Snug Scrubs

I start my new job in the ER tomorrow. I have to admit I am incredibly nervous!! What if I have forgotten my work ethic? ha ha. One would look at my house and argue that yes, I have indeed forgotten my work ethic. I went to try on my scrubs and lay everything out for work tomorrow.. My scrubs are fitting a tad bit more snug than what I remember!!!! WTF? For a split second, I started to be shocked that they were more snug than they were several months ago, but then I remembered that I have not really been as good as I should have been with my dieting. A friend brought some frosted sugar cookies to Elijah at the hospital today. You know the kind I mean? The ones that are about an inch thick and then have that wonderful icing on top of them? Those cookies are one of my absolute favorite treats... I couldn't resist them. I ate two today. I have no idea how many calories are in one of those puppies, but they are pretty heavy. I guess I will just say ignorance is bliss on this one. I did get some nice healthy soup to take to work tomorrow to eat for my lunch.
I have decided to give up bread for Lent. I decided this, and then started arguing with myself as to what would clasify as "bread". I have decided obvious sliced bread, loaves of bread, biscuits, rolls, buns, etc. Definitely all count as bread. But then I thought, what about cake, cookies, tortillas (I LOVE tortillas)and pizza crust? Doest THAT count as bread? The cake, cookies and pizza crust I can probably (maybe) do without.. but tortillas???? Britt said maybe if it were just corn tortillas, it wouldn't really count as bread... sigh. It's all about sacrifice,, I guess.. so I will give up tortillas as well. I forgot and had croutons on my salad tonight, but that was before I truly defined what I was going to qualify as bread.. After all, I did eat cookies today, so the croutons were minor compared to the cookie feast. Maybe by doing this for Lent, next week my scrubs will fit a tiny bit more loosely. :)
