I am Cookie Monster
By Kenny | February 6, 2008
I don’t know how it happened. It just did. For the last 3 days I’ve been on a junk food eating rampage. I am cookie monster.
Or whatever kind of monster that just eats everything in site. It’s crazy. Tacos on top of cookies on top of pizza on top of lord knows what else. It started on Sunday at the Superbowl party that I was at and carried over to Mon & Tues night after work. All day I eat good solid meals and drink water and stay the course. Then I get home and something happens where I grow blue fur all over my body, my eyes bug out, my penis falls off and I eat everything in site. I’ve fallen into the trap where I’ve limited my favorite foods so much that junk foods have become coveted treats. I’ve given pizza power over me because I’ve put it up on a pedestal and denied myself. Hopefully this little binge and run it’s course and I’ll be back on track. I did go and work out this morning and usually when I work out, I don’t feel as hungry during the day and I’m super motivated to not ‘ruin’ my work out by eating crap.
Just a side note, but cookie monster eats healthy now. Those of us that have kids that watch sesame street see cookie monster eating fruit and vegetables. Blasphemy.

Get control of yourself. After work, when you feel like eating cookies and pizza, go out for a short jog instead or something.
Actually, don’t feel too bad. I’ve been reading a few weight loss blogs and Superbowl Weekend is notorious for being a time when people revert to bad eating habits. At least you recognize what’s happening. Now you can stop it.
If it makes you feel better, I slipped up and had two cookies last weekend.

Forget the past but learn from it also. We all have weak moments. Give in to your cravings a little every week. Cheat a little, so you don’t end up cheating a lot. If you really want a cookie every now and then, eat ONE Kashi cookie.

Dr Kal you’re a genius, because that’s what people who think like me are. I bought a box of Kashi bars and I made a big production at my house about how “these are cookies”, before I read your post. Too funny.

I catch myself doing the same thing, I have days where I eat til my jaws get sore.
