Mary in LA's Journal, 03 September 2013

This weekend my wonderful hubby, who loves to bake, made cinnamon rolls. From scratch. With butter and brown sugar and cinnamon and white flour and everything bad for me. ;) They were faaaaabulous! It was something he'd been wanting to try for a long time.

Oh, and popcorn. He made a lot of popcorn this past week. With butter and brown sugar and cinnamon and everything bad for me. And it was faaabulous, too!

So we had a wee bit of a talk last night about all of that. I have no problem with not buying a particular carbalicious food in a grocery store, or not ordering it in a restaurant, but I don't have the heart to refuse food from my husband's hands.

I explained that I never want to reject him or his wonderful goodies made with love, but cinnamon rolls or popcorn need to be an occasional treat for me, not every day or even every week. He was very understanding and said he doesn't want to sabotage me. He has noticed the weight loss and likes what he's seeing. ;)

And in the end, it appears I've lost almost two pounds since my last weigh-in. We did a ton of decluttering and cleaning and fixing up around the house this weekend. I guess I burned off the extra calories. So it's all good!
153.8 lb Lost so far: 46.2 lb.    Still to go: 33.8 lb.    Diet followed poorly.

Freaky ironic - I made cinnamon rolls yesterday for the first time - but my recipe didn't call for brown sugar although NOW that I read it in yours I'm thinking I missed out on something good - may have to do it again. Next test recipe will be either bread pudding or rice pudding though. Good on you for telling DH about the sweet treats - and him understanding. I didn't handle the SD giving me chocolate dipped strawberries for ValDay quite so eloquently ... I'm getting better though. Grace under pressure isn't a natural emotion for me. Good for you.
