And I have to say, I can't stand it now either. I've found that when you are used to gross food, you like it; but when you take a long break from it, you can't go back. At least, for me. <BR/><BR/>I love your blog tag line too.

It sounds like you are doing a lot ...Kudos to you! It sounds like you are doing a lot of things right for your sweet ladies. I would have wolfed that other twinkie down right along with you.<BR/>Hubby & I grew up very differently. At my house we had all that yummy stuff, but in moderation. We always had healthy choices as well. Hubby's mom didn't have any of that stuff in the house. Ever. Hubby said when he would go over to a friends house he would gorge himself on "junk" because he could & because it was forbidden. He's ended up fit, and I think he's a hottie, so it's all good. However, his brother, who is an awesome person, ended up being extremely obese & has struggled with his weight (he is doing better now) for much of his life. I'm sure there are several reasons he is that way, but he will say that he started eating tons of crap when he was away from home because he could. My point? Sometimes I think letting a little of that stuff be available takes some of the forbidden thrill away?!?! We usually have at least one sugar cereal in our pantry (I did grow up on that stuff, you know - and Cookie Crisp is only 2 points) and the girls will almost always choose the healthy cereal. They pick the bread with flax seed over any other bread, and the amount of money I spend on fresh fruit weekly is crazy. <BR/>Just my two cents. Sorry the post got so long....<BR/>I'm going to go have a bowl of sugary cereal now. And maybe a twinkie later!!!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17769967354682232429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3010282931485762483.post-3603912641767034362008-02-22T02:51:00.000-07:002008-02-22T02:51:00.000-07:00My eight month old did get a cookie once (a Girl S...My eight month old did get a cookie once (a Girl Scout shortbread cookie, so nothing super packed with sugar and chocolate or anything) and he did like it.

My kids got a piece and only ate off the apples. Then they both polished off all the fruit from the fruit tray when the guests left.<BR/>They rarely get cookies, but do like them, they always get fruit, but LOVE it. So I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I always am. <BR/>I guess we are doing something right, which is nice to know sometimes. :)Crystal Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15725086250676773592noreply@blogger.com
