congrats, mike.. i think you’ve stumbled upon your own route to happiness.. – like you stated, we’ve only got so much time here on earth, why not enjoy it? – i know stress and worry can build, even though i’m usually a real easygoing guy, this past week with the start of a new semester had be kind of haywire for a bit until i realized that it’s not so bad and if anything i should feel fortunate.. – i think we all have a lot to be happy for..

I’m so sad that you are not posting nutritional analysis anymore, but I fully think you are doing the right thing! I am also an obsessive calorie counter who had lost a lot of weight and since have not been the same. I can never enjoy a piece of food without worrying! So good for you!

In a way, you sounded just like Ferris. But better.
And diet soda negates calories. Everybody knows that.

Very insightful post this week! I hear you about worrying too much about stuff. Life’s simple pleasures are to be enjoyed…and Dorie’s desserts as well…as long as we don’t enjoy them everyday Have a fab week!

Oh, absolutely, you gotta break free. The TWD club is way more fun than the supermodel club. Have an extra piece of torte with your girl and together we can rule the galaxy.

Too weird – I totally had a period of time with the same disordered eating (thanks calorie-count…). I’m definitely going to look forward to not seeing the amount of calories in these treats

You’re right, it was pretty easy but, alas, time consuming. Your torte looks lovely!

Your torte is very tasty looking.
You know what they say – everything in moderation – Including Moderation! Sometimes you just have to say what the fk.
Cheers.

So good to hear you’re over your Twinkies and Slim Jim days. Your torte looks great, and if happiness is eating chocolate and ice cream, then I’ve been ecstatic all week long.
