For Those That Hate Diets

If you are presently dieting and have a problem loosing weight.......well Im sorry but you probably dont need or want to read this.............so go find some other nonsensical amusement to enterain yourself.

Since this is suppose to be a forum of ramblings etc.......and with the holidays and all.........how much weight did anyone gain during thanksgiving week?

For me........thanks to my blessed grandma's chicken and dumplins plus a load of sinful deserts.......I gained 10 pounds in 5 days. I wish I could bring grandma home with me to stay.

Ms. NC has not learned the art of cooking chicken and dumplins...........you know the good kind where the dumplins are like biscuits and they taste like Lay's potato chips.....you just cant east just one.......(I had 6 helpins full)..................mmmmmmm.....makes me want to get in my truck and head to grandma's right now.


Fortunately for me I have been blessed with a high metabolism and I have lost half of it in a week but with Ms. NC making cookies and cakes up until Christmas.......the other 5 will probably stay on until January.

    NC,

    I, too, have high metabolism. Which helps me a lot since I have a sweet tooth and like to bake. Come the holidays, I make choc chip cookies from an old recipe I've tweaked and perfected over the years. I do not brag about my culinary ability but...if you like choc chip cookies, you could probably count on another 5 lbs staying on till January.

    It is strange how one person can eat all they want and gain very little weight or at least it comes off easily while others must hit the tread mill for hours to loose an ounce.

    I too have a terrible sweet tooth........fortunately my weight has not fluxuated more then 15 pounds since I was 18......many moons ago. (laugh)

    Ms. NC makes some mean deserts throughout the year...........my two favorite is her Chocolate Eclaire Cake and Peach Cobbler.

    Talk about cookies........we just had about 30 women over the house doing a "cookie exchange"..........we have trays of cookies laying around here.........my goal is to test each one between now and Friday.................yes it will be a tough job but we all have burdens to bare..............I bare my greatfully.(laugh).

    NC,

    Well, if I did the math right that's means you'll have to eat only 7.5 cookies/day between now and Friday. Walk in the park.
