your mother told you not to eat all that candy because you will get a belly ache? Well, I'm here to tell you that at 41 years of age that lesson still applies :sick:

I have been eating healthy for over 10 months and I wanted some chocolate. SO, I bought a box of Whoppers Malted Milk Balls. I love those things and I'm good about eating only half of the recommend serving of 17 pieces and then my kids eat the rest of the box :mad: :angry: :explode:

Now, I'm here at work watching a movie (work in a 9-1-1 dispatch center) and pull out the box of whoppers. Before you know it the box is empty and I'm trying to figure out how in the *&^% I did that. I'm here by myself so there's no one else to blame I guess it was me that ate the whole box of empty calories. Anyway, I figured I would be ok. I will have to work out a little longer as penence for my sin and the damage should be minimal.

OH NO that's not what happen my stomach began to cramp up almost immediately and it's to the point that it hurts so much I WANT TO DIE. :sick: :embarassed: :sick: :explode: I know this will eventually pass if you get my meaning but boy does this suck. I couldn't even tell you if I enjoyed the damn things.:grumble:

POINT OF THIS EXPERIENCE: You are never to old to remember a valuable lesson learned as a child. :laugh: :sad: :laugh:

    Thanks but I really deserved a good reminder like this one. Moderation is the key and never, never ever have more than the recommend serving of Whoppers ever again...:laugh:

    And the bad part is - you're by yourself!!! :frown: From a fellow 911 dispatcher, I hope your tummy is better, and you don't have an emergency of your own! :laugh:

I haven't had such funny dreams in years!!!!!!! :laugh: Not to mention how sick my tummy was in the morning :grumble: I bet neither one of us will be doing that again anytime soon!
