I beat the dreaded cookie monster!!

Hi Guys.  I just had to post and tell everyone my whoo hoo for the day.  My daughter wanted me to make cookies, so me being the good mom that I am made her favorite - double chocolate with white chocolate chunks.

My whoo hoo is, I did NOT lick the bowl, spoon or any other utensil, and I have to say that they really no longer have any appeal to me.  Yay!!!  Mind over chocolate!    Maybe I can do this after all! 

A big WhooHoo for you, great will power.

WHAT DID THAT BLUE PUPPET EVER DO TO YOU!!

Heh, Heh!  He kept pouring cookies into his mouth, never got fatter and never AGED!  :-)

Congratulations as a mom I agree it is really tough..........my 2nd day on this diet and all I can think about is chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven...but congrats to you and thanks for the motivation to keep on going strong......not even licking the spoon...way to go........

caycc - funny NOT licking the spoon was the hardest part.  I have been at this since the end of March, and I can tell you that this site has helped me SO much.  Especially when I need someone to give me a kick in the pants to keep going.

Don't give up!  If you need a diet buddy, I will add you to my friends list and we can help keep each other motivated.

I think Cookie Monster has a Binge Eating Disorder.  If you watch closely he bites and chews all the cookies but then he spits them out!

Heh!  I never thought of it that way, but you are right!  I hear tell that cookies that are broken in the package do not have any calories, because the calories "leak" out when the cookies get broken.  Ahhhhh.......if only that were true the world might be a happier place!  :-)

That's impressive!! Remeber this great feeling of accomplishment next time your tempted and I will to!

I have banned that cookie monster from my house!  And I told him to take the ice cream goblin and the brownie zombie with him!  But every now and then they all manage to sneak back in!

amyrwellman - yes, I WILL remember.  There are still cookies left and they look yucky to me now (thanks for small wonders)  :-)

Jem599 - I know what you mean!  Now how do I go about exterminating the potato chip witch?  Maybe I should throw some water on her?  Well - the chips at least!!  Luckily, I am starting to lose my taste for chips too, but oh.......I LOVE barbecue chips.  They are HARD to ignore!  I hear them calling now.  *GULP*!!!!

Back!!!  Back I say!!!!  AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :-)
