So, my mother-in-law sent us a care package loaded with mooncakes and tofu jerky. I really have the best mother-in-law a girl could ask for. There are so many mooncakes, that hubby and I have been eating 2 for breakfast every morning. You really can't hold on to them too long or they will get hard. Well, hubby did it...he said I looked like I was gaining weight. I though how can I in just 2 days? Yes, my calories have increased due to the larger breakfast, but my phone is showing I have been 2X more active than usual. Then I remembered what I used to tell myself..."I'm not a garbage can." I know those mooncakes are expensive and have to be eaten, but I really shouldn't be eating 2 per day. That's 500! I figured out I could cut back a little and have just 1 mooncake and something lower in calories for breakfast instead to fill me up. It always seems like mooncakes arrive when I've just made some head way on loosing the weight. ;) Have to admit the Su style mooncakes are my favorite with their flaky outside and heavy filling.
