*Headdesk*

So I was just over at the grocery store on campus and gave in to temptation to buy a package of “Wow Chocolate Chip Cookies.” They’re wheat and gluten free, moist and delicious.
The bag is 227 grams in total, a serving is 30 grams for 140 calories. So dumb me…I divided 227 by 30 and thought wow, a serving is 7.5 cookies and only 140 calories, that’s incredible. So I ate 8. Yep, 8 cookies. Only to think that something must be wrong with this, the cookies are far too good for so many to be only 140 calories. And to realize that there are 7.5 SERVINGS in the damned bag, not cookies per serving.

I just ate 4 servings of chocolate chip cookies, at 12 grams of sugar per serving.

OMG, I have no calories left for the day.

*Bangs head on desk, repeatedly.*

And now I feel kinda bloated…. :-P

Well you know what they say, if it tastes good, spit it out as it must be bad for you. LOL! Oh well. Tomorrow is a new day.

LOL...that is absolutely something I would do!

But it's nearly Christmas and calories don't count at this time of year, right????

Eight little cookies! Are you kidding me? I'm going to my Tue quilt group's Christmas party tomorrow. One lady's bringing a Costco 4-layer chocolate cake. It weighs 7 pounds. I'm taking choc covered cherry jello shots. Ten other people are coming and bringing things. Eight cookies....please....that's like bird seed. I'll be in a carb coma before I can drive the two miles home. Then up all night with a caffeine high.

I probably would have eaten the whole bag, regardless, so you're still ahead of me.
