Who ate my sandwich ?

So, I'm sitting here with a Rueben & a large fries. Eating, reading, posting......next thing I know, it's GONE. All of it !!!!

When I was drinking, eating was a chore. I'd bever finish anything and most of my calories came from booze.

Today, even at 140 lbs soaking wet, I can consume a 1200 calorie meal, and actually enjoy it, savor it. And want desert.

Sobriety Rocks.

Same thing happened with my lunch today! I had a basil chicken dish from the Thai place downstairs - it disappeared!!

I love food too - and yes, it's wonderful to enjoy and savor every bite.

I bet your sense of humor wasn't so sharp when you were a drunk was it?
Your witty personality that shines through!

140lbs??!! Man, I wanna be that thin again;-)

I had two cheeseburgers last night. OMG did they taste good. I'll be paying for that for the next two weeks. But yes, food tastes so much better in sobriety.

A Rueben is

On buttered Rye Bread....
Layer well drained Sauerkraut
Slices of Corned Beef
Top with Swiss Cheese and Russian Dresing

Grill until cheese melts

Usually served with Dill Pickle Spears
and exra dressing.

You can use Turkey Breast
if you don't care for Corned Bee



I'll take a Cheddar Cheeseburger + Chocolate Shake please

I am hungry ALL THE TIME now. Weird thing is, I weigh less than I have in oh, bout 10 years! I never had dinner when I was drinking...dinner was a bottle of wine and a few beers. Now, at 10 at night, I'm laying in bed wondering what there is in the house to snack on!

I had the BEST onion rings today! :-)
