Am I sure I want to lose weight?

You know how if you're next to someone whose getting high and you're breathing in the same smoke/air you can catch a "contact-high"?  Is it possible to get "contact-fat"?  Yesterday was the hardest day yet.  The Mrs. had a big day at work then was going to meet some friends for happy hour.  That is awesome, she is awesome and so selfless all the time, she deserves to do something for herself.  I offered to drop her and her friend off so they wouldn't have to worry about driving.  Safety first.  The plan was after I dropped them off I could take the boys to get dinner.  Sounds easy enough.

Here is where my life turns into a sitcom.  My wife went to happy hour at Ruths Chris.  One of my favorite restaurants and by far my favorite happy hour place.  That's okay.  I just dropped them off out front and took off.  If I can turn my back on a steak sandwich, I can do anything.  The boys wanted to go to Red Robin.  I called my Mom and invited her and my brother to join us.  I kept telling myself "you drove away from Ruths Chris.  This is easy. Just burgers and fries".  NOPE!! Big Fat f'ing NOPE! Not Easy! Oh good Lord, Red Robin was enticing.  My Mom got the blue cheese burger,  my brother got the Royal Burger (with fried egg and bacon).  Those are my two favorite things on the menu since they got rid of that one burger with mozzarella sticks on it.  There were three milk shakes on the table, oh yeah and they brought us extra plates of fries because they were busy and it was taking so long to bring the food out.  I had a glass of water.  I almost had two glasses of water but my youngest chewed up a french fry then backwashed it into the glass.  I just looked at that cloudy mess and thought "come on man.  Thats all I've got".  It's enough to make me cry hot-salty-man tears.

I weighed in this morning at 280.  After the self control I showed last night I was really pissed that I didn't wake up with a 6 pack.  I know I didn't do a "sit-up" or "work out" or any of that stuff, but I kinda felt like my stomach owed me one.

Sunrise Juice x2
8 carrots, 4 oranges, 2 beets
fun fact: beet juice makes your pee turn pink and your poo look like a shotgun blast to the stomach. yay.

Green Lemonade Juice  x2
8 kale leaves, 3 handfuls spinach, 1 green apple, 1 cucumber, 2 celery stalks, 1 lemon.
Who do I sue about false advertising? That is NOT Lemonade.  You liars.

My brother didn't even finish his Royal Burger. IT'S CALLED A ROYAL BURGER.  IT'S MADE FOR KINGS!  I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE FULL!! YOU FORCE IT DOWN!! THERE ARE PEOPLE STARVING OUT THERE!!

My Mom was telling me I didn't need to lose weight and that I looked fine the way I am.  Thanks Mom, but while that was very sweet, that doesn't help my motivation.  Lucky for me I have my wife at home who told me "You don't look like you lost any weight".

Thanks babe.
