Houston, I Have a Problem

As many of you know, I am HOPELESSLY addicted to cookies.  But this addiction goes so much further than cookies.  I am addicted to pretty much all desserts.  I love sweets.  My sweet-tooth is VERY demanding.

When I see a plate of cookies, or a freshly baked brownie, or chocolate cake, or a happily colored package of candy, my sweet tooth comes to life!


How can I possibly do anything but obey?  Unfortunately the end result of this is that I get food babies very often!  Until eventually, my frequent food babies ceased to be frequent, and started being permanent.....Here is my proof.


I am able to devour piles and piles of food.  You might even say MOUNTAINS of food.
.....but.....alas.....

This has to change.  I am tired of being at the beck and call of my appetite!  It rides me like a slave driver!  It looks something like this....


So I have decided to go on a diet!  And I will be totally awesome!!!  I plan to lose 40 pounds!  Which is a lot...I think.

Anyways, I mentioned it briefly in my last post....but here is the badge to my new secondary blog to track my diet progress!  I don't expect any of you to care so much, but anyways...if you want to follow along on my journey, and don't mind a lack of pictures or humor, or if you want to get to know the person behind the blog a bit better, feel free to check it out. =)

  3. I used to be seriously addicted to sugar-- it was pretty bad. I think it was exacerbated by the fact that I worked in a grocery store and had easy access to cookies and brownies at all times of day. I eventually cut out the sugar from my diet and lost the 30 some pounds I had gained from it. My advice: drink plenty of water. It really helps.

  6. But carrot cake doesn't count. So pile on the cream cheese frostings because the carrots (in name only) balance that out!

  7. I lost 30, but took over a year to do it :-P But you can totally do it!

    Eliminating sweets as much as possible (if not altogether) will make a huge difference.

    Just don't let your man bring any of that junk into the house!

    A lot of guys actually find women who can eat attractive. The junk in the trunk is an added bonus.
