Rice, is not my friend...

Remember my sushi episode??

Well... I have decided that rice is not a friend to me and my band.

(I haven't had a bad attack since the sushi but over the last couple of weeks I have noticed that whenever I eat rice.... it get's close to causing a SERIOUS problem.)

So, goodbye rice... it was nice knowing you. You were such a good friend once, but now you make me uncomfortable and make me want to throw up. I know, I know... tough words for such a dear friend... but it's the truth. Since you can't be a friend to me, I can no longer can have you in my life. sniff.

Gone, are our talks over sushi, fried rice, tofu rolls... I'll remember those days with fondness but I just can't tolerate your affect on me any longer. Consider this note our final farewell.... sniff. sniff.

I'll try to find some comfort with our other friend Chow Mein... but unfortunately I see that relationship being very limited. sigh.

HOLY COW!

Did you know that 1 Tbl of butter is 100 calories??

I didn't!

OH MY, GOSH!!! Sushi not so good on the band....

If you have ever had Sushi you know that the best way to eat it is to put the whole thing in your mouth at once.... that's what I did but obviously, I did not chew it all that well.

Thinking back it was probably bad habits creeping back. (aka not chewing well enough)

It was just a few seconds after my first bite when it struck... the WORST feeling ever. I wasn't sure I was going to "lose" my lunch or if I would be able to hang on... I was panting like a dog, or a pregnant women giving birth. IT WAS HORRIBLE. I could feel it trying to get past my band I can't even explain the feeling but it was like a burning, tightening of my chest, gurgling all in one. Needless to say, I hope that it NEVER EVER happens again.

Note to self: I WILL CHEW MY FOOD BEFORE SWALLOWING!
