Hostess cupcakes

[lbrowne]

How sad is it that just seeing the words "Hostess cupcakes" in the topic line of JimmieJo's journal that I lose all self-respect?

I've done the up and down thing with my weight. I know how great Atkins makes me feel and how many wonderful foods I eat on this wol that I truly DO prefer over any junk food....

and yet, Hostess cupcakes. That simple phrase and I don't know if I would dump them or eat several (or more) if they were here right now.

I'm doing great on the program, so where does this sick craving come from? Oh yeah... twinkies, Little Debbie snacks, spaghettios and bologna sandwiches. Childhood treats?!

Nope, not even goldfish crackers and Doritos hold any value. So again I'm regaining my resolve to try to give my kids a better foundation and knowledge to hopefully waylay the carb demons before they take hold... and hope I'm not too late.

My weakness is Little Debbie Oatmeal Cream Pies. My whole family knows not to have these around me. I can control myself with most any food except these. Talk about a sugar bomb.

LOL Bill

I hear you Linda. I still look at the stuff in the grocery store and that tug is ALWAYS there. I really hope it goes away some day.

All you can do is your best with your kids. As mine got older and into school it was harder for me to get them to make the right choices. But I always packed healthy snacks and meals. They saw all the goodies the other kids were bringing and now that they are grown, they do OK but have turned into typical teenagers and love the local greasy hang out and goa couple of times a week. They dont buy veggies when they get a snack to bring home anymore either.............. its doritos and cheese crackers. ugh

This thread could really trigger someones sweet tooth!! LOL

Re: Hostess cupcakes

There IS something really nasty in them. In the book NUTRITION MADE SIMPLE it talks about the immediate effect sugar has on the body. And....this killed me...even after just consuming 1 TEASPOON of refined sugar, it says our immune system shuts down on itself for UP TO 5 hours. YIKES!!! Because it is such a shock to our system. And...lol...I repeat that to myself every time I look at an oatmeal cream cookie...because evil as they are, I love them toooooo!!!

Hostess cupcakes are one of my weaknesses too.

hey now! watch the firecrackers! i am crushed to the core that my hostess cuppycake title was bleminshed in this place! after all the good that i have done? why do you want to trash me like that?

i am a hostess of the journals. had my title at the old board and that just hasnt' been fixed yet.

the cupcake thing? well, now that came up awhile back when some of the girls were talking about their um.....how to say this politely .....big boobs. jimmiejo has ample supply but not the endowment, lets say, that those girls do...........hence cuppycakes!

so you see, my title and reference had nothing at all to do with the unwholesome snack i was compared to.

i am crushed that 2 of my journalers did not come to my defense! and terry after the help i have been!

Re: Hostess cupcakes

Awww jimmie!!

Sorry. Got your PM and headed straight over to see the post.

**Terry adds that to the list of things she needs to get to tonight***

Thanks for filling us all in on the truth so that we may not speak of what we dont know!!

Consider me a defender of your honor from here on in............. just as soon as I read you journal!

LOL

Lisa, ROFLMAO!!!! Good idea for the whoopie pies that call my name EVERY single time I walk into the local convenience store where my dd works! I just may have to get one and make a blasted ceremony of it some night to purge myself of the evilness of it all.
