you know what? my crazy workout veins are throbbing. what does this mean? it's the crazy workout equivalency of the tingly spidey senses. and you know what they say?

were all going to be omnipresently awesome, and perfect, and inhuman specimens of healthy lifestyle and dietary perfection as of now.

GO.

Haha! You're cracking me up, ladies!

I went ahead and made a non-creamy chicken soup, just because. It's yum, and actually pretty light on calories (and starch, yay!). Back to perfection

I had some double fudge brownie ice cream about a week ago but I rarely eat sweets. I'd have to say my biggest downfall is red meat and brown rice. Sorry, I'm boring.

I've never liked Pop Tarts but I do love those breakfast toaster pastries filled with "cheese" and bacon.

I indulged today: a cupcake and a big cookie that one of my evil co-workers brought to the office. Both were dee-lish. My rationale is that sometimes you have to go off plan to get a better view of the plan.

This morning I made oatmeal chocolate chip cookies for my kids, and several globs of the cookie dough jumped into my mouth.

F.

If there is ever cake or cupcakes in the house from a birthday or other celebration, I have it for breakfast. Every. Single. Time. Breakfast of champions.

I, too, have had an infestation of jumping cookie dough in my kitchenaid before. What a scourge!

Well, I haven't had any crap food cravings lately, but I've been REALLY wanting a good pumpkin beer for about a week now. I indulged in a Dogfish Head Punkin ale tonight. Totally worth the calories. I did do a 90 minute warm yoga class before I drank it, though.

Sometimes you just have to give in to the craving. Preferably within reason.

I had a "salad" at Cafe Rio tonight. Which is basically an open-faced burrito (rice, beans, chicken, cheese, the works) with romaine lettuce added. I at least asked for a whole wheat tortilla rather than a regular, but they were out.

But hey, I only ate half! I saved the rest for lunch tomorrow.

Wow, glad to know you all are human! You lot have made me wonder sometimes......

I ate a lot of bowling alley french fries and a bag of peanut butter m&ms and then went home and had half a PB&J after because the quickie mart was closed (was jonesing for ice cream).

Sometimes I miss binge eating, but not really. I'll take instances of the munchies like this over >4,000 extra calories of sickening candy and chocolate covered nuts and sometimes the odd savory junk food item.

The other day I had candy corn and a glass of milk for breakfast. It put me over my calorie and carb counts. Next morning I was down half a pound instead of higher. There are times when you just have to live a little and let go. Candy corn is one of my favorite things about fall. You can't give up everything you love or the binge is going to get way worse than just some candy for breakfast.

The first vegetable I ate today was pumpkin butter.

Yeah, it sure gives jumping Mexican beans a run for their money!

F.

Y'all are a bunch of wankers! And the gist of it is that I, too, am a confessed hard core member of The Wanker Club.

Had a desire for something "salty/chippy" last night while I was shopping for ESTROVEN (for menopausal symptoms!!) and grabbed a bag of BBQ Fritos - "this will go nicely with my Turkey & 2% cheese wrap for dinner!" ... then I thought, hey, a nice Hershey Bar would be great for dessert... then I decided hmmmm... maybe a chocolate chip cookie would be better, then I thought "my husband sure loves Snickers bars..." and then would you look at that!- Milk Duds are ON SALE! and I really enjoy Cheez-Its so a box of that (oh ****, make it two...)

I bought over $25 worth of "junk" ... and altho I had a "healthy" dinner (my turkey wrap is a very healthy meal - and just ONE SERVING of the BBQ Fritos (that's 29 chips, in case you were wondering ) I also had TWO servings of Milk Duds...I'd have eaten the entire box of Milk Duds, but luckily I told my husband PLEASE TAKE THESE AWAY FROM ME NOW! and he did...

SO THERE. Yup, solidified member of The Wanker Club. And solidified reason why I've gained 8 lb back of the 39 I'd lost. Ack.
