8 POUNDS of Popcorn?!?

So a brief update to start.... YES! I went to the gym... did 38minutes on the bike... not because I couldn't go longer, but I was running short on time and my co-workers were leaving... I did hit a wall at about 20 minutes but i pushed past it! YAY!

As for the title... Yes! I bought 8 pounds of pop corn... weird thing is, if you ate the entire jug it would only be about 3 pounds worth of calories... What happens to the other 5 pounds?!

I find air popping my own pop corn to be fun, exciting and surprisingly delicious! and it is super low cal for the volume of food you get to eat....

Also, today is day 3 of not drinking soda! wahoo! I am not aiming for any specific number of days, but I had noticed that the more often I drank my diet soda the more I wanted it.... and I also craved sweets, but was never really satisfied by whatever 'sweet' thing I chose to calm the craving... I will probably have some tomorrow... but the good news is I have been drinking water like crazy... probably too much... does anyone know how much water is too much?

{side note: I have had blood work done to test for diabetes (in the past - maybe a year ago was my most recent test) and they always come ack negative.... healthy as a horse actually, except the extra weight}
