Especially when compared to my last night… After work last night, I was completely starving with no relief to be found in my apartment. I walked to the local store and picked up a few quick and easy things – namely a frozen pizza, a large bag of peanut M & Ms, and some chips and salsa. Not exactly healthy I know. No need to remind me of that. As I am walking home, it begins to rain pretty hard. But did that stop me from consuming the entire bag of M & Ms before reaching my apartment???? NOOOO! I still had a large hole in my stomach, so I throw the pizza in the oven and proceed to open up the chips and salsa. Did knowing that I would be having pizza in some 10-15 minutes stop me from consuming the entire bag of chips and jar of salsa before the pizza finished cooking???? NOOOOOOO! Still with hunger, I then proceeded to eat the pizza. The end result? Well, I managed to spend most of my evening on my couch, doubled up in pain, with a severe stomach pain/cramp. It has been a very very long time since I have done that to myself. I imagine (and hope) it will be a very very long time before I do that to myself again.

UPDATE: I was later asked if the story about my eating binge was at all embellished. I am afraid to say the answer is no. Everything bought was consumed in rapid succession. This was indeed rapidly followed with stomach pain/cramping.
