddler under 2. They are 19, 17, 15, 13 & almost 2. So I have to keep a close eye on my foods because these kids are animals when it comes to eating. They all take sports and they are ALWAYS eating. Someday ill write a blog all about my grocery bill. Ok back on subject.

So, its midnight and I'm still awake. If I'm up this late then I start feeling all snacky. I'm laying in bed and its totally dark in my house. All of a sudden I see a faint light in the hallway. Its not the hallway light. Its the refrigerator light! Ah hell no! I sneak down the hall, go left to the kitchen and peek around the cabinet. My son is taking a bite of my burrito! You can guess what happened from here right? Needless to say I wrapped my burritos back in foil and placed them safely in the refrigerator. Next day its lunch time. Yaaay me I get burritos!! Heat them "both" up ( minus one huge bite) and begin to take my tiny bites. Obviously I'm full before I finish the first one so I stop eating. My son is home on his lunch break. He's starving. I have 1 and 1/4 burrito left. I can't eat the rest but I'm protecting them like a lioness protecting her cub. I tell him to make a sandwich and chips. In the end.......I let him have the burritos! I need a fill! Lol

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
