I KNOW THAT I EAT TOO MUCH. There, that’s my confession for today. I overdo it during meals, then I snack, nibble, nosh between meals like it’s some kind of oral gratification fanaticism. “Never eat more than you can lift,” Miss Piggy once proclaimed, and she had a point, I can tell you. Put a package of cookies in front of me and my lack of control would probably be sufficient to start a small engine. Pretzels, cheese puffs, peanut butter cups, I can dominate them like an all-star linebacker. Yet, I’m technically not “fat.” My classification is “overweight,” and I seem to be holding my own. Probably a majority of the population is overweight, I tell myself as I reach for another handful of trail mix. At least I produce a pleasant fragrance in the house when I nuke a bag of microwave popcorn. All this, of course, affects the number of times during the day when I am heading for the bathroom to empty. My sole bit of self-control arrives between 5 PM and 6 PM, when I stop eating for the day, but I’m still generally up twice a night to go. Falling back to sleep after a middle of the night bathroom trip is an ability that one achieves over time. I’ve laid awake longer after waking from a weird dream. It was probably a dream about eating butterscotch bars.
😆 🤣 Thanks for the great read....now what to have for breakfast......
Happy Sunday

Your post hit home today, Henry. It was only a short while ago that I wrote of “my failure to thrive” about not being able to regain some weight. Well, that was short-lived! Lately, I have noticed all those Twinkies, Ding Dongs, Dark Chocolate Caramel Sea Salt clusters, and of course Captain Morgan and Diet Coke have resulted in some additional body poundage - the good news here though is - my earrings still fit!

Thank you so much, bigal1579. I think I will wait awhile on the cherries and sauerkraut. LOL. I have gotten some good advice. Thanks to all that have replied. I sure am happy that I stumbled onto this website.
Morning glory
