Tonight at 8pm I hopped onto the elliptical and watched the first 35 minutes of The Biggest Loser.  I took a short break and then at 9pm I hopped onto the exercise bike and watched the first 30 minutes of Dancing with the Stars and channel-hopped back and forth to The Biggest Loser.

Then I stopped to check my email and some other things and never got back to either show, meaning that I missed both eliminations!  Not a problem though, within minutes Google revealed brand-new recaps out there for me to read.  So I know who went home from both shows.  I can’t believe I actually watch not one but two reality shows now!  Okay, three, if you count The Amazing Race, which thankfully isn’t a typical elimination-vote-em-off-kinda-show but it totally rocks. 

The April Challenge is heating up!  Those stars are starting to fly!!!  It’s so exciting for me to watch everyone’s progress!!!

——- CAUTION !!! —– FOOD PORN AHEAD !!! ——–

Tomorrow is my daughter’s 19th birthday.  I’ll be taking her out to dinner.  I asked her where she wanted to go and she said, “Whatever the restaurant is that has that yummy dessert you know it’s like a brownie or a cookie that’s warm and has ice cream on it and then chocolate fudge sauce on the ice cream?  Yeah, that’s where I wanna go.”  I’m thinking she’s channeling Chili’s Chocolate Chip Paradise…

Or perhaps Carrabba’s Chocolate Dream…

Or maybe Applebee’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Sundae…

What really sucks about this is - regardless of where we go, she’s gonna order this thing and I’m gonna sit there and watch her eat it!!!  LOL, it’s okay though.  I won’t be tempted.  Because I looked ‘em up.

The Applebee’s Chocolate Chip Sundae is over 700 calories and over 100g carbs.
The Carrabba’s Chocolate dream is over 1500 calories and over 160g carbs!
The Chili’s Chocolate Chip Paradise Pie is also over 1500 calories and 220g carbs!

Holy Hot Chihauhau Batman!  No decadent flavor is worth going that far off my diet!!!  Nuh-uh!!!
