PEANUT BUTTER OREOsCome to Australia, we have them on the shelf ready to go.Personally, they turn my stomach. But I’m a bit strange. And getting stranger everytime I think about how strange I am. I don’t know anyone apart from me who can eat a 14" pizza (all of it in one sitting on my own), have a tomato sauce (ketchup) multigrain sandwich for dessert and then go out the road bike and do 40 miles at 18mph.My world is a strange place.

Craig – yes I believed that once… I guess I should hold on to that belief. Thanks!P.S. I’m totally digging the PB oreos idea, lol.

At what point do you rename your blog? Fat Cyclist will eventually become totally incorrect as a description, right?I just began bike to work commuting (6.6 mi total, both ways)—several months after knee surgery—and have a lot of weight to loose before I’m anywhere near your weight.Good luck with the doctors.

I had twinkies and Dr. Pepper for supper last night.

My horror was less at the alarming alacrity with which you annihilated that burrito and more at your chosen technique. Would it have killed you to use utensils? I mean, the burrito was smothered in cheese, sauce and sour cream. Hey, turns out you were too. Lucky the car was a rental.

legs0074 – there’s probably a 12 step program for people (like us) who are trying to get even with their bodies. i hope and pray that nobody ever stages an intervention and forces me to go to one of those programs.jay – you mean i can start eating dark chocolate with impunity? what’s in dark chocolate? by the way, congrats on taking something scary and turning it into something positive. your cholesterol levels are better than mine.al – no, i’m afraid i’m the guy who would get angry at someone/something and then go eat a triple-decker peanut butter sandwich.a.toad – i knew this entry would gross you out. not as much as the thought of tofu mayo grosses me out, tho. sounds like it could quite possibly be worse than miracle whip.bob – you make it sound like i’m not ALREADY having food-relationship counselling.daisy – listen to big mike. if you get your bike set up for you properly, it shouldn’t hurt your knees. big mike – if you had a blog, i would read it every single day. fatfitnesschick – oh, i’ve gone on a Binge of Rage after being disappointed on the scale. i expect this is a fairly common thing. i’m just willing — for some reason which i don’t get, because i would absolutely not do this in real life — get really explicit about what a buffoon i am.dawn – fair enough. i did in fact have some doritos. maybe it’s time to look into that 12-step program after all.bill – i’ve never heard of the show, but then again i don’t really follow reality tv (tagline of this blog notwithstanding). there was definitely a ‘last supper’ aspect to that binge, though. i’ve since been nearly monastic in my eating habits.craig – if i were nabisco, i would look into an oreo with a peanut butter filling. taste of a reeses, texture of an oreo. sure-fire success.sue – just keep plugging away, same as any of us. some days you’ll do better than others. if you exercise and eat right, though, eventually the trend will bend to your favor. it takes patience though, as you already know.

Dude,I tried to live in your world but to no avail. I can only say that since it’s my first week maybe my scale will bend to my favor next week or the week after.Thanks for sharing the funny entry. It had me LOL so much that my employees thought I was reading my email!BTW, I went to your sister’s site and found it funny too. I guess humor runs in your family.Hugs,Fatty Walker!!!

fatchick – Has it occurred to you that you might be gaining muscle mass and the scale is not the best way to measure your fitness level?Try to measure your body fat percentage. Use that in conjuction with your weight measurement. Fatty – Re: Peanut Butter Oreos………you are the man!

LOL…I don’t know if you watch FX, but there’s a show on it called "Starved" about a bunch of people with body image/eating disorders (don’t most cyclists?). Won’t debate the entertainment value of the show, but I find it pretty amusing. The episode before the season finally had the "large" compulsive eater do the same thing you did, but all in one sitting, right before going into the hospital for gastric bypass surgery. He’s 300lbs, and he ate pretty much anything & everything you could imagine(plates of cheeseburgers, fried chicken wings, cheez-wiz, etc.) as a "last meal". Guy drops "dead" from a heart attack right as he’s entering the hospital. He actually survives (thank goodness he was in the hospital when it happened), but he’s forced to have his jaw wired shut to prevent him from eating.Moral of the story…enjoy the food…but the body has a nasty way of fighting back, and it usually wins (heart attacks, ulcers, indigestion, etc)!
