What steps are you taking to avoid calorie glut this holiday?

1) After visiting whomever, I do not load up a plate of cookies and stuff to take home, even if they insist.

2) However, my husband does. It’s hard to resist. So every time I think I just can’t stand it, I gotta have one of those home made chocolate chip cookies, I go get one.
I take it to the sink.
I run water on it.
I put it in the garbage disposal.

I haven’t gained a pound!

The funny thing is, I know my husband will assume, of course that I’ve eaten whatever, and he’d be upset to know that I trashed it instead.

That makes me think of another question….what is the difference between me eating the cookie and throwing it away? Either way, it’s gone. But why should throwing it away make him angry? It’s actually the healthier thing to do, so by rights he should be glad, right? Hmmmm. Post Christmas stress musings.
