I'm coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs.....

Great to meet new people on Saturday. The run was nice (except for the wind!!). And the cinnamon bread!! Don't get me started! I would have eaten the paper towels they came on if no one was looking. That stuff would make ya slap yo granny!!

Did I ever tell you how difficult it is to diet on Sundays? I attend Pinelake church (The Madison campus currently being held at Ridgeland High School). Guess who is in charge of do-nuts and coffee each week? Yep! It's me!! Now I don't know about you, but I can bet that NOBODY can resist it after picking up 15 DOZEN fresh hot do-nuts in your car early on Sunday mornings. That aroma wafting through your car and by the time you get to church, you are ready to rip open a box! I usually find myself gulping at least 3-4 within 15 minutes of setting them up. But wait, the day gets better. Sunday nights, I am a small group Bible study leader and my dinner usually consists of chips/dips, rotel, sodas, and of course some kind of dessert. Now those of you that have seen and met me already should know that by my sheer size alone, I can't be rude and not eat, can I? Sundays are just going to have to be my 'free day' as far as dieting goes. Hey today, I've got my yogurt, oatmeal, pita and hummus, and fresh fruit and veggies so I'm back on the wagon until next Sunday. Then those nasty little round demons will be taunting me again in my car! Oh the pain!! Oh the humanity of it all!! Curse you Do-nut Palace! Curse you!!!

My heart goes out to you. I know how tough it is...your blog inspired me to write down what I am facing next week with some training I am coordinating. Writing it all down sure made it look as excessive as it is and may help me fight temptation -- we'll see.

It takes 12 Angel food cakes to equal the amount of fat in a single donut! Hmmmm
