We haven't really talked about it on-air, but we've been working REALLY hard on ourselves-physically in the new year.

We're both closing in on 20 pounds lost.  We've still got a way to go, but it's been a good start.  Historically, we've both gained and lost the same 60 pounds two or three times, and we are most succesful when we do it together.

If there is ONE food that I can honestly say is a "diet nuclear bomb" for us both, it's potato chips.  OMG we each could sit and devour an entire bag-and we have.

Specifically, Lay's Potato Chips...they are the devil.

NOW, we get news that "Lay's Fried Pickles With Ranch Chips" have returned.  These are part of their "Taste of America" collection, and had thought to have disappeared from stores in September. Strolling the aisles of Sam's Club, the fine folks at The Impulsive Buy found the bags back on the shelves at the warehouse shop.

This is the moment I thank the Lord we're Costco members.  Out of sight, out of mind, right?  However, if you are a Sam's member, and you rush out to get a bag, PLEASE don't DM us with a pic of you enjoying their greatness. ;)
