Soup, Salad, not so much the breadsticks :(

It was day 1 of Math MCAS today.

Mildly fun and interesting:  3 hooligans needed a special proctor over at the hooligan highschool (off shoot of BHS at a separate locale for discipline issue students), and they sent me to do it!  As I am essentially trained in reading aloud, this job was right up my alley!  Plus, it got me out of the main highschool for a healthy chunk of the day, which is awesome as a change of pace!

The other day I decided to go on a soup diet.  Soup and salad diet, maybe.  I bought a ton of soup.  Then I remembered how unfulfilling soup can be :(  It will take some real effort.  And will power.  But I gotta do something.  I have been overloading on carbs and sweets.  First day of the soup diet, yesterday, was largely unsuccessful.  Had a wake-up wrap from dunks (which I am supposed to have forsaken! woe is me...), had peanut butter crackers for lunch, then got SOUP (yay) and a half sandwich from panera for between work and aftercare (really more of a lunch), gave aaron mac n cheese and the other half of the sandwich, then had pizza for dinner.

So yes, I HAD soup, but no, that wasn't much of a diet.

Day 2, today, had a fucking donut for breakfast (no...2 donuts, but one was a plain... no better? ah well, shucks...)  A SALAD for lunch (also purchased what was supposed to be a cheese quesadilla and turned out to be--due to a last minute menu switch--a ground beef quesadilla, so my diet was saved by fickle lunch service workers and NOT my own willpower), An APPLE for snack but then also chex mix for snack...  And so far for dinner?  Couple of PB&Js.  I am eyeballing either leftover fajitas or SOUP for real dinner.  The fajita had veggies, tons of greens, but also the carby wraps.  The soup is Tomato Feta, smells divine, and could be swell... but I kinda want the fajita....

I'll keep you posted.  This was also the week that I was supposed to get up early and excersize.  Hmmm.  Nope.  I will keep trying, folks.

Meanwhile, send me your favorite soup and salad suggestions!!!!!!  YAY!!

I don't think you want my input, because my opinion is SOUP SUCKS! LOL. The only soup I like it the cheddar and broccoli at Panera, and that I don't think qualifies because I think it is more of a cheese dish. HAHA. Anyways, what time do you need to get up to exercise? I will probably be up (Z) and can text you: "GET UP!" and then a few minutes later:"I SAID, GET UP AND EXERCISE!" LOL.
