I use sanitizer all the time. I never get sick either.
I use it a lot too, in conjunction with frequent hand washing. Hand sanitizing is the policy at hospitals and doctor's offices, so I'm on board until I hear different!
See? Bry is on my team.
Sorry sis, I differ with you here. Traveling through Mexico using public restrooms with no running water - yes I will use it. Washing hands a lot, sure. Medical /doctor setting around people with sickness sure. Daily life? No way. Soap and water works for me.0 -

I ate a bunch of chocolate XLAX once thinking they were chocolate. I was a kid. Yes, I had the WORST diarrhea (yes I had to look up how to spell that).
When my mom was 10 or so, one of her older brothers made her and their younger brother brownies and put ExLax in the mix. My grandmother left and made him take care of them. Good for her.
Definitely good for her. Ick.0 -

I don't like Thin Mints or Peanut Butter Patties.
The peanut butter oatmeal cookies taste so much better than the patties. I prefer Thank Yous for my chocolate fix.
I like all of those cookies you listed but no Caramel deLites. I abhor coconut.
I confess that I did not buy a single box of GS cookies this year.
Me either. I haven't in years. I did get roped in a time or 2 on friend's kids, and put them in the trunk of my car til I could get them to my Mom. I won't touch them (unless I read an oreo thread, and then obsess about oreos, then find out they are vegan (thin mints) and eat a whole sleeve of them. Oh wait...I did that Monday.0 -

Confession: I confess, part of me did my 1RM lifts on Wednesday just to prove that I'm NOT old.
I confess I've worn the same pair of work pants three days in a row.
I wore the same jeans every day last week. No shame. I'm a desk jockey.
I will wear the same work clothes 2 days in a row if I am not going to see the same people and I am feeling lazy. I do change my underclothes. 0 -

Actually, wasn't this a confession early on too... about people deliberately bringing in food to work to watch their co-workers eat it while they abstained? Especially the ones who were always talking about dieting?
That can also be a symptom of an eating disorder. Anorexics love to cook, and will make everybody else eat while they abstain.
I think I do remember that being confessed earlier and starting a big discussion about eating disorders...
I will buy things that have gluten in them and give them out at work. Like putting kit kats in my candy dish. There is no chance I will eat them but they are there for other people.

Also I've gotten really lazy about exercise and I haven't done anything in about a week. ._.

You mean 50% success, right?

I can't wait to eat some of the Easter Candy I bought! I have a bag of the Brach's Spiced Jelly Beans & two bags of the Cadbury Mini Eggs.
I did slip-up on Tuesday & eat a whole bag of the new Easter Sundae M&Ms, & to be honest they weren't worth the calories.
The only Lent goal I have stuck with so far is the no ice cream until Easter.
Good luck on your half marathon @rungirl1973!0 -
I confess after laughing at the girl who said she fell off the stationary bike & fell into the pool backwards that I almost fell off the treadmill dancing when my favorite songs came on my Spotify playlist.0

Because Friday is their day to pick. We ended up at Zaxby's, where I ate grilled chicken. I still want pancakes or muffins or something like that.

I work at a hospital. Some days I think all of the germs are migrating to my desk. I use hand sanitizer because it's handier and actually dries my skin out less than the soap in our bathrooms.0 -

This is why I pick one thing and stick to it. Although I really considered giving in today...I prayed myself out of it though.0 -

How's that for confessions Friday?!
Peanut Butter and Jelly and Cheetos? And milk? That just sounds so gross.
I think you misspelled delicious.
nope, totally no delicious in that sentence.
You don't like pb&j's?
i love PB&J. Its the cheetos/milk in combo factor.
Eh. I haven't eaten Cheetos in months, and I bought a bag because they were less than $2 and I remember eating pb&j with chips and a glass of milk when I was a kid. I also like putting potato chips ON my sandwiches. I enjoy the extra crunch it adds.
Salt and Vinegar chips on a turkey sandwich? De-fricking-licious!
I do not understand this. Why not just eat them on the side? Do they not just get all broken up in the sandwich?
I used to eat chips on bologna sandwiches. I like crunchy food. All the crunchy food. :-)
Crunchy is definitely my favorite of all the textures. Extra crispy fries, extra crunchy chips, super crispy chicken, crisp apples. Yes, please ALL OF IT!!!
I love Ruffles on bologna sandwiches with extra mayo ( @LBuehrle8 that's for you) and lots of crisp iceberg lettuce.

Good going in planning your meals and knowing what keeps you on target. There is nothing wrong about being satisfied in your commitment and being able to stay on target.0 -

Of course. I really almost ate 2 QB's last night after checking my macros. I didn't, because my fiber would have been 49 grams
and thought I'd better not push my luck.
It's okay, you don't have to give it to me.
The one day after looking at my Fiber count I had around 84 grams .
I confess that 2 months ago I bought some quest bars in case I was low on fiber I could fix it, and Wednesday I could have used one but did not have it in my work bag.0
