packages and pants problems

I am STILL sick.  Will this go away?  However, Dan thought I should try some exercising to see if it helps me kick this.  I hopped onto the elliptical.  For 8 minutes.  Does that count?  I’m still so exhausted!  I’m still miserable.  Looks like the blogging and working-out trend is catching on! The Fabfatties tweeted today about their new treadmill set up.  Next step is to get healthy enough to use my new elliptical contraption…

I had a few nice surprises today.  First, my new eye-fi came! Second, I got a food photography book.  I can’t wait to start reading it.  Third, Dan came home with a new shipment of Mix 1s last night!  I was so excited to have these back in the mixture.
Yum, these are much lighter than the other types of Mix 1s.  My last surprise came from yesterday’s food shop.  Dan bought me some Just Pineapple!  I didn’t even ask for it.  Dan saw that I mentioned it on the blog and just thought to buy it.  Isn’t that cute?  What should I mention on here next? Diamond necklace?  New camera? New lenses…

I could barely handle eating this apple.  So sad.  It could have been so tasty.

Lunch was small because I was not enjoying food.  Another PB&J.  I have officially finished an entire loaf of bread this week.  I NEVER eat that much bread.  Thank goodness it coincided with Nature’s Pride bread sent to me by foodbuzz.  I do have to say, this bread is tasty.  I can’t really get flavors much, but the bread has some good texture to it. 

For dinner I had a choice.  Delicious mushroom pizza that Dan made last night or butternut squash and apple soup.  I looked longingly at the pizza while I dished out a bowl of the soup.  I have to resign myself to the fact that I can not really eat.  The soup was perfect.
I am loving the rustic fall flavors.  And look-e here, today is another meatless day.  Go me!

I’d like to end this post with a little NSV bragging.  Last night out of habit I got a small bowl of ice cream.  Then, without eating any I put it all back.  I know.  Crazy, right?  But I’d like to credit that (and other similar actions) to the weight loss I saw this morning and to the fact that yet another pair of pants is looking too big.  Which leads me to a quick rant. 

Where is the sweet spot with pants, when they just look/feel good.  I seem to only have pants that go from muffin top to too loose.  I guess I need to buy more wide-legged pants. Does anyone else see this problem?
