    Hawkins cheezies. I have a soft spot for those myself....too bad I don't tolerate dairy....
    Toffee.
    I can do that. Next trip down.

    Read the nutritional breakdown - those snap peas are excess! (except in small doses like I usually eat them)

    Maybe it's Jay Cloths. You can't get them here. Hawkins!! That's what I'm talking about.

    They weren't Hawkins, they were the soft kind that are like soft orange styrofoam that melts in your mouth. Not one redeeming characteristic, other than I like the taste.

    I did burn 1500+ calories today though, and I'm pretty sure I didn't eat that many calories in cheezies...

    J-Cloths. I have some of those.

    After my 10 slow-paced and pokey miles (equivalent to 1000 of your killer miles due to my severe out-of-shapedness) I had a rare filet mignon, tossed salad with Ranch dressing, mashed potatoes slathered and swimming in butter, and a gallon of sweetened iced tea.

    That was four hours ago. Currently I'm contemplating a bowl of double chocolate ice cream but since I don't have any, I'll just dream about it.

    After my half marathon I replaced the lost carbs with fluids with a respectable quantity of beer, and a pulled pork sandwich with the best freakin' garlic fries on the face of the earth. And I ate every last one!

    I do have to admit that after 120 mile bike ride with 9000 feet of elevation gain, I'd not feel too badly about a whole bag of goldfish. I did 1/3 of that and wondered if I ate enough.

    Last night after our long hot climb-y ride I had two Klondike bars and a GIANT bowl of popcorn for dinner. Along with a couple quarts of electrolyte/vitamin water.

    After long tandem rides, we go for microwave popcorn. All that SALT.

    After I lose ALLLLL the rest of this weight...please introduce me to your cheezies. There is a kind of cheese wafer thing I can only get back home in Albany NY that I love passionately. I forget the exact name, but I took to calling them "Hanford Wafers" because the cheese filling is a BRIGHT fluorescent orange rarely seen in nature. They are so salty and so totally bad and I love them.

    PS Wahine, I would like to hear a little about your upcoming endurance ride...

    what can I do to get a filet mignon? hmmm.

    I'm eating a giant bowl of popcorn right now, and I didn't even ride today!
    Thanks TE! You pushed me half way over!
