Snowed in and can't stop eating

[Anonymous]

Ugh. This snowstorm is killing my portion control...
Not eating unhealthy foods so much, just eating too much volume.
It doesn't help that I have a nasty cold and feel horrible.

Anyone else eating like a pig?

lol. I just posted on FB that snow storms are bad for your figure. I've been munching and lounging for 3 days and have probably gained 5 pounds.

yeah, i ran out of sweets friday night so i made a chocolate cake on saturday. I've been snacking on that, pretzels, cheese, nutrigrain bars... it's a festival of carbs over here! On the bright side, I have a treadmill in the basement and I've been shoveling regularly, so I'm hoping not to gain too much.

Yep, cannot stop. and normally I don't eat junk at home (I save that for work), but I've eaten about 1/2 pound of fudge and 5 or 6 cookies. I rationalize by saying that I shoveled yesterday for a few hours, so I must have burned at least 100,000 calories.

OMG, I was just about to post about this! I'm outta control...cooking and baking and eating all weekend. It's basically how I'm passing the time.

Me too. And I can't even justify it by being pregnant since I'm 27 weeks today and have already gained 25 lbs.

I was hungry for lunch at 9:30!

OMFG--I have been out of control, eating from boredom. Glad I'm not the only one.

Before the storm, when I was stocking up, I bought a ton of Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Our power is out so it's buried in the snow but I know where it is I ate an entire bag of cheese popcorn while while watching TV. I feel disgusting.

Yep me too! I baked two different cookies, cake and made chicken-n-dumplings. I also made a couple of dips..so yeah know what you mean! God, I hate being snowed in for this very reason!

I've been making sweets, gorging, and then bringing the rest to friends- they're going to start running away from me soon.

We just ordered a cheese steak pizza. They are delivering in Alexandria. I even had extra cheese put on it. . .

I LOVE you people! (I hope you could understand my mumbling through the cupcake I was shoving down my piehole)

Man, I think we've cooked more today as a family than we have in the entire past month. Granted, my parents are here because they lost power, so I had to make something presentable for dinner. And dessert. And snack. And drink. And good grief someone needs to take away my fork!

I ate and drank a TON yesterday, muffins, pizza, beef stew with pasta, wine, bailey's. I just gave in and and ate whatever I wanted to yesterday. I worked out hard Friday and today so I am trying to justify it to myself. Today I had a bit more self control, but I am still eyeballing the Bailey's that is still out on the counter. Something about cold weather and sitting by the fire, I can't control myself!!!
