Earlier this evening, I was totally convinced that this was going to be my month. And then the confidence faded. Now I’m just tired.
My mom asked me last weekend if I am pregnant and I said, “No, just fat.”
So can I blame Prometrium for the fat, or no? I switched this month from the Crinone suppositories for no reason in particular other than that they are what I had and I was too lazy to call for another prescription, and now I haven’t lost the 2-3 pounds I usually gain around ovulation. I’m sure it has nothing to do with having baked (and eaten) these cookies. Amazing recipe, but just for the record, I figured out that they have 8 WW points each, and that’s assuming you make smaller cookies (24 instead of the 18 they recommend). Yikes.
Meanwhile, I obsessively want an iPhone. I’m totally going to treat myself but it seems like it’s a whole process and you have to get to the store early in the morning? So maybe this weekend. But, just so you know I have my priorities straight, I already ordered the case.
(Testing next Thursday. Unless this is the month I finally have the patience to just wait it out the full 14 days? That would be Saturday.)
I just re-read this and it sounds like I am high. I should delete since I’ve basically said nothing, but I’m hungry for a little interaction so say hi in the comments if you feel like it.
Are those cookies really worth it? Not the points, I mean—the fussiness. I skimmed the recipe and it looks like a lot of special flour, extra waiting, blah blah. Are they THAT good, or should I just whip up the recipe on the chip bad again?
I always thought progresterone, generally, made me gain weight. I was on crinone for a few months til my insurance stopped covering it (jerks), then I switched to the refrigerated suppositories the pharmacy made up. They both seemed to be about the same, though.
I am dying to make those cookies … though I admit I am skeptical. I have never found a recipe that beats the one on the Toll House bag, never.
Hi!
oh, hello darling. I will endeavor to be a more active chatmate in the coming days… I’m finally home.
erm, bag. chip bag. sorry.
Hi!
I have found it very dispiriting to find out how many points certain foods have. I mean, I joined WW to learn about that stuff but once you know it you can never un-know it.
LOL! You seriously made me laugh with this entry. I’m glad you didn’t delete it
We shall wait together next week!
Hi!
Those cookies look amazing! And the new iPhones are hott. *rowr*
Hope this is your month.
Hi, and good luck. Whether you are confident or not has no influence on the outcome.
I am very hopeful this is the month for you! As for the cookies, I’m curious, too–did you do the special flours & chocolate, or sub them out? My problem with the recipe is that I’m pretty much an instant gratification cookie girl–when I want cookies, I want them NOW, not in 36-48 hours!
Hope you enjoy your iPhone–I will live vicariously through you.
I cannot believe how crazy people are for that iPhone! We went to the mall on Sunday to walk around and eat lunch and there was a line about 150 people long to get in to the Apple store. They had security guards keeping people in line. People took folding chairs. For a phone??? LOL! This coming from the girl who got a iPod touch for Christmas and it is still in the box. And this girl also got her regular cell phone taken from her last week at work and replaced with some funky slick gizmo that also lets me check email and internet. Great, it will take me 6 months to learn how to use it.
I am hopeful for you every month. It is shocking how much projesterone can make you hold onto weight. Sadly I had a MC over 4th of July,and I’d been on injectible projesterone for 7 weeks, and it took two weeks,and then it was like a deflating ballon. One morning I woke up and my pants buttoned. Weird. I hope your poundage is meaningful
Sorry about the rampant run on sentance in that last comment.
So I made those cookies, special flours, waiting time and everything… and holy cow. Awesome. A totally different chocolate cookie from a Toll House… but really good, especially warm.
