I am mad at myself now. When will I learn I can't keep cookies in the house?! Sometimes I can have one or two and stay within my calories but today it didn't work. (I logged it though so it can stare me in the face!)

Now, the weird thing is, since eating all of those cookies, I am hot! I feel like I'm going to start sweating. What is that all about?

    Calories are energy. Energy is heat.

    I get really warm when I'm digesting large amount of food.

    Don't feel bad. Log it and move on.

    My guess is hot flashes. When I was having them eating was trigger to flash.

    I think you're right.
    And while I am at the age for hot flashes, they have happily passed for me. I think it was all the sugar. yuk!

    Good for you for logging!

    I tried bringing a trigger food in the house with similar bad results. That's ok. Live and learn. I may try again in 6 months.

    I started young, had an intense year (lots of sleeplessness, hot flashes and weight gain...mostly emotional eating) and now things seem calm! (and working on the weight loss!)
