**Nighttime Nesties**
Anyone around tonight?
Re: **Nighttime Nesties**
Yeah, I'm really glad that DH decided to stay over on the west side of the state tonight. He normally would drive back home, but it was way worse over there than it is here...
I'm here just sitting by the fire, drinking a glass of wine, watching the snow and watching the biggest loser!
I hope your DH makes it home safely! And soon!

Yea. We are out in Howell and my drive home was from East Lansing to here. Took me an extra 40 minutes. DH has to drive from Commerce to Howell.
Im sitting here watching Biggest Loser and eating home made chocolate chip cookies and feeling guilty about it. Thinking I should be on the treadmill instead
I'm here feeling guilty about getting takeout for dinner. I have been eating really badly since Thanksgiving ugh. Must put down the food.
I am about to watch Glee instead of do homework haha.
Hope everyone makes it home safely.

hahha, i feel this way every week, when I watch the biggest loser! Oh well!
I really worry about the drive to work tomorrow. Fortunately I don't have to go all that far (about 10 miles, no highway driving) and Ann Arbor keeps their roads pretty nice. But that doesn't protect me from the other idiots out there on the road...

I feel the same way, it's like I can't stop eating crap!

I'm watching Biggest Loser too while I eat ice cream!
Does it make it any better that I measured out my ice cream and counted the points for it?
Aside from cooking tacos for dinner and cleaning up that mess I have done nothing but sit on the couch messing around on the computer and crocheting.
Its addictive. I read a blurb the other day in a magazine that said they did a study and eating foods loaded with fat prompts your brain to release a marijuana-like chemical making you feel high.
I just keep telling myself tomorrow I will do better but I haven't followed through with it yet...
That sounds like a pretty good evening to me!

All that matters is you count it! I did not count my dinner...
I believe it, but my problem isn't fat... I eat too many carbs! I am sitting here eating rice chex out of the box. I love bread, bagels, cereal, chips, ect... I need to stop!

Carbs are my downfall haha
What are you crocheting?
hahaha, i feel you... My mom keeps lecturing me about eating a low carb, high protein diet and I just can't do it... I would probably be a heck of a lot healthier, but I just can't stop eating carbs! They're delicious!

My mom calls carbs poison haha
I think everything in moderation is the best way to go.
A scarf but I think it's skinnier than I want so hopefully I can crochet some type of border once I'm done. I'm new to crocheting so it's nothing fancy!
I agree completely. I would never want to completely deny myself something that I want... I could never completely eliminate carbs from my diet... It's just not possible!

Those chips are delicious! I also LOVE the hint of lime... YUM!

Yeah I knew better than to buy them but I ran in the grocery store hungry and that's what always happens!!!
That's the worst! I hate going to the grocery store when I'm hungry.... I always end up buying crap that I don't need!

Grocery shopping with DH is my downfall. He is no help when I am trying to not put junk food in the cart.
On a side note, you should go see The Muppets. It was such a fun movie especially if you are/were a Muppets fan.
I won't let DH grocery shop. Made that mistake once but won't make it again, that's for sure!!!!
I really want to see the Muppets!!!!!!!!!!! I rarely go to the movies though.
haha, this is one of the main reasons I don't grocery shop with DH. I do pretty well when I'm on my own... but it seems like things just catch his eye and he wants to try them!

Go see it! It was really cute!
This would explain why I'm always so spaced out. And all this time I was simply blaming it on "Mommy Brain"....
