I Need a Superhero

It's obvious who the villains are:

Fatman (AKA The Capered Crusader, The Dark Chocolate Knight)
Fatwoman (think of an overweight Pfeifer or Halle Berry with pointy ears)
The Nibbler (nibble me this, dieter)
The Choker (big grin)
Cravin'
Wonder what I ate Woman

(This is Fatman)


(This is Wonder what I ate Woman)


You get the drift. But I need the fat fighting superhero. The one that makes me want jumping jacks instead of flapjacks.

This super hero has to be a girl and has to be active.

I'm thinking along the lines of Fit Girl



Fighting fat and chopping vegetables, she has the skill and weapons for both.

She'll make fat free swiss out of your gouda intentions.

Like a Big, Frosted Cupcake

-Drag queens could get a few tips from those aunts.
-Oh, my God. Look at me. I'm just covered!
-Like a big, frosted cupcake. -I know, it's like...
-Come on, help me with the veil
(from My Big Fat Greek Wedding)

I made cupcakes yesterday, big fancy frosted ones. And I licked the bowls. But if you check out my nutrition tracker, I counted it. I figured out what a cupcake was in batter land, and that's what I had.

Here I am ready to begin, butter and all...


I made two batches, banana, and dark chocolate. These are obviously the chocolate ones...


Then came the fun frosting part...



I'll let myself eat one after dinner, but honestly after all that work, I wouldn't care if I never touched buttercream icing again.

Happy Easter!

Cracking the G00se Egg

This sign post represents my losses for the past two weeks...



..and yes, it seems like I've been here for a couple million years.

Where's here? It's that place where I was doing really well, then things stop, then they start slipping backwards, and then I stop.

So, before I started slipping backwards this time, I thought I would analyze what's going on. Well, with the tools here on Sparkpeople, that was...



Too easy. I went to enter my breakfast in the nutrition tracker. Since I eat the same thing for breakfast every morning, I hit the back button to just copy yesterday's breakfast to today and...g00se egg. It wasn't there.

So I hit the back button again, to Thursday, and...g00se egg. It wasn't there either.

I haven't been tracking anything for a couple of days, and didn't even notice it. Then I realized that the water bottle on the edge of my sink, the one I use to make sure I drink lots of water, hasn't been touched in days.

That explains a lot. Actually, that explains everything.

SparkGuy, thanks for making it easy!
