I am taking my kids on a trip to Washington DC this week and we aren't going to be home for Easter. The kids were a little disappointed that they wouldn't be here Easter morning to search for their baskets. Kira even wrote the Easter bunny a note telling him (her) that he (she) should reconsider his (her) schedule and leave her a basket anyway before we leave. The bunny thought that was kind of cute so she went to Target and got candy and basket stuff. After making up the baskets, the stupid bunny ate a HALF A BAG of jelly beans. By herself. Right now the roof of her mouth is gummy and she's incredibly thirsty from a shocking overdose of sugar. The bunny's teeth aren't all that great either so I'm sure that there is probably been some tooth decay but does that stop the bunny? NO! The bunny is a pig and is helpless when it comes to any kind of sugar. I wonder how many calories are in half a bag of jelly beans? I'm guessing it is a lot. I'm not going to look it up because I really don't want to know.
On the up side, I lost two pounds this week! This was before the jelly beans though, so I'm not expecting the scale to say anything good in the near future.
OMG Sarah, I wish you could have seen me yesterday. You would have LOL'd with sugar-craving sympathy, I'm sure of it. I am just like you. I can go all day with not a bite of sugar - as long as I keep it away from me, I'm OK. It's the same with white-flour-carbs of ANY kind. I was on-track yesterday (Sunday the 17th) for a perfect 1100-calorie day. Then, at 5:30 p.m., I allowed myself ONE Pillsbury Crescent Roll... WITHOUT butter, no less... and within 40 minutes I had snarfed: TWO Crescent rolls, the 2nd slathered in real butter; a can of real Dr. Pepper; a heaping bowl of Golden Grahams mixed with Honey Bunches of Oats and covered in WHOLE milk; roughly 40 square/buttery pretzels dunked in whipped cream cheese; approximately 40 Nestle Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chunks (chocolate chip's fatter, uglier cousin...); one mini-sized Snickers bar, AND a can of Cherry Coke Zero. (Yeah, what was the point in drinking a diet pop, after all of THAT?! I guess it was because I had already stretched my @#$*^ stomach out so far that I created more room, and had to fill it.)
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say...
