25-8-2009 - Give me chocolate milkshake now!!!

My mood while writing this blog: manic

After Zach deciding that my food consumption was encrouching on his living space by deciding to help pummel my food to a pulp with his feet, I have been rather fed up being tied to a ten yard vicinity of a toilet.

Its also taking the joy out of eating again because of the untimely consequences. But I stumbled on a solution quite by accident. I was out collecting some baby bits and bobs when I started feeling unwell and shaky, so I popped into the petrol station to buy a bottle of full sugar coke, when my eyes were drawn to a bottle of chocolate milk shake.

I drunk it and after about 20 minutes I felt a whole lot better and it kept me going for hours til dinner. Did Zach want to play bongos with my chocolate milkshake snack?...nope, it sneaked under his radar undetected. Thankfully I had no emergency "evacuations" with the accompanying acidic burning.

The next day, I had another chocolate milkshake and my bowels are being very thankful for a bit of peace and quiet.

I have unfortunately run out of milk shake powder this morning and I am like a woman possessed. I did think about getting in the car and going to MacDonalds for a milkshake, but a bit of common sense took a hold, its not worth driving 10 miles just for a milkshake!!

I raided the kitchen cupboard for a packet of Coco-pops, poured on loads of milk, strained of the pops and left the chocolatey milk to drink. Normally I would go mad if the kids did this, but earlier this morning it seemed the perfectly rational thing to do.

Now I am a little ashamed....what will my food cravings lead me to do next I wonder?
