Last night when I fixed dinner I thought I was doing a good thing. I saw Rachel Ray fix some turkey meat balls. I had ground turkey out and thought I could fix that too. So I put an egg, some bread crumbs, some spices in the ground turkey and made them into balls. I put them in a little olive oil (or as she says EVOO!) and fried them up a little. I then put a little butter in the pan then added some mushrooms and then some brown gravy mix to it and let it all simmer for a while. Rachel made mashed potatoes with it so Darla made mashed potatoes too, with little red potatoes (I heard they are suppose to be better for you, I don't know why, they just are suppose to be). It all turned out pretty good, maybe ol' Rachel knows what she's talking about!
So I tell myself - PORTION CONTROL!! Yea.....and the disease part of my brain, the fat girl side - she was screaming DIG IN!! Guess who I listened to?!?! I had to, the fat girl side was strong arming me, so I dug in! Actually I only took 3 meat balls and they aren't big. But when I got to the potatoes then "stupid" set in. I took more then I should have, thank goodness I didn't make a ton of those! Okay, so 3 meat balls and a little more then I should have taken on the potatoes, not horrible....THE FIRST TIME AROUND!! Oh gosh.....the fat girl was screaming "do it again" I listened damn it!! I took 3 more meat balls and LESS potatoes. I was so full I wanted to throw up. Why do I listen to her? She always gets me in trouble and makes me feel miserable. I hate her!! Sometimes I wish I could hire a hit man and get rid of her!!
Sad thing was, I did pretty good for most of the day until dinner time. Sure glad I'm not getting on the scales until July 6th!!
Have a great day...
