CHINESE, ITALIAN AND GREEK IN ONE DAY
My stomach is not accustomed to international travel such as this. 
My mother-in-law does not drive. There is no regular bus available in her home town. Therefore, she eats at the two restaurants that are within reasonable walking distanc
e.
Today, we visited a high-school buddy of my husband, and walked to a restaurant just a block from his office.
Pizza was delivered this evening (to a seven-year old boy's delight).
So why hasn't any of this international travel helped my bloated waistline?

SHOVE A FRENCH FRY IN MY MOUTH
If I need to read another menu, I may throw up.
"Eating out" has always meant one thing, and one thing only to me.
Fast food.
I mean, the drive-thru at McDonald's is not at my house, right? Taco Bell is what you bring HOME from someplace else. And Pizza Hut delivers.
But a restaurant where you sit on a chair, a waiter or waitress takes your order, a cook cooks it, it is served on a ceramic plate... well, that's not eating out. That is going to a restaurant.
And a restaurant puts together things that the restaurant feels goes together well - and it cooks the items in a manner that the restaurant obviously believes people are willing to pay for.
The last two days, everything I have eaten, someone else has prepared and I have consumed it while perched on some wooden piece of furniture.
And I am dying for some greasy, fatty, unhealthy food that is sold to you while you are sitting in your car along with a 64 oz. plastic, non-recycle able huge cup of caffeine-saturated soda.

BEGINNING THE WEEK "IN STYLE"
Sometimes the cure is worse than the sickness, right?
I love the concept of a 'clean' slate, but it just doesn't always work well for me.
I'm currently in the middle of re-doing my personal living space (read 'bedroom') - and entirely because I then would have to 
file/organize/arrange the piles of loose papers that have been hiding... well, perhaps hiding is too subtle a word for the stacks - nay, HEAPED in various mounds in every corner 
of the room.
Guess what?
IT DIDN'T WORK.
My bedroom is now strung with papers, half-filled boxes, unfolded laundry (don't ask) and cleaning supplies (if you're clearing, you might as well scrub up, right?) - and not much of any of 
those papers are in any sort of order.
Unfortunately, I am also trying to make something ELSE 'work' for me (I am not a quick learner, okay).
I have a lab order for a fasting blood test - I have to go without eating - so 
let's start off a week with a fast, right?
Yeah - let's see if this works.
Money on me eating before 9 a.m.

VISUAL IMPAIRMENT
Refrigerators can be used for a wide variety of purposes.
1. Magnets
2. Wild decorating ideas
3. Posting incentive photos that might keep you from eating 
what is IN the refrigerator
4. Posting scary photos that might keep you from eating what is IN the refrigerator
None of the above are helping - any suggestions?
