E2L Detour: Christmas Love!!

Yes, my loves. Junk food extravaganza!!!

I am typing this in Greensboro, NC, my belly bursting with Mexican food, Christmas cookies, coffee, and other very non-nutrient-dense items. For the last three days, I have danced the evil dance with all the junk foods I could find. Bread has once again entered my life, temporarily!!! It started with pretzels and Dramamine in the car (16 HOURS one way!!!!) to stave off the car sickness. It progressed to Christmas cookies, flavored creamers, chips and salsa, and all manner of "white foods." I have eaten enough bread products to knock me out!!! It's been a great and happy Christmas visist with family though!


I did manage to work in some healthy stuff: I ate several salads, Ezekial bread sandwiches, and fresh fruit for breakfast. We took a great walk on a snowy golf course and I see-sawed with Brad on an old see-saw, swung, and climbed the monkey bars. I also made up a workout in the hotel. An ipod full of mellow music to combat the "I've been in a car for 466788 hours," my pajamas, and the two stairwells at the end of our hall! I spent 35 minutes traversing the hall, going up and down the 5 flights of stairs at each end. Good workout, and I felt relaxed too!


It's been such a great visit with new family, and the ch-ch-cheats on eating have been mildly entertaining, but boy am I itching to get on my yoga pants and scamper to that gym for a big sweat!! I hope you all had a great holiday...time to start thinking about resoultions!!!

I checkout your postings a few times.
I am with you my holiday binging began with BLah "buggles" of all things. It was then Baklava (sp),a tasty little treat that sent me spiraling, eatting everything sweet, salty, and chocolate. Thank goodness for veggie trays.

Curious what E2L means.

Happy New Year

I know the feeling! I've eaten nothing but white flour and sugar, sugar, sugar for days. I feel kinda imbalanced, and I've not even been cleansing yet. Glad you had a great Xmas!

Ahhh Christmas is definitely a time to indulge in anything your heart and tastebuds desire without a second thought. Life is short - enjoy! Sounds like you have been having a tasty and wonderful time!
