Thin Mints....damn you!

Okay...it is done.

The Thin Mints are all gone and I am paying the price.

1. Dumping
2. Post sugar high crash
3. Backsliding in my weightloss journey and having to re-lose a couple more pounds.
4. Anger about my lack of control and poor choices.

BUT...this is where I move forward....yes...again.

Live and learn.

Arrise, go forth, and conquer.

Etc.

I know it's not the end of the world, but I am more than a little tired of my closet skeletons making decisions for me.

Not "starting all over" tomorrow morning, but rather "starting all over" right now.

Thanks for being there, BOTTS.

With 32 cookies per box, an entire box of Thin Mints
has 1280 calories, 64g of fat, and 88g of sugar.

DOH!

ouch.. hugs... well.. hopefully was only one box and only a couple of more lbs... and not 20 or 50..

dumping - as bad as it is... remember how horrible that feels so next time you can recall that memory BEFORE you eat them.

If we were perfect - we would not need WLS in a first place...

Absolutely!!! Dumping proves to be a blessing...it sure puts the brakes on when I happen to go AWOL in my brain.

Thanks for the hugs...the support here is always amazing.

Have a wonderful day. : )

I'm guessing you did not dispose of the WHOLE box in one sitting, but boy when you really look at those hard numbers it makes you question if it was worth it...

Sounds like you've got your bootstraps on a tight hold and are pulling yourself back up...The slide is easy, dealing the the fallback isn't...Good Luck

Alesia : start 249 / surgeon's goal 138 / current 142

No no no....not in one sitting...but over a 5 day stretch. Those numbers are horrid...note to self...RESEARCH BEFORE ACTION....NOT AFTER.
A ton of fat and a ton of sugar....lesson learned....and no question about it...so not worth it.

Thanks for the support.

Happy Friday to you.

You know those little girls work for the diet people (the cookies are their lure). That's how the diet folks sell their products. (weigh****chers, nutrisystem, Jenny's, etc.)

You know the problem with that particular drug "thin mints" is the pushers. They are so darn cute! How do you resist them saying "lady, do you want to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?" Arghhhhhhhhh! I did resist last night but I sure could see myself laying in a bed of Samoa's and thin mints! LOL!

Faith is NOT believing God can.
It is knowing that God will!
