Crime Stoppers

Friday, July 16, 2010

I'm going to attempt to prevent a crime before it happens.

I am a sugar addict of the highest order, so everyday, I allow myself a sweet treat. Today, that was to be ice cream. I was looking forward to my little indulgence after I got off work. But a funny thing happened on the way to working my little plan... I got sidetracked by a couple of Subway chocolate chip cookies.

So... being that I now have only a moderate supply of calories left for the day, the ice cream is out. Now, here's where my crime prevention techniques come into play...

I'm creating this blog post as a preventative measure. I'm testing a theory that if I publicly announce that an ice-cream related crime may or may not occur this evening, I will prevent said crime from taking place. Crafty, no?

We'll see how effective it is. My official weigh-in is tomorrow as well, so that provides an added incentive.

I'm going to be on my best behavior for the rest of the day. A lite dinner, and finito!

Now that I've alerted crime stoppers, hopefully an egregious sugar offender will have a chance at redemption.

  Just read this blog. Got a good laugh. Wish I had read it previously when I committed my ice cream crime. Picture this-Walmart, Ben & Jerry's pint of ice cream, plastic spoon, go to check-out and pay for ice cream, eat all of it in the rug dept. at the very back of the store where there are less customers milling around.

SICK, SICK, SICK but I learned a lesson. I have no control when it comes to ice cream so I simply cannot even consider having it at all.
