    I caught them on sale at Wal-Mart, and they are decent sized, but not near as thick as catfish.

    Thanks for the advice! I didn't think it would be that much work. I just thought some milk, egg, flour and oil would do the trick.

    :eek: How do they stuff all that in one little burrito? That must be some rich sauce...

    I try very hard to shield my eyes from fast food nutrition information. :)

    <b>Mr. Mooch</b> - some of us like diet drinks better. (which is good, or else we'd be in even more trouble than we're in) I just wonder why they and, say, fried chicken don't cancel each other out. :(

    <b>Antisonic and drapg</b> - wow, you guys have some discipline! Don't think I'll ever be able to diet like that. Though maybe I should.

    Lunch today - from the cafeteria at work, nachos, a bit of pizza, and a cupcake. Bad Isabel. Should have eaten a salad but didn't think of it... too tired and hungry again, and just got in line and ate what everybody else ate.

    Dinner today - at an official work function, fettucini and chicken. Not very good. Will probably end up eating something else small later on tonight.

    I am probably one of the world's biggest health nuts. Annoying to most, but satisfying to me. I've been eating this way for years, and I truthfully enjoy it. I don't like eating fast food or at restaurants. Haven't done either in years.

    Well, I had discipline. I've put on thrity pounds since having knee surgery last summer. "Taking it easy" for a month planted some really bad habits.

    Anyway, the dieting's not the hard part. I still eat loads of food, just without a lot of calories. It's the waking up at 5 a.m. to work out that sucks, but trying to fit into a pair of my how-the-hell-did-i-ever-get-into-these jeans has worked as a decent motivator lately. That and the dreaded return of Spring Break.

    Tonight was mexican food from the place where Amalias used to be on Highway 6. Average at best, but full of laughter. I **** you not, the description of chile con queso on the menu was as follows "Enjoy this delicious treat that will malt in your mouth."

    The words Cheese and Malt should not be used to describe eachother........... and having an asian waiter in a mexican food restaurant kind of dulls the mood...

    For dinner last night, I finally checked out Central America's contribution to the fried chicken world...Pollo Camponero, on Bellaire Blvd. near Chimney Rock. Got there at 7:00 (after the gym...what's up with that??).

    The verdict?

    It sucks. After all the hype I was expecting something better. I won't go back.

    If you want fried chicken in Houston, Frenchy's beats the crap out of Pollo Camponero.

    I made a Valentine's Day dinner last night (Mrs. giddyup has to be out of town tonight) of Salmon steaks, asparagus, mashed potatoes, and I picked up some Tarimatsu (SP?) for dessert.

    Yummy with a bottle of wine. The romantic mood was ruined by my 1YO rubbing applesauce in her hair but that's okay.

    25 pound gain after appendectomy freshman year of college.

    1 year before divorce, I ballooned up to 275...I was eating my way out of unhappiness. 6 months of Atkins and 5 days a week of 1 1/2 workouts and I trimmed down to 195. Signed divorce papers and got rid of an additional 150 pounds of ugly fat. :D

    I know, but I've been trying to forget about the area after spending eight years surrounded by Spurs' fans.

    Dinner last night:

    6 Jerk wings from BW3
    Regular Buffalo Chips with cajun spice
    A few beers

    Tonight will be a hodgepodge of our favorite things to eat, since it's a special day and all:

    Popcorn at the movies while seeing Old School
    Cheese fries from Outback afterwards
    Brownie Desert at TGI Fridays
