No pictures... But sort of a bento to report

I did pack a bento today, I can paint a picture of it really easily: My Winne the Pooh single tier bento with a lonely rectangle of chicken tetrazzini. That was it. It was boring but delicious. I didn't weigh myself out of sheer terror this morning because I went to a party yesterday afternoon before the Superbowl so I completely overate... But yeah, that's my update in my attempt to be consistent.

Getting Behind on Posting but Not on Bento!

So, I promised I'd update more regularly, but school is still kicking my ass. But, I promise I've been bentoing almost everyday. I fell off the wagon three time: one day I just wanted a sandwich because I didn't feel well; one day I got lazy; one day I stayed home sick. Despite these three failed days, I am proud to say I've made one or more bento for every day I've eaten a meal away from home for the last two-ish weeks. Without further ado: My Bento!!!

So those are all my backlogged bento, and I was even better this week! I got back into weighing myself daily ^_^ I am at 201.4 lbs, which is higher than I want, and higher than I was a few months ago. But, I am getting back into the swing of things and eating healthier. I'm doing my best to pack myself more veggies in my lunches, I'm especially proud that I've been eating so many carrots. I really hate carrots, but with a cheese wedge I can eat a few and survive ^^; Also, if anyone else shares my aversion to carrots, the cheese wedge helps, but also if you microwave them in the same container as the rice at lunch time it steams them a little making them a little closer to cooked carrots, which is great if cooked carrots are more palatable to you ^_^

Good luck with everyone's bentoing! ^_^ See you next post, or comment if someone actually comments ^^;


P.S. Sorry about the really bad photos on these. I do my bento in the morning when I'm not quite capable of most human activities yet, and I only have a few minutes before I have to run out the door and drive the hour to school ><; I'm trying to take better photos, but some days just aren't for me ^^;
