Short version of Tuesday Shirt Article: "Goldfish saved my life."

Long version of Tuesday Shirt Article:
This morning after putting Jack on the bus, I dutifully measured out my breakfast in an effort to refrain from overeating - 24 Frosted Mini Wheats biscuits, 1/2 cup 2% milk. That has never seemed like a serving size to me, but what I measured out equalled about 400 calories so as usual my eyes deceive my stomach.

Or so I thought.

Just as I was about to head out the door for work I had a sudden hankering for food. With each step towards the kitchen the feeling doubled until I had hastily threw a ham/cheese sandwich together. But even after gobbling that down I was still shakey and edgy. I jittered my way to work, and then downed two small apples and two handfuls of Goldfish. As I write this I am still twitchy but more settled than I was when I walked in the door. Darned blood sugar crash, from what I can tell. Hunger that bowls me over like a lineback just doesn't happen that often.

So thank you Goldfish for saving my life!
