A Partner Setback

I got through lunch - painfully!  No one in their right mind can eat 4 quarts of salad a day.  I don't want to harp on this salad thing but holy crap!  I have never, as long as I can remember, not been able to clean my plate - I was never going to go to bed feeling bad about the starving children in Africa (that sounds wrong seeing that in writing, I do care about the starving children in Africa and next week I will be packing up huge boxes of lettuce to share with them). Anyway, my point is I CAN'T DO IT!!  I cannot eat 2 quarts of lettuce at a sitting - I don't care what you throw on top of it.  This is going to be a problem.  How can it possibly affect how much weight I lose each week if I cut my lettuce intake back to 1 quart a day...???  Time to check in with the other half of Team B.
She assured me it's a filler and she believes we can leave it out as long as we don't replace it with something else - that's why I love her!  She has saved me from the nightmare that was about to occur tonight if I ate 2 more quarts of lettuce with my dinner. 
As a side note, before I praise the other half of The B Team too much - she actually had a little slip off the diet we had dedicated ourselves too just the day before.  Yesterday she had 2 pieces of chewing gum.  After I expressed my slight disappointment in her setback I told her to pick herself up and we'll move forward - no looking back.  I think she is re-committed but I guess only time will tell.
