10.5
That's how much weight I gained after losing thirty pounds last year. Not too bad, I suppose. Honestly, I thought it was more. After being the food nazi for so long (No Sugar! Only Brown Rice! That has too much fat! OMFGBBQ!!) I indulged in the holidays and found solace in some simple carb delights. However, I have no intention of gaining all that weight back so it's back to business. I've done pretty well so far and already dropped six pounds even with the addition of a cheat night.
Monday, I went to the movies with John and Jason. John brought me a little something back from his recent trip home.

That's two pounds of candy, my friends. TWO FREAKIN' POUNDS.
Welcome to the Idaho Candy Company's diabetes in a box.

Seriously. That's a hella lot of sugar. And see that butter toffee? It's made with real butter. (*drools*) There should be laws governing that kind of thing.
My next cheat night is going to be very nice. Thanks John!

Ha! Between my Rot Your Teeth Pie and your butter toffee, we're both on the diabetes express. Coincidentally: I also lost 30 lbs last year, and have gained just about 10 (okay maybe 11) of them back. Time to halt the backsliding (and pie is not helping!)

I completely understand your plight and subsequential dilema. I however would not have the will power to resist such a delicious box of yummy goodness. Damn my mother for passing on a sweet tooth and no will power...

Me ma makes toffee at Christmas-- with chocolate on top. It tastes just like a fucking heath bar, only better.
