Thanks to a work colleague, Shasta and Carlos who both offered, no longer need to ship me Oreo cookies from the US. Sainsbury’s the grocery store I shop at, does indeed carry them, its just that the one in Wimbledon doesn’t for some reason.
Either way, despite the fact that they have been in my possession for 8 hours, I have yet to have a single cookie. I decided to save them as a treat to be eaten in a months time, when I’ll be well on my way to loosing the weight I’ve gained since moving over here.
As you may recall, I joined a gym and have been doing quite a bit of Nordic walking. However, I sort of fell off the wagon when I got sick with acute bronchitis. Now having the cookies on hand which will remain in the bottom on my work desk (I couldn’t think of taking them home), gives me an incentive to get back on track because when I eat them, I don’t want to feel one bit of guilt!
