JUST SAY NO!

JUST SAY NO!  Take it from me.  They are not worth it.  I figured since I was pretty good at this weight loss thing by now that one little box wouldn't hurt right?

WRONG! It doesn't matter if you are 1day, 1year, or 10 years at your goal weight - there will always be those things like Girl Scout cookies to remind you that you do not, in fact, have self-control.  those damn cookies are in control!! 

Samoas and Thin Mints arrived on Tuesday and I got this sudden calm feeling that cookies probably shouldn't give you.  I decided NOT to open them until the evening when joe got home - mainly because I know that if I open them now, there is a slight chance he will not see them at all.  And then what man can respect a woman who inhales 2 boxes of cookies in one sitting?

I did manage to save them for a while, but when my super long appointment with the Gas company was all in vain due to a lock with no key - I figured it was NOW ok to dive right in.  Being that I was saddened and needed a samoa pick me up?  Sadly, I  reverted back to my childhood instincts of SHOVING 2 or 3 in my mouth in a 3 minute span of time.  Luckily for me samoas come in those tray thingys.  Its easier to stop after you've eaten the whole row.  I think I just had 3 and headed back to work.  Just goes to say that the battle with food or weight will never go away!  There will always be things like Girl Scout cookies in the way of your skinny jeans.  I recommend a big HELL NO to the cookie pushers!  (even if they are actually cute little scouts)

JUST SAY NO!


Update for those who care:  There is still one tray of samoas left and there are still 1/4 of the thin mints.  OY VEY

A little pudgy lately? AHA!

Hello friends!  and sorry blog for neglecting you lately..

I wanted to jump in for a minute on an AHA! moment I just had.  (dont sue me oprah) 

Have you been feeling a little pudgy lately?  I know I have.  That little voice inside saying "work out, work out!" has been harassing my mind for weeks now!  While I still plan on filling my bike tires Saturday AM, I think I figured something else out.  AHA! I know why the pudgyness feel - Probably the 2 sodas I have been tossing back daily like water!  Enough of that, not only do carbonated drinks make you feel bloated... but Coke and Diet Coke are known contributors of the deadly cellulite disease. 

So instead of listening to that voice and feeling bad for not working out - I will sip on waters and give dirty looks to the cold sodas in the fridge.  I bet in a week I will feel less pudgy in these jeans!  WOO
