I thought, after my previous post where I discussed my dyslexia I would share with you, how truly odd I am.
- I mix up numbers and letters often. I relate the sound of the number to what I write. For instance, 90% of the time when I write the number 5 as in 5 not five, I will actually write "F" Because 5 starts with F. I do this often with 9 also. I write "N" I'm strange.
- I screw up numbers bad from memory. For instance, this is how I thought I didn't lose any weight. Okay get ready because I'm actually going to admit what I weigh and you can do the math and find out what a phatso I was when I started this diet. Anyhoo. On February 15th when I weighed in I was 166.6 This meant that I had lost 14 pounds. K got it so far. Now, since I had the 14 in my head this is how the big screw up happened. When I weighed in on March 1st I weighed 164.4. Now, since I was remembering 14 which has a 4 in it, I saw the 164 and thought it was the same number as before. It took me 4 days to figure out that I was remembering all the wrong numbers. Well, since I thought I hadn't lost but hadn't gained, I decided to eat a little junk. Just to double check that I really had seen 164 on the scale I got back on. I was 165. Which means all my bread eating caught me and I gained back a pound. Sooo my weight loss to date is 15 pounds.

I do this all the time...I wrote the same check three times once...it was supposed to be 124.35 and I kept writing 142.35. Then I messed up my check book because I transposed a number and it was all sorts of off. And don't worry I wasn't paying attention to your weight stuff...the whole time I was reading that I was thinking here she is losing weight and here I am reading about it eating girl scout cookies! I need to get to the gym!
I sometimes catch myself doing something similar with letters. Like I ALWAYS write BUNZ on my grocery list, or something silly like that. I swear if it wasn't for word spell check I would sound like a preschool.
Yes, Mark probably would eat the Doritos first, but if we bought cool ranch intead of zesty, we might have a chance.
