Cathy Classics by Cathy Guisewite for February 05, 2020

That looks about right…

That is the most damaging piece of advice given by diet doctors and gurus. ‘Eat a tiny slice or small spoonful and your craving will subside.’ Fresh cow piles!!! The only subside that happened was my so called willpower caving in and eating even more. Now I just take a normal slice or small bowl of the stuff and gee golly, no craving. Cut on something else that you can get by with, like bread or something.

Size of spoon and capacity is sort of subjective. Eat anything. Eat everything. Just less.

I must be in the minority who doesn’t love ice cream. I do like some fresh, homemade ice cream, but no one makes it anymore. Now a cookie or some dark chocolate, yes please! And I won’t even make cake anymore or I will eat it all. :-b

Hello Cathy friends! Happy Wednesday! The days just fly by. Too much going on and I’m so tired. One day I will miss having things to do, but for now, I would like a break. So I’m here taking a Cathy break. Hope everyone has a great day!

I’ve had this one on my freezer door for years and years!

A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.

I agree. One spoonful of ice cream just won’t do. No way I could stop myself after only one – unless it was mint in that case one spoon is too much (peppermint and I have never got along).

Glad to hear from you lightenup – I was getting worries it has been so long since you were here. I hope your life does settle down a little soon.

I disagree cubswin2016 – I know the line well but it should have been “A spoonful of chocolate makes the medicine go down”.

Hope everyone had a great day today and didn’t have to do with only one spoonful.

OK—I literally [face-palmed] on this one. Is that a spoon or a shovel, Cathy?

HI, MOM. Hello, “Cathy” Clan.

Yup…whoever said a small bowl is right on…I have one every night and I make my goal at Weight Watchers every month (for the past 12 years).
