LOL! "Did I *really* just do that?!"

WOW! I just did something that frightened me after I did it. I even asked, "Did I really just do that?!"

To satisfy my sweet tooth (& finish up my remaining calories) I had a bowl of (carfully measured out) Froot Loops w/ 1% milk. After finishing the remaining Loop, I didn't finish the remaining milk. I instead poured it into a measuring cup to deduct that from my calories. LOL!

I hope someone else out there has done something like this! And I'm not crazy! haha

    I have NOT done that, but honestly, everytime I have milk left over, I always think about trying that. haha

    You're not crazy! I've done things like that. The other day I ate 3/4 of a portobello sandwich at a restaurant. And you bet your booty I'm not counting that last fourth!

    I hope you realize that you threw out the only part of the snack that was actually good for you!

    Lol, have never done that but then again can't resist the leftover milk. Did take a 1/2 a slice of swiss cheese off of my sandwich today and credited myself the 36 calories.

    I order an order of Sweet potato fries a lot at work. I take five or six fries and leave the rest for everyone else. I only log .15 of an order. Woo Hoo. I love fractions.

    You didn't put it in your mouth, so you deduct it. Makes perfect sense to me! :smile:
