Thanks for your feedback -- I didn't give in to the craving -- and I'm feeling better.

I agree with Lilion that when I really WANT something (like ice cream) I usually give into it. But those cravings often come on more slowly. But this was like a freight train, and I didn't know if eating something sweet would help. What really helped was that I had to teach a class and could really focus on something else for a couple of hours. I came back and had my sandwich and feel more normal and awake for the first time all day.

Oh, and TOM actually started! So maybe it is a culprit too...

HAPPY HALLOWE'EN EVERYONE!!

Lilion - Here in Canada we celebrate Hallowe'en just like the US. I love the holiday!! But what isn't fun is John working all the "important" hours - from 1230 to 9pm, ick!

Well...bad news here ladies...my weigh-in said a top weight of 323!!!! NOOOO!! But I knew I had been *really* bad these last couple weeks...I knew the gain was coming. :( I think 1.5 or so of those pounds is not a real gain...so I'm changing my ticker to -16 in 7 weeks...and if ALL of these pounds are "real" then I got a challenge...nutten wrong with that! :D Have a great Hallowe'en everyone!

P.S. I'm posting a VERY, VERY silly picture of me and my guy in these insane hats we got yesterday - and sadly...yes, we DID wear them out in public, haha!! :D I will also post pics of our "cotumes" (we use stuff we already own...) later on! :)

ok . . .someone had to do it :)
