John: I'm home. Cannot *wait* to eat breakfast.
Me: Awesome. I'm starving too.
John: I didn't eat anything yesterday at the hospital except a bagel with my coffee.
Me: So you haven't eaten in over 24 hours?
John: Yup.
Me: How does that even happen?
John: Well I got busy around lunch time so I thought I'd eat at night. But then dinner time came and a new patient was brought in so I didn't have a chance to eat. Then my hunger went away, and I just kind of forgot.
John: I don't know, babe. Just didn't think about it until this morning when I realized I was starving. Making french toast now with bacon.
Me: I see... (complete and utter confusion on my end)
This week has been a complete clusterfuck of stress and anxiety for me with too little sleep and too many people pulling me in a gazillion directions. When I'm stressed, or anxious, or any other intense emotion felt by the human mind, I eat.
And as hard as I've worked at the gym I recently joined (more on that next week), I haven't succeeded one tiny bit at this thing called dieting for the past seven days. Friday night I even caved and made pizza:
Hoping to kick off next week with a renewed sense of faith in this whole weight loss situation. That is of course, until I depart for Dallas Friday night and spend four days with John.
Maybe he can teach me a little bit about this whole "forgetting how to eat" art I seem to not understand.

It's like forgetting about time. When I'm drawing frames for a cartoon, or just reading a good book. I can forget about time. And I can forget to eat. It's wonderful to be that hungry.
Have LOTS of sex with John and then eat, and then have LOTS of sex with John again, and repeat the rest of your visit! Workout and eating = WIN-WIN! :) And don't lie, you knew you were outlining a penis! hahaha!
Ah! There was a time when I was a few hundred years younger when I could muster up sufficient concentration on a task that I'd forget everything else--even eating. Not anymore, though--now the first thing that goes through my head is, "Is it time to eat *yet*?" Have fun on your trip, Gorgeous!
You are surely not alone Annah because I do the same thing when I am stressed about anything. I snack like crazy knowing it is not right but I do it anyway. Hope your sweet hand feels better by the time you get to TX. Sending blog love from the great state of NC.
I took a lot of health and nutrition classes in college (yet I was a music major, go fig...) and eating less than 1,000 calories a day will actually make you GAIN weight. Your body shuts down and goes into starvation mode. When that happens, anything you eat turns into pure fat.
Just play smart. Lay off fried shit and sugary drinks. Lots of water, lots of high fiber foods, lots of exercise.
Oh, and pacman pizza isn't bad for you. It's a whole lot better than anything fried, that's for sure.
Sorry about the dick-burn. :(
Ouchie, your poor hand, don't forget to put some burn cream on it, helps a lot. And no worries about caving in for the pizza, you'd have to have an iron will to never slip. A little sinfood every now and then is needed, the guilt will make u extra motivated :D
I forget to eat sometimes. It's just one of those things. Just like you have to pee, but you can't because you have to do something else so you forget. And then it strikes later ten times worse.
It really sucks when you forget to eat. Padawan has to frequently remind me.
Oh, I'm totally pizza's bitch. Can't be helped. I just can't quit pizza.
Fred: I just have to keep working at it.
Yvonne: I LOVE your plan.
J. Franklin: I understand what you mean. Especially with chocolate and such.
Odie: I'll be sure to write about it and take some pictures.
Lost: Dick burn. Bahahahhaa. I love you.
Little redhead: It looks terrible! That picture doesn't do it justice, really. It's all bubbly and nasty and it hurttttts.
Chanel: I guess if I wasn't so used to eating all the time out of stress I would stop thinking about it. Kinda like reverse psychology on my stomach.
Caprice: And homemade pizza is the best... Hmmm with prosciutto ham and mozzarella/parmesan. Worth the burn and everything.
Hope the sudden injury to your hand doesn't affect your work too much, whore. I know hj's probably generate a lot of revenue.
Oh wow look at that Anon Love. If you're going to call someone a whore at least have the balls/vajayjay to admit who you are.
Anyways...16lbs is nothing to make a sad face about! It's awesome.
I as well don't understand the whole forgetting to eat. I did when I was a teenager but now I get insanely moody (read: bitchy) if I'm hungry. My body doesn't allow me to just forget anymore.
16 pounds is loads!
I'm proud of ya babes :')
I know what its like,I promised to myself I was gonna eat healthier starting this summer and I do nothing but 'nomnomnomnnomnomnnomnom' all day long!
especially with pancakes(or anything really!)with lashing of nutella on them :')
Lovely!Hope your boo boo gets better soon!
Much Love,*virtual hugs-and-kisses*
H xoxo
I laughed out loud at Lost.in's Dick burn comment. Burns are the WORST! To get a burn making pizza you know you shouldn't be eating is just plain evil. No weight loss plan is ever going to work if you don't allow for a cheat now and then. You are doing great. As for forgetting to eat...I wouldn't need to lose weight and hit Zumba 3 times a week if I forgot to eat now and then! Do me a favor and pray for me tonight that I forget to eat!
I just don't know why it has to be so hard!!!
D:
You are surprisingly deep sometimes.
very...
Interesting...
Forget to eat? Never happened. Not get a chance to eat? Happens all the damn time. What's worse is when I eat breakfast around 8am, then eat lunch/dinner/something around 4pm, then by the time I get out of work at midnight I'm starving again. It throws my whole body off.
In other news, I wouldn't be too upset about 16 pounds. In a couple months, you've lost more than I have in over a year! Remember, slow forward motion is still moving forward.
FORGETTING TO EAT??? Only skinny people do that. I must have eaten that ability with my last pack of Milanos.
If you learn, please take pictures and notes and make simple drawings so maybe I finally get it ;)
16 lbs is nothing to shake you're penis burnt finger at, it's actually really amazing!
next time you get a burn, get real aloe from the plant, cut it open and slather away. it works wonders. :)
I don't forget to eat.. I'm essentially too lazy to eat sometimes. Which, is good because you'd think I'd lose more weight. But bad because then my body is like, "Bitch- you need to eat or we will eat you" and then it's just bad. And only once did I ever hear my thunder thigh talking to me and that resulted in a Coldstone Creamery trip that ends in a fuzzy haze and an empty half gallong bucket on my coffee table. :/
Looking forward to hearing about the Dallas trip
Sex is an excellent work out. So I hear anyway for those lucky enough to be getting some.
3 things:
1) Forgetting to eat is easy. It's helped along by lots of coffee and/or cigarettes. Also if you drink a lot of water you can forget to eat. Happens to me all the time.
2) If you work out, it doesn't matter what you eat. Actually, if you lower your food intake you lower your metabolism, so just keep eating what you eat and work out, like, 3 hours a day.
3) Sex and water diet. That's all you get. Need I say more?
Tell us about the gym.
Your penis burn looks painful.
You can do it sweetie, some time you just level for a week then you start to lose again.
I wish I could forget to eat sometime.
If you want to lose interest in eating, work in a kitchen. You'll be too exhausted and tired of seeing so much food to be bothered with it.
I was going to say what Jessica said...you can burn an insane amount of calories in Dallas *cough cough*. I lost 20+ lbs last year on the all-sex diet.
It's shaped a lot more like a tongue than a penis -where's the helmet? Where's the ejection (ejaction?) port?
NP Odyssey: Hoping to FINALLY go to the aquarium this time around. Let's see if John can make it out the house.
wagthedad: Sex and water diet? You should seriously write a book. Can it be sex and wine diet? Sounds much funner I think.
GourmetK: Maybe it's time to get a part time job at McDonalds. Too bad I've already applied and they're not hiring. DAMN ECONOMY!
hi Annah, i follow you like its my relgion. :) i absoulutely love your blog. i came across Alice Pyne through my blog last night and would REALLY like for you to go find her blog and then maybe make a small post so that your follower will too and maybe raise awareness on her behalf. it will only take a moment of your time i promise.
at least the penis outline isnt in or around your mouth lmao jk
Girl, 16 pounds is GREAT!
My weight has been a roller coaster for as long as I can remember. The only thing that'll get you through is discipline and dedication.
Keep it up! I'm rooting for you :)
Psst, Anonymous - they're called 'handies' now - just want to make sure the phone sex operator knows what you're talking about the next time you call.
