oink

Little Debbie snack cakes have been banned from my home. I think they make them with crack. Seriously. Even after I looked up the points (which is 8 for the two little cakes, by the way),  I still ate way too many. The first round I ate one of the cakes and threw the other one away. I know anyone reading this that grew up in the depression era is yelling at me for throwing away food. I could send it to the starving children in Africa, but they don't need junk food.  I had 4 points and I counted them. 

Then there was this afternoon.

Frustrated with my research paper, I started munching. and munching. and before I knew it, I had eaten 3 more packages!. Yikes, that's 24 points. 

But it doesn't stop there. I ate a whole plate of cheese bread at the bowling alley. The saddest part, is that it didn't really even taste that good.

Tonight the boys and their friends had a movie night at school. I hid in one of the classrooms and did some school work for a while. I thought the movie was over, so I came out. One of the moms told me that there was still 15 minutes left. I decided to walk. I walked up and down the third grade hallway for about 5-10 minutes. That will only earn me one point back, but hey, it was exercise! And, when I got home, I shoveled.

On the good side, I have had fruit with my breakfast for two days so far and veggies with my lunch once. I'm on track to complete that goal at least. I'm going to print out my inspiration picture from the previous post and tape it to the fridge and the cabinet and the computer. Tomorrow starts a new day.
