I did the drive of shame home this morning and stopped and got a sausage biscuit at McDonalds.

Megan, I haven't done McDonald's since banding, but I'll never be able to pass another one w/o thinking of the "drive of shame". Too funny!

[donali 57]

UNLEASH THE snack MONSTER!

OUCH!!! lol

All of you banded types, please note the difference ALREADY in calories consumed:

Megan: 856

Donali: 1496

And Megan is battling with the SNACK monster! lol

Oh where, oh where can my little band be???

And I'm STILL hungry... **sniff**

Of course, 700 of those calories came from Cookies and chocolate, so I shouldn't be complaining.

For 700 calories, I could have had:

16 cups of steamed broccoli - or -

2.18 cups of chili - or -

2.24 servings of lasagna - or -

3.88 cups of lowfat cottage cheese - or -

9.58 cups of BUTTERED popcorn popped in oil... - or -

5.69 LARGE pears - or -

14.28 CUPS of diced watermelon - or -

5.6 LARGE apples....

Sigh...

[New Hope 37]

Donali, go for the 14.28 cups of diced watermelon. You'll be so busy running to the bathroom, you won't have time to eat anything else.

[donali 57]

You'll be so busy running to the bathroom, you won't have time to eat anything else.

LOL. Now THAT'S what I call "sneaky" exercise...
