Hi, My Name Is Christy...

And I'm addicted to carbs and sugar.

Seriously, it's ridiculous. If I want to lose this last 6-7 lbs before the wedding, I'm going to need to step it up. Lately, all I want is pizza and or pasta. And skittles - I'm addicted to these, thanks to my coworker...

It's amazing that I haven't gained any weight with the carb and sugar overload lately. Why can't I crave salads like I used to? And why is it that the already made salads (that are way overpriced) that I buy taste so much better than the salads I put together myself??

Starting tomorrow (let's be honest, I already failed for today - I had some of the above skittles, a piece of dark chocolate and a piece of pizza for lunch), the eating like crap stops.

Has anyone tried riced cauliflower? I keep hearing this come up - if you know about it, fill me in, please! Cauliflower is one of my favorites.

And how do I curb sugar cravings? Any other suggestions??

Just Another Day At The Office

Hi guys. I used to blog, but now I just plan my wedding.

Anyway...

100 Loves post #3 was 7 things I love about my job. Honestly, these days, I'm a little irritated with my job situation... so I am choosing to skip that one.

Speaking of the work place, let's talk about office ettiquette for a quick minute. Apparently, the people I work with don't know what that is.

Here are my 10 commandments for the office (I'm sure I can come up with more than 10, but I will leave it at that for now).

1. Thou shalt not have LOUD PHONE COVERSATIONS about personal things. I don't care that your baby daddy is a deadbeat who doesn't pay child support and is now in jail for stealing your credit card. Really. And neither does anyone else.

2. Thou shalt not belch and giggle about your farting contests with the person sitting in the cube next to you. Seriously, this happens. It was so often that my boss could hear it in his office down the hall (and these people sit in the next aisle over) - he had to call their boss to ask him to talk to them about "having a little class."

3. Thou shalt not clip your nails at work. EVER. Gross.

4. Thou shalt not bring your kids to scream and yell and run down the halls on your day off. Why are you coming to work anyway when you have the day off??

5. Thou shalt not go without caffeine. Putting up with your bitchiness is not part of my job description and I don't get paid enough to do it.

6. Thou shalt not eat other people's food. Just because it's in the community refrigerator, doesn't mean you have permission to take whatever you want.

7. Thou shalt not heat up something in the microwave that the rest of will have to smell all afternoon.

8. Thou shalt not sluuurp your soup. I have an extra spoon if you need it.

9. Thou shalt not dress like your ready to work out. I know we have a "business casual" dress code, but you are taking it a little too far and forgetting the "business" part.

10. Thou shalt not pass off work that's is clearly yours onto others because you don't know how to do it. Ask questions if you aren't sure, but I'm not doing your bitch work simply because you're too lazy to learn your job.

Ahh... I feel better.

Today is the last day of my work week. Have a fabulous weekend, kids!
