THEY MADE A DW DVD!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!

I am just rejoicing all over the place and jumping up and down and if Target doesn't have it I may have to hold their CEO for the ransom of their carrying that DVD because I NEED to own it as soon as I can, I'm getting on the bus on Monday and getting my DVD. I'm so excited!

In other news, blast my mother. She sent me Easter candy.

While that is sweet, I love her for thinking of me, especially since I was really depressed about not getting to play Easter bunny for the kids or spend my favorite holiday with my family and so this little gift basket with tiny toys and candy was a darling thought that cheered me up momentarily.

The trouble is I am now working at my computer with candy available. And if I'm working, I eat.

I've been good, I've lost weight (considering the fact that when I was last home I had gone up nearly a full size, I finally panicked enough to be good, but I can now almost fit in the clothes from before vacation). I didn't let myself buy anything but cereal, milk, and egg mcmuffin fixins. I did not let myself have junk food. If I was working, I made myself eat wholegrain crackers instead of anything sweet. But I can't take having my favorite candies available, especially since I have a bizarre obsession with Peeps and I'm still lonely about Easter and so the sentimental part comes into it, too.

Just make your candy last a long, long time. Have one Peep per day, and nothing else. You can eat four or five small pieces of candy without completely dying, really. Moderation is the key here.

Lol, thanks. I'm trying to be good--I have at least put the things across the room. It's the absentminded consumption of 16 oz. of jellybeans while I'm working out a plot that concerns me--it's happened before. ;) But thanks for the advice.

My biggest weakness is Reese's. Gawd I just love those things! Of course, anything chocolate goes and if I can keep chocolate outta the house, I'll do good.

*sigh* Why can't chocolate be good for you?

[akazaam.livejournal.com]

chocolate and peanut butter together, d3efinitely a weakness.

HEY! PB is healthy! it's made from peanuts, right? ;)

I fully agree with the chocolate being good for you thing...

I've eaten waaay too much lately...I just lost 10 pounds...I do NOT want that back...

Plus I've eaten almost an entire milk-carton-from-school-shaped-box of whoppers...

Lol...Designing Women. Eighties sitcom. Used to be on Lifetime, and I am addicted, but have no cable, so this is THRILLING.

I feel your pain...

I know what you mean about the candy being readily available, Katina. It worries me because I'm getting a lovely little carb-pooky because I've had to cut back on tennis to make room for AP study time and college-o-rama and I eat when I'm bored or stressed or studying... heck, I just like to eat. And I love carbs. It's bad. I didn't eat any vegetables today at all - I had granola for breakfast, spaghetti with alfredo for lunch, and waffles for dinner. Agh! Bad me! And I can't have candy in front of my computer either because I just eat it absentmindedly. More carby goodness. I need to balance my diet - majorly.
