Nuts!

I was just reflecting on my calories today wondering why they were so high when I feel like I didn't eat much. I've had 290 calories just in nuts and nut butter!

I love them all, almonds, cashew nuts, pistachio nuts (ha the movie Best in Show, remember?) and all of the nut butters.

The great thing is, is that NOW, I am aware of the calories and am watching them, where as BEFORE, I ate them freely paying no attention.

Le sigh.

Thanks for listening :)

    Whole Milk! It's the only thing I can consume on a regular basis while sick, depressed, angry, full, hungry, lazy, or bored.

    I'm addicted to fresh strawberries & blueberries.

    It's gotten really bad. I can't pass by them in the grocery store... I leave home JUST to go to the market to buy them... I think there should be a support group or something... maybe a Warning Label:

    "WARNING: Package contents can be highly addictive - please consume carefully"

    Ha thanks everyone, glad I am not the only one with an addiction. :)

    We should all be proud that we recognize our weaknesses, and acknowledge them. It takes a strong soul to do that.

    I hate this place sometimes, but I love it for the accountability factor. The numbers can stare us in the face, and it is up to us to decide what to do with them :)

    xo have a great night!
