I saw what you were eating under there.........

Ha ha ha, the title is an inside joke.  I'm trying to decide if I should explain it or not because it's halarious to me and I'm pretty sure you (as the reader) will think that it's dumb........hmmmmmmmm.....OK, well dumb is how I roll so here it goes.  Since I was young I liked to tell people, " I saw what you were eating under there".  Then they would say, " Under where?"  And then the punchline, I would say, "Ewwwww, you were eating underwear??!!"  Yeah, like I said....dumb, but I have continued to do that silly joke throughout the years to family and friends so now it's my random trademark I guess.  It's funny how even though it's a joke it kind of applies to my daily struggle with food.  When I am eating something I know is going to send me in reverse from my goal I feel like I am hiding under a table, hiding from everyone with my bag of chips or leftover cake from Destiny's birthday.  Hold on to your britches because I'm about to go even deeper!  What I've realized is I'm kind of just hiding from myself under that metophorical table, am I crazy?  Um, Yeah!  For some reason when I scarf down 1 little cupcake...ok 3 cupcakes leftover from Destiny's class party in the dark, outside, in the truck, I feel like I've avoided being "caught" so it's ok... what the???  Yeah, like I said, crazy!  So I guess the point to this ramble is that I wish I would tell myself more often, "I saw what you were eating under there!"  I have to be able to figure out how to do that in my times of weakness to overcome my bindge eating addiction.  Yeah, I have lost some weight, and yeah I'm in better shape but I still have a long way to go in overcoming the mental battle that I believe has caused most of thes fatness in the 1st place.  So I say to you my friend... "I saw what you were eating under there!"

  2. BAHAHA, I love the underwear joke. I just did it to Noah, and he thought it was very clever. I'm sure he's going to be repeating it at school tomorrow :)

  3. It's like, if no one saw me eating it, then I really didn't, but my body was the proof, all extra 80 pounds of it. I know exactly what you're talking about. I did most of my overeating at night when everyone else was asleep. When I lived with my parents, it was the bathroom. With 6 brothers and sisters, it truly was the ONLY place you could be alone!
