I've been a good girl. Really I have. I've printed off menus with allergy information to use for Runza (can't eat anything good) and Wendy's (very MSPI friendly!) to have in the van. I grabbed Wendy's after putting in my two weeks notice at my part time job and grabbed a 'safe' 1/4 lb burger meal.
Now on my cheat sheet is says that a "1/4 lb burger with everything" has no soy and no milk. But, apparently the folks working the grill include cheese when you get a hamburger with everything and unfortunately I didn't notice until I was halfway through the burger.
How do you not notice cheese? I have no idea but to illustrate the silly things that eating on autopilot make me do, here are a few examples. In the last month I have -
-Popped a bit of cheese omlet off of my husbands plate into my mouth only to spit it in the trash as I realized what I'd done by the look of horror on his face.
- Did the usually of touching a bite of Mac n Cheese to my lip to test the temp for Alaina and having to get a wash cloth to wipe my mouth off because I couldn't lick it off.
- excitedly joined a co-worker in the lobby when Panera dropped by unannouced with free samples only to remember that I can eat NOTHING from Panera. (Sad march back to my desk akin to the 'walk of shame.')
So for a brief moment I actually debated going to the extreme of putting my finger down my throat. A brief moment I said! Followed shortly by the thought, in for a penny, I should raid the fridge and binge on milk/soy products and freeze my next pumping or so of milk.
Both thoughts were dismissed as horribly stupid.
And did you like how I snuck in that I finally quit my part time job OM? I already miss the discount that I don't use. ; )

Discount/smishcount. :0) I noticed it instantly and did a woot! Your first job is mom, your second job is...whatever your title is at your real job...and anything else is just RIDICULOUS. You can spend your new free time hunting down sales that you couldn't before because you were working. :0) All the while teaching your daughters what fun shopping is!
I already said this but.. you are doing such a great job of watching your diet. I can't last 1 minute when I vow to stop eating "?" whatever. Glad you skipped the finger down the throat.
