Fat Class Recap 7

Lets start with the stats. Absolutely no weight change. Surprisingly, I'm okay with it. I seem to be experiencing a pattern with big losses then none. And since I am down 20 pounds in 6 weeks - I am oh kay!

Ginah got the video to work. She put it on first. That is, after she harrassed Paulie a little more about missing class last week because THEY canceled on Labor Day. Grrrrrr. Then she left the projector on for the remainder of the class so we could see the windows logo projected for 90 minutes behind her while she was back on the overhead projector. Here's another thing to mention about the overhead technology. The proection is never focused and the information is always blurry!!! This class might make me thin. But, it will make me blind in the process.

I want to introduce you to the drinker. She sits behind me and apparently cheats a lot. She once admitted to Ginah that she had a glass of wine and Ginah fussed at her. On Monday she confessed to me that she still drinks....she just doesn't tell the teachers. The drinker says she doesn't nearly drink like she use to. Now she just has a glass or two of wine every other night. She also confessed that she cheated more this week than most (it's good to know she's consistent in her cheating) and she still lost almost 2 pounds. I'm guessing that may have reinforced her behavior some. The drinker regularly announces to the whole class that she can not wait to drink again.

Jed leads a discussion on cravings for crunchy foods. Ginah mentions a recipe for crackers. I have, of course, made it and interject, saying they really don't come out as crackers. Jed ask if I can bring food regularly and wishes he could eat at my house. Apparently, he is not a cook at all. And when he attempted to make the soup, it came out as "a big bowl of slop.". And he went on to say, "It was like dishwater!!" It was suggested and strongly encouraged that I bring soup crackers for next class. I really don't need extra work, fat class mates.
