So, let me first just say, I am by no means above a good binge, however, when I see progress, I am more inclined to stay on track! TODAY, I noticed that there's a Cinnabon just two blocks away from my gym. I Really wanted one, Ugh:/ BUT I didn't get it. Yesterday, I noticed that someone one really wanted a cookie and everyone was all, omg have a freakin cookie already! Well, um can someone tell me to have a CINNABON....HA! I'm over here day dreaming about it's icing glaze...FML
Go get one and split it with me :P
I don't know I'm very much if I want it I'll have it. 1 isn't going to kill you, but if you have no control and need like 5 more...then I'd say NO, and kick you. lol
I figured it out for me if I crave chocolate I'll eat a mars bar, it has so much sugar in it that 1 will kill the craving right off the bat!
Lol...ohhh Cinnabon. I have only eaten a few cinnabons, and they're pretty fantastic. Even when I didn't give a HOOT about calories or fat or anything of the sort, I felt like cinnabons were deliciously naughty treats.
But actually, Cinnabon isn't the ABSOLUTE worst treat that you could have. According to caloriecount.com (the calorie counting website I use), there are 730 calories in a classic cinnabon. That's a heck of a lot, but it could theoretically be squeezed into a daily calorie allotment if you reeeaaally wanted it for a very special treat. Especially if you split it with a friend. Considering the calorie counts of other desserts, fast food junk, etc...it's pretty middle of the road.
Ok first of all you people are crazy!! I WILL NOT SPLIT A CINNABON!! Lol cinnabons are not for sharing! But seriously, I could work it in to cheat day but I had no idea it was over 700 calories, damn!
However, I do like the candy bar idea, that could kill a craving fast with less calories...Maybe i'll look to see how many calories are ina pilsbury cinnabon roll. NOT THE SAME, but close!
LOL OP, I loooooooooove Cinnabon!!! Luckily there aren't any of them near my house, but there are two ice cream places on my way home from the lake I jog/walk and there are 2 ways I avoid going in there and getting 2 scoops of cookie dough with an extra helping of whipped cream:
1. I don't bring any money with me when I walk, whenever I bring it with me, I end up spending money on food (and for a broke fat girl, that's a lethal combination
2. I whip out my phone and add the "treat" to my daily calculator and once I see my calories, sugar, carbs go up, I just keep on walking. This usually helps me avoid treats (usually. Sometimes, I just go for it!)
MMMMMMmmmmmmmm Cinnabon..... i miss Cinnabon so much, the closest one is about 140 miles away from me and when i lived in Utah the only ones were in the airport so I really haven't had one since before I moved to Utah in fall of 2003.
Cinnamon gives me a horrible sore throat after eating it and Cinnabon is one of the few foods that I am willing to deal with the sore throat for a day or two after eating.
I once figured that a cinnabon with extra frosting and a glass of whole milk was an ENTIRE days worth of WW points for me. All the one around here closed... probably for the best!
Stronger than a CINNABON!!!!
