Unbelievable!
I really use that term a lot don't I? I should think about another
expletive to use for moments of unbelief. This time however it's red
grapes and I assume any grape actually. I've been doing some research
on grapes and the findings aren't good.
Earlier
this week I was totally blown away when my local Fresh Market lower
the price on red grapes to $.99 a pound! Usually, they have grapes at
$2.99 a pound And I for go where my favorite fruits at that point in
time. However last week Walmart drop their price of grapes but grapes
to a dollar $.99 a pound I quickly bought about4 pounds of grapes,
thinking and believing that grapes are free (in the diet nomenclature
free being no calories at all and you can use much as you want
without fear of gaining weight). Yesterday, when I weighed after my
shower I gained almost 4 pounds in the last two weeks and I was
beside myself because I thought I've been doing pretty good and even
limiting myself on some of my more favorite foods but going kind of
overboard on from red grapes from Walmart and fresh markets. In fact
this afternoon I had to pick up some Clorox for the shower and
thought I'd invest in a couple more pounds of grapes but something
was nagging me in the back of my mind. What if, just what if the red
grapes were the Reason? About the grapes home through them in the
sink wash them off and then set them up to dry or drip dry. Then I
thought wonder if there's anything on the Internet about red grapes
and weight gain/started a search. And sure enough as I read
everything about red grapes I was pleasantly surprised to find how
many good things red grapes did for you everything from possible
protection against cancer to a plaque cleanser for brain stuff and
Alzheimer's disease and the such. Surprisingly grapes are not bad
with the exception that too many grapes (and they did not say really
what too many grapes might be) would lead to let weight gain. I sadly
looked over at the sink for my grapes were dutifully drying heaved a
sigh and wonder what I was going to do with for 5 pounds of grapes
either drying on my sink or chilling in the fridge. Of course, the
answer simple stop eating. Stop putting things in your mouth just
because you're bored or just because you want something to taste
good. Stop eating! That's all I've got a new. I'm fortunate to have a
neighbor next to me who gladly takes anything I don't want to eat. So
I put one of the bags of grapes on the walker outside her door and
hopefully she got it but who knows. Sometimes wonder if people
walking through the hallways have a bit of sticky fingers regarding
people's property outside their doors. Either way somebody will enjoy
the grapes I hope. I know that I want. My friends tell me that for
pounds isn't that much but the point is it all adds up, compound here
pound their 4 pounds over a week I've just got a close my mouth.
