Brownie Euphoria

Okay, I need to be honest. Truth is that I sometimes go a little wild on weekends and eat some things that normally I stray away from. My friend needed help baking for her sorority "little", and so I told her I'd help. While my will-power is normally strong, today it wavered. Let's be real: yours would too if you were helping to make a dessert of chocolate cookie dough layered with oreos, reeses, and brownies. LIKE WHAT?!

I was in a pure comatose state of pure sugar euphoria for hours...

In my opinion, while one should always try to stick to their meal morals and aim for the healthiest options available, today I could not resist. However, I did try to moderate how much I ate considering this was a heart attack in a pan. I took about 5 fork-fulls and then sat down to let the sugar rush hit me. Which it did. Hard. In about five minutes I was sprinting around the room and screaming about how tingly I felt (literally I felt like I was floating on a cloud)...maybe next time I should limit to only two bites? 

However, I'm not going to guilt-trip myself for the next month about how many calories I consumed. In my opinion, as long as I  moderate how much sugar I consume for a week or so while keeping my exercise up, I should be back on track. Life's too short to get upset about small bites of chocolate, so why not enjoy while it's there! Tomorrow is a new day, and I'll always get to reminisce about the bites of perfect I took. Such fond, fond memories.
