peanut butter cups.

I would say that about the same day I was diagnosed with mono, I became readdicted to peanut butter cups. I say readdicted in that reese's pb cups were my favorite candy pre-lactose intolerance diagnosis. Seeing how pb cups have "lactose" listed as an ingredient, they definitely fall on the "do-not eat list." Last month when I had mono I decided I was immune to the effects of eating lactose and bought two large bags of easter colored reese pb cups at rite aid while filling a prescription. Well, my mono is finally gone but the pb habit has not ended, thus each time I go to rite aid or the grocery store I restock.

Why I find it necessary to inflict bodily pain upon myself in the form of reese's, I'm not really quite sure. As I am now more than one week into half-marathon training, I have decided that I must kick this reese's habit once and for all. Dairy has a way of making me cranky, tired, hungry and bloated, among other things, all of which are not conducive to pleasant runs. I have decided that if I am going to be dedicated and successful in this half-marathon, I must too dedicate myself to kicking the reese's habit.

If I can run 13.1 miles, I can live without them, right?
