Pop Quiz Question: What's the Worst Part of Visiting Your Doctor?

Answer: Getting your weight checked!  (If you had to think about this you haven't been to the Dr's in a while)

Seriously, if you've followed my journal for the last five days you'll notice all I've done is stuff my fat face on Holiday Cheer.
So today when I realized I had a physical you could imagine my horror...

Me: OMG, I will be getting weighed today.

Forget the worry about  high blood pressure, skyrocketing cholesterol, gout, leigion aires disease, avian flu or worse a really bad hang nail.

A silent prayer went up to St. Lucy to help see me though this trial. Then not 5 minutes later a wonderful Co-worker who under normal circumstances I would have been glad to see showed up with a bag of Tony's Doughnuts direct from the fair city of Portland.
Fire shot out of my eyes as she opened the bag and offered me a piece of fried molasses heaven. God help me I ate it , I loved every morsel. Two hours later I left for the doctors office and the dreaded scale.
I will spare everyone the details of my physical, this is a food journal not an episod of Oprah. EXCEPT to say I am happy to report I LOST ONE POUND FROM THE LAST VISIT!!!  Now I wasnt about to argue with the nurse practitioner, no siree, I hopped off that scale and gave her a huge hug and proclaimed, "It's a Christmas Miracle suckers!"

On my way home I stopped at my local Hannafords and picked up the ingredients for a Burrito nosh. 

The following speaks for itself:

Roasted Red, Yellow and Orange Peppers


+ Plus Chicken Tenderloins Braised in Chile, Cayanne, Mushrooms,  Onions & Green Salsa



+ Plus Guacamole & Tomatoes



+ Plus the Ever Important Condiments

After all that why bother showing you what my burrito looked like?  
That's like  taking a beautiful woman,  putting her in a Moo-Moo and snapping a picture of her.
How could anyone possibly see the luscious beauty hidden under the robe or in this case a whole wheat tortilla?

Sublime
