i could be wrong on the pam calorie count... but it is substantial enough to add up... maybe it is 1 second is 7 cals.... and 1/4 second is how they get away with the "calorie free" labeling....
my point is still tho, that hidden cals are everywhere.. and though for some, those things dont matter, for others, every calorie counts, kwim?

Oh, it's hunger all right. Your suggestion to be prepared is good instead of raiding my food cabinets to see what I might like at 2 a.m. To be honest, during times like this no amount of anything I eat short of a full-course meal will satiate me - I think it's a sugar-low thing, too. And I agree that to allow myself something, even if it goes over my daily calories, is better than binging.

I may prepare an "emergency" supply of something high in protein for those just-in-case moments during the night. Then, once eaten, know that that's it, no more food, so go to bed. :club:
