First...I want to know who is responsible for bringing so much candy, chocolate, cookies and frosting into my house this past week. Seriously. Who did it?!
I LOVE Christmas and in the past thats meant I really get into the spirit of things and Christmas revolves around three or four things depending on who you are or your age...
First....Baby Jesus. The reason for the season, you know.
Second....Santa...the big fat man bringing presents.
Third...Family....let bygones be bygones...love and forgive and all that jazz...and
Fourth...FOOD. Cookies, fudge, chocolate, hot chocolate, candy canes, gingerbread houses....
And I embrace all four and run with them for the entire month....but not literally or maybe I wouldn't be whining so much. I mean if I literally was running then I wouldn't be so concerned with the incredible amount of sugar that I've eaten over the past 7 days. What I should have said is that I embrace all four and am waddling my way through the month...
Ha ha ha...
So I DID go to zumba one day this week. And it being the first class since I came back I totally shook my bootay like a rockstar...
Anywho...I"m working through how to have Christmas without so much sugar. It may be impossible because I can't seem to find a good solution...
So part two of this list...you remember that "in onderland by New Years" goal I threw out there to the cyberworld?
WHAT WAS I THINKING?
This seems to be a common problem in Lapband Land. Just think, if you didn't have your band, how much MORE food you would've eaten this season! That's the straw I'm desperately grasping at!!
ReplyDeleteI Love Chocolate.. sorry and not just at Christmas .. I am kind of a Chocolate year round, or like my granny used to tell me its a veggie since it come from coco BEANS right, girl??? anywhoo... I Love sugar free russell stoffers chocolate.. I keep a bag .. dont tell any one, by my bed..lol but no joke it helps when the house is full of crap at least its is not AS bad as the full blooded candy/sweets
ReplyDeleteI'm glad I'm not the only one! But I HAVE been limiting myself to just 1 or 2 versus 1 or 2 DOZEN and the scale is still going down so Tis The Season! No guilt here! After all, it took me 32 years to put on the weight, I'm not complaining about 1-2 extra months to get it off if it means still enjoying these special times and a few bites of the yummyness that comes with it!
