stressful day, and food is not the answer
Ha, once my mother made a pie and somehow used ajax cleanser instead of flour in the crust. don't ask me how such an idiotic mistake could have occurred. I don't recall this pie - may have been before i was born - but can you imagine how horrible that was? might make you never eat a pie again. my mom was not the greatest cook so i learned to cook at a young age because i wanted to have good stuff to eat. while i got to be an expert cookie maker (not a skill i use any more) learning may way around the kitchen has served me well in improvising low cal low carb items that are good. But no ajax as an ingredient. diane
p.s. i have the long strong fingernail gene but have to cut them off to do ceramic art.

Hey Jackie -- Excellent post!
I think God often takes care of us when we make stupid decisions like buying cake when we know we shouldn't. One day years and years ago, when I was still a raging binge eater, I had taken a big sheet cake to a party. It was only half eaten, so I brought the rest home, looking forward to a wonderful binge. Got out of the car with it, the plate collapsed, I dropped the entire thing in the driveway ... and the dog ate it in one big gulp! Not one crumb left! I just stood there in awe and wonder and said, "Thank you, Lord, *sigh*."
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

ooh, I hear you on the raging binge eating - used to just plan it, especially when something bad was happening.
feeling stressed? think to yourself "now I get to have....cheetos! cookies!" bah, now I am not anywhere near as bad although I still fight the fight.
and speaking of the dog, one of the things I aspire to is taking care of myself as well as I take care of my dogs. I don't let them eat crap, so I shouldn't either.

once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.
PM me if you are interested in either of these.
