Portion Control

Maybe it's because I'm a pisces, maybe it's because I'm an undisciplined American, or perhaps it's just a hold-over from how I was raised... I eat everything in front of me almost anytime I am given food and/or make food for myself.

This is why I am going back to work on keeping my portions properly sized. No more of this 1/3 of a box of cereal every morning! No more whole, 12" Digorno's pizza! No more eating the entire 1lb bag of Chicken Viola! (I am still reserving the right to eat an entire bag of popcorn though -- that is good stuff!)
This is all coming back now, because I've slipped up in a big way lately. In fact, the other day, Joy remarked that I look like I worked out a bit and drank a bit too, and by that she meant that I have a weekender's beer belly, man! That's totally unacceptable! If my girl friend is noticing this then that means everyone must notice too!! (Sorry, faulty logic is just so irrisistably fun.)
I'd be outside running RIGHT NOW if it wasn't for my great knee that is currently and only temporarily under the weather. (I have a thing against calling any part of my body a "my bad ____")
