oh, this annoys me

Last week, I was not successful on my fast days. I was getting a cold and just wasn't feeling well so didn't do it.

Today is my normal fast day, I woke up feeling good, not hungry, I can do it!... I work from home, BTW.

My freaking roommate cooked bacon 30 minutes ago. I have been starving since then. I know it is my problem and responsibility, but it is so frustrating to go from feeling good to feeling so hungry just over a smell.

Part of my resentment toward my roommate is that it is my ex significant other who still lives here because he can't afford a place on his own. I have been supporting him for 15 years and am pretty done with that. we get along fine, but it is like an irritant, a pebble in the shoe type thing. He will be here till at least january, and is helping me with the animals while I recover from plastics so it is a fair trade at this point, but doesn't stop me from feeling irrate and looking forward to January when I can institute a bacon free zone, at least on fast days. :)

Okay, my "b***h" of the day. Back to trying to convince myself I am not ACTUALLY hungry and craving bacon. It isn't time yet to even have my Protein Drink, but I may need to soon.

Day #2 of bacon in the am. If you hear on the news of some crazy lady in the Seattle area beating her ex to death with a package of bacon, you will know why you haven't heard from me. :)

BACON!!!

I love my husband.... Really I do, but I want to kill him when he cooks bacon!

We actually fight about it sometimes.. :P

It smells the house up and if I'm wearing something nice it will stink like bacon the rest of the day...

And yes I want to eat it all :(

The other thing that really gets me is toast.

Warm toast and butter the ultimate comfort food.

Ever see the musical movie, "Chicago"? "He had it comin', he had it comin', he only had himself to blame! If youda been there, if youda seen it! You would have done the same!" lolol

If you really need and want and gotsta have the bacon ...

LOL

3rd day in a row of freaking bacon cooking.

Another fast day.. and all I can think about is eating bacon.

I am actually not eating that crap right now - I am getting ready for major surgery and I know that junky food can cause even immediate health ill effects. That is the reason so many heart attacks on Thanksgiving for example. Anyway, damn it.

Ok you have my permission to kill him now!

Oh wait the bacon is doing it for you.. :D

And yuck three days in a row??

I love bacon - I'm in west Seattle cowgirl - I can come over and slap him with bacon if you need any assistance! My 17 year old makes a huuuge mess when she makes bacon and so I get to see it, smell it, AND clean up all the grease - yay me. This is why I keep a secret stash of turkey bacon in the freezer - she doesn't like it and is too lazy to defrost haha.

You are a superstar in training for your plastics - I am so excited for you! I cant wait until I am at that point - still have a ways to go though.

You GUYZ!!! Did you not check out the link I posted? <_< It is made from baked coconut and my raw(ish) vegan friends who used to be mega carnivores, say it is amazing!

I don't like coconut. Probably one of the few foods I actually DON'T care for...haha.. me, the queen of will eat just about anything. But that link made me hungry...LOL. It is better to not look at food porn for a recovering junkie.

Chimera, I didn't realize you are just across the Lake from me - i am in woodinville. Once I am back driving again after my plastics it would be fun to meet some local sleevers. You look to me like you are pretty close to goal for sure!

I feel great today - the first bacon free day in what seems like forever.

And in all seriousness, even though he is my EX Sig Other (XSO for short!) - I am really worried about his eating habits lately. A story for another day, but he has fallen off any kind of wagon. He is not obese or even fat, but has other health problems that require a very healthy diet. sigh. I have no more influence over him then I did when he alledgely loved me, so I don't say a word.
