How do you log "cake batter licked from beaters"?
I just made a cake because I'm trying to find a good gluten free mix or recipe to use for my son's birthday cake in a few weeks. It's in the oven right now and I don't know how many servings it will make, but I figured up some preliminary nutritional info and it looks like 338 cals and 20 grams of fat! How will I survive? Cake is one of my weaknessess! AHHH!

The cake did not turn out well. I guess that's a g...
It all started with a little caramel corn

...and escalated from there. I haven't even had dinner yet and I'm already over my calories for today. Ahh! I've had such a good week! Well, we bbq-ed today as it was such a nice day and I overdid it. But before then, I had the caramel corn, almost the whole container. The sugar is too much for me, too addicting.

Well, I ended up snacking between lunch and dinner. Not horribly unhealthy thing-just some peanuts, crackers with so...

Things have been better the last few days. I've been hitting my calorie target for the most part. Plus I weighed myself this morning. I didn't intend to, but my son had pulled out the scale and when I got out of the shower, I thought, what the heck-I'll just check. Sure enough, those two extra pounds that I showed on Monday are now gone. I'm thrilled to see that. But I know that weight numbers are so weird and can fluctuate so often. But I'm happy nonetheless.I think I get more off t...

I am so tired of all of this. I'm tired of thinking about food, about logging, about worrying about my weight and feeling fat, about getting depressed about my weight. I'm so ready to just chuck it all and quit worrying about it.The thing is, since Collin was born, I had stopped worrying about my weight and food. I was so focused on new parenthood, I didn't even think about food. And I lost weight and I didn't worry about anything. And I made good choices. The less I worried about it,...
