Surviving the Chinese Buffet..
Well I must say that I dreamed about buffets last night.. I guess it was on my mind more than I thought *LOL* In the first dream, I dreamed that I did NOT have the crab rangoon.. in the second dream, I wanted it, and did not have it, but apparantly we brought a huge plate of it home with us.. weird dreams...
Well I woke up this morning and my ear hurt a lot.. I couldn't even touch it.. I had gone two weeks ago to the doctor and had an infection, they gave me Amoxocillian, which didn't work since I take it all the time due to the fact that I am allergic to so many antibiotics.. well it wasn't working so later I went back.. they gave me a new medicine and I took every bit of it, and I did start to feel better.. I thought it was gone.. but I guess not.. Bryan took me back to the doctor today and the doctor was pretty horrified when he looked in to my right ear *LOL*.. so he is going to give me Augmentin, which I have had before and I know it works.. I don't have any insurance, so he was going to see if he could find some samples for me.. well he couldn't so he said "Well I am going to give you amoxocillian.." and I am like "oh, I can't take that because it doesn't work anymore" and he cops this MAJOR attitude with me and was like "Well I was ONLY trying to save you some money"
Yeah, okay.. give me the amoxocillian, I will pay $50 for it, I already paid $60 just to walk in the door.. then it wont work, I will pay another $60 to walk BACK in the door, you will have to give me the Augmentin and I will end up paying $85 for it ANYWAY, so how are you saving me money?
This concludes the rant for the day ;)
Anyhow, after that we went to the Chinese Buffet.. I had already told Bryan to keep me in line and not to let me freak out and eat whatever was in site.. I gave him a description of what I was wanting to eat and willing to use the points on.. The first thing I got when I got there was one cup of white rice with one cup of chicken and brocolli over it for 6 points.. then I waited a while, took my medicine *have to take it with food* and just sat there to see if I would feel full.. then I went up and got one eggroll and only two crab rangoons.. well let me tell you that before I started Weight Watchers I could easily eat 20 crab rangoons, and at two points a piece, well, you can do the math.. but I got two.. I sat there and ate my eggroll so slowly.. making sure that I could taste and enjoy every single bite.. then I ate my crab rangoons slowly.. I really savored each bite.. and it was good.. then I went up for the last trip and got some cut up banana in strawberry sauce, then I ate my fortune cookie.. I was full... and not stuffed like usual!! But happy, full and satisified... it was amazing.. I only used 18 points, that is incredible.. two crab rangoon?? I can't even tell you how shocked I am!
I got my official test results from my PPST in the mail today.. I will give you some background on that.. it is a test you must take in order to get your degree in Elementary Education at my university.. I bascially have 4 more classes left to take, but couldn't register for them because I had not taken the PPST yet.. the reason I hadn't taken it is because I am afraid of math.. I am okay until Algebra, but Geometry can strike fear in to my heart like nothing else.. I kept putting it off.. I knew I would be great on the reading and writing.. well I finally had to take it if I had any hope of finishing school.. I took the practise tests.. had a tutor.. I really worked hard to prepare.. the night before I went to take it I was really anxious and spent most of the night lying on the bathroom floor breathing in to a paper bag.. then I threw up.. a lot.. I took it on the computer, where the math and reading scores automatically post.. the essay, however, must be sent away and read by a pannel of 6 people.. this might sound ironic, but I got the best score in Math.. I know.. I was still waiting on the essay to be graded.. but I had planned on majoring in English before, so what are the odds I would not do well on the essay?? But they would not let me schedule.. however, the results came in the mail today.. I passed.. and still did better in math than anything else.. came within 9 points of a perfect score in math actually.. so now I have to go in to my university on Monday and schedule the other classes.. I already know that one is full.. however, I am not to proud to beg the teacher to let me in *LOL* I am keeping my fingers crossed! My student loan money is tied up, I cannot have it until I schedule.. I hope it gets released or else I will have to find an alternate way to pay for it until I get my check..
I will post my food journal in a new thread.
