i know this is ridiculous but i have cut up some potatoes and put them in a pan to put in the oven....they covered in butter and onions and i LOVE THEM!!!! LOVE THEM!!! my B/F mom made a turkey and gave us some to take home...so it almost was gunna be like thanksgiving for me......i was sooo looking forward to them!!!! but being cut up early and left overnight now they look like brused apples (me b/f who was gunna put them in the oven told me anyways as i'm still at work)....so now i have to make normal potatoes or something as they usually take tooo long for me to cook as i'm hungry when i get home.......

i know this seems irrational but i had been looking forward to them....and made ROOM FOR THEM in my calories and i haven't been treating myself to any cravings lately and this is what i wanted to cheat on!!!!!....now i feel like i'm going to cry over stupid potatoes!!!!:sad: :sad:

i'm just disappointed and i'm just being really irrational i guess.....

    Excuse my ignorance... but you can't eat brown potatoes?

    You *should* just be able to cut off the brown. It's just because they were left out...next time put them in cold water in the fridge and they should be fine. They might turn a bit pink, but they should be ok.

    No, I totally hear that. Sometimes you just want to eat that one perfect food, and if it turns out less than perfect you just want to throw a full-fledged todler-style temper tantrum.

    I hope your redone potatoes turn out to be *almost* as good!

    I am sorry about your potatoes but I would eat them the way they are if I loved them that much

    thanks for understanding....i just think i hit a breaking point in not letting myself have ANY cheats and all i wanted was these in the momment..........


    i KNOW it's no a big deal.....it was as NoraEE said.....seeing one or two of these have made me feel as dumb as this "momment" was...i'm over it...(ofcorse)

    thanks for the supportive messeges anyways...even if it was dumb

    Honey don't feel bad. :flowerforyou: I almost had a nervous breakdown over potatoes myself last night.:cry: My sister made some with extra butter, sour cream, ranch dressing and bacon bits.:grumble: As I looked at them I could just see me gaining 5 lbs from them, but I wanted them sssoooo bad(old habits coming thru). But I said no and slowly backed away.:bigsmile:
