Next stop Dumpsville, population me

Apr 11, 2009

I love cereal.  Before surgery on a lazy Saturday morning and afternoon, cereal was my go to food of choice.  It was so convient and easy and most of all, easy and convient.  Now Cinnamin Toast Crunch was my absolute favorite followed by Coco Puffs when I was craving Chocolate.
Well today from my Tylenol Sinus induced haze I think what should I eat.  Protein requirement have been met and I really don't feel like eating anyway.  I want Chocolate.  So I procede to fix me a nice 3/4c serving of Coco Pebbles.  First spoonful was heaven and I could eat it all while laying on the couch.  Beautiful.  I finished my pebbles and put my bowl in the dishwasher. Then my pouch makes a noise that's not that familar.  Thinking nothing of it, I continue watching my Deuce Bigalow-Male Gigaloo.  Next thing you know I'm balled up on the floor praying for death and the dry heaving to stop.  I call my mom because obviously something has to be wrong with me, must require her to make the hour and half drive to my house.  She laughs and says that's just a dumping.  Oh no, it can't be.  I don't dump.  She laughs again. What did you eat.  Coca pebbles with only 11g of sugar.  I've had more than that in 1/2c of juice.
So I follow mom's order of lay down and let it pass.  Somewhere between the last prayer and that call, 2 hrs passed and I woke up feeling normal again.
Coco Pebbbles are the devil and must be destroyed.  My pouch has yet again kicked my ass in a fight I didn't even know I had entered.  As I sit here and wonder what I did to my pouch to deserve such a violent treason-like mutiny, I can't help but laugh. Had I simply ate a boiled egg and cheese stick, all that could have been avoided. 
So now I say goodbye old friend, my chocolatey companion.  While I enjoyed you all 27yrs of my life, today we part ways.  My pouch hates you and like the tyrant ruler she is, I must obey or feel her wraith.
