Good Moms Make Cookies
So yes, I admit, I do like cookies. All kinds. In fact, my kids don't have to ask me to make cookies. I do it because I like them as much as the kids. BUT...it seems that all the nutrition classes I've taken did not really teach me to change my behavior. I do know what is healthy and what is not. I know that a person should eat sweets SPARINGLY and get plenty of exercise. I don't mind the exercise part. I mind the SPARINGLY part. I have put on 20 pounds since last year. That's right. 20! Holy cow! I never thought I would go back to my fat pants. I feel guilty and gross when I don't eat right, so why do I do it? Well, because the junk food tastes good. That's why. I am working on it. I just have to apply all the common sense knowledge and quit being a cookie monster. I do like healthy food too, so that isn't a problem. It's those times when I look through the house searching for some junk food. There has to be something bad for me here! Then I realize, I don't BUY junk food. I make it from scratch. So maybe I should quit baking completely and get out there and run my buns off. Starting now.

Ok...ready, go! Oh, if you want to make me cookies, I wouldn't complain. I not only had to stop making them, I had to stop buying chocolate chips and yummy things to make them with! Good luck in your new commitment. Hope it lasts longer than mine did. :)
