Obviously not! Anyhow, I was secretly relieved that I couldn't find the scale this morning to see what a month of eating what I want and not moving could do. By noon, it was as if some unknown force was leading me as I was stirring a pound of melted butter into 3 cups of sugar in a trance like state making what??? More popcorn balls!!! For no reason other than I had finished all of the other ones from Halloween, and 'needed more'. Hey I've got an idea, why don't I just skip the chewing part and stuff them down my sweats (that I sport daily) over my butt and thighs? The chewing takes longer... I paused and thought...no, I really do have a problem. Why was I making another batch of popcorn balls? Scott and the kids don't even eat them for the love of everything holy! Harry would, but he just got braces! What kind of mother am I?
For those of you who see me in the flesh on a regular basis and may read this, the next time I complain about weight loss...like its Walker's fault or something, do me a favor...SLAP ME! I just took my camera right now, and without touching a thing this is what was laying around a 3 ft. radius. Enjoy...but trust me, you won't as much as I have:)
The forsaken balls....
To wash them down. At least its diet! Heard it helps with cellulite...perfect;)
My faves...low fat!?!?!?!?
Have you tried these? SO GOOD! They only come out once a year!!!
Mmm pudding... Do you love how far back the tomatoes are? I don't even remember buying them!
NO, your eyes are not deceiving you, there are 2 ice cream boxes and yay, 2 MORE scoops:) The tin foil thing on top? Used to be twice the size before last night. It is frozen cookie dough from my visiting teacher...bless her. At roughly 10pm I showed Scott the treasure and he, without hesitation ordered me to fire up the oven. I believe in being an obedient wife. Visting teaching truly does bless lives.

What is that building on the horizon...oh I think I recognize it...why yes, it is the gym. If I threw a rock I'd hit it. They don't know me there:( Yes this is taken from my backyard...shameful!)
Why a December wedding???? For the first time in my life I can't wait for the pressure of December to be over, then I can actually eat this stuff and enjoy it! Until then, I'll just eat it:)

JILL!!! Thank you!!! I laughed so hard that entire post! I really miss you! I think I need that popcorn ball recipe! No judgments here, I made pumpkin cookies today...but I did half the batch!
CHERI!!!! I miss you too, and thank you again for making my blog backdrop BEAUTIFUL! I am so spoiled! What a dear friend!
Ok, you kill me. I'd like to remind you that you are the pretty one though, as you most graciously let everyone we ever meet know. I do still believe you will look like Nicole Richie one day...okay maybe you shouldn't go that far, but you are going to be that stick figure that blows away in the wind. I have faith and you know it's strong! I love you and wish I were there to help you eat all that crap. Mmmmm!
p.s. how do I get Cheri on my team to do everything but post on my blog? You have it made in the shade my friend!
JIll!! I peed my pants while reading this!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! This is about like me with all the baking, all the time. sometimes I eat it, sometimes I give it away...nonetheless, it hasn't helped my figure either. You are too dang funny with this!!! HILARIOUS!!!!! by the way...Where have you been? I haven't seen you..although I did see Ms. Reagan at preschool the other day! lets do lunch sometime...at your house, lol!!!
Freaking hilarious. That's all I can say. After seeing you tonight I just had to come home and read! I have the same peppermint patties bought today on clearance at Target ... how can you pass up $1.34? Planning to put mine in the freezer and hoping they make it to Christmas ;) This time of year kills me cuz I have so many treats that I love to bake ... UGH!!
Jill, you are AWESOME!! I could picture you saying each thing you wrote with your super excited tone in your voice.
Miss you!

I LOVE popcorn balls!!! Specially the lime koolaid flavored ones!! So good!
And I thought I was the only person in the world who loved Eggnog?! I have at least 2qts in my fridge at all times. You are not alone my friend :)
So Jill.... next summer when you are here we need to get together and make popcorn balls. I too could picture you saying everything and I miss you! The pressure is on but remember to enjoy the journey! Food is good! It is not your enemy! You always look fabulous! Can't wait to see you in December, oh maybe we should make them then? We could make Christmas ones. Say "hi" to everyone from us!
Hilarious! I love you Jill@!!!!
Jill, you kill me. Can't wait til you come in December. We'll live at the gym but I don't know about resisting all of the Christmas temptation. I know, we'll do double duty at the gym. That way we can have our cake & eat it too!
Jill, will you and Scott please get on Facebook!!!
LOVE IT!! I FEEL your pain!! I was preggo and fat at all three sibling's weddings! I have one left to redeem myself! He gets home from his mission a few months after I have this baby and he'd better NOT get married before my baby is one! I need SOME time to get myself together!
MISS YOU!! You always put a smile on my face when I read your posts!
