Temptation At The Toughest Time - Battling The Bulge

So during my vacation I put on a few pounds...it was worth it though. It has been a long, long time since I just sat around and did absolutely nothing for an extended period of time.

So now that I have been back, I am on my old workout program, etc. But last night, I had the biggest craving for M&Ms. I tried to resist it, but I could not.

I went to the store with the intent of buying a large bag of M&Ms and a gallon of milk. Yeah, yeah...how bad can you get.

I reached for the bag and then looked at the label.

9 servings per bag and 220 calories per serving.

A whopping 1980 calories....WTF?!?!

I never knew there was that much in a large family size bag - b/c like most americans, I do not always read the labels on my food.

After wrestling back and forth, I ended up getting a diet coke and a chocolate mint protein bar. Phew...and I am so glad I did....today I am so glad that I did not give in and down the whole bag of M&Ms...what a set back that would have been.
