I have to confess...I don't feel bad for the people who are overweight and constantly complaining about it just to walk into the break room and find them eating chips, donuts, and pop. I know everyone's going to hate on me now0

When I was 5, I threw up after having strawberry milk and scrambled eggs. Logically, I love eggs but the smell of strawberry syrup grosses me out.
When I was a child I was sick and they thought banana flavoured medicine would help me take it. I did and then thew up violently for days. I can now have bananas but I cannot have anything banana flavoured. *urp* Bleck.
I have not thrown up since I was 8 years old (mushroom pizza). I'm now 50. Yes, I drink.....and yes, I get the stomach flu....but I DO NOT VOMIT.0 -

I feel like I'm so honest about our relationship and I gush about her all of the time, all of my friends and family know but she keeps me hidden because of the fact I'm female. None of her work friends know and she hasn't even told her so called best friend even though she's said she would and we've had countless arguments about it. The only people who know in her life are her 'lesbian friends' that are already out. It's starting to get to me now and I'm beginning to feel like she's ashamed of me. I just want to have a normal relationship...
This is a tough one. A year and a half is a long time to be stressed over hiding a relationship but I really do not feel as though she is ashamed of you but she is not ready for herself to be public yet. I feel for your frustration though. My best friend didn't tell me for years although I already knew and I smiled like I didn't know that she and her other 'best friend' did all these amazing things together were actually a couple. I just waited until she was ready. She was in her 30's when she finally told me and almost 40 when she told her mom. Hang in there...0 -
Today's confession is that I don't bother to read an entire post if it's super long or "bloggy". I get bored easily.

I had three Martinis and a half a jar of maraschino cherries. I started with a low cal cocktail mixer, but by the third I just mixed it with cherry juice. I also ate a crapload of honey mustard pretzels while I cooked dinner and "forgot" to log them. In my defense, I spent three, yes, three hours at the bank going over tax documents so I can get them done today.0

Most of the time, bacon grosses me out. It's something that I want maybe three times a year since I started eating meat again. I've been trying to eat down some of the stuff that I have in my freezers and I found a bit of bacon yesterday. For some reason, it was not salty at all.
In my defense, I have freaky-low blood pressure.
Mine's not freaky low, but is generally in the 105-110/60-70 range. I assume I would faint regularly if not for the copious amounts of sea salt I sprinkle on ALL THE THINGS.0 -

Almost every day my husband asks me what I want for dinner. My answer is almost always, "Whatever you are cooking."0 -

I'm wayyy behind on this thread and slowly catching up. But this is similar to how I approach pop tarts. I break off the edges and eat those first, then enjoy all the frosted/filling yumminess.
Now I really want a pop tart. It's been too long....0 -

My colleague blamed her chocolate pretzel breakfast this morning on having 'fallen to the Communists'.

Peep cleanse.
Waste.
You crap me up.
Confession: In my head @tincanonastring 's real name is "Tim". Full Name: Tim Canon, A String. Like Matt Saracen, QB 1.
YES! Me, too. Every time I see his avatar I think, "There's Tim".
NO! My dad is Timm, and it totally would weird me out if Tincan was Tim, too. NO, NO, NO!
Okay, from now on I'll try to see him as "Tincan" all one word. That should help.
And why did that gym / pet peeves thread get so out of hand? I mean, how many countless threads have we had with the same topic? Well, I read a few pages, but got annoyed.
This is my preferred handle, if anyone cares, including the quotes. Most people just call me a*****e.
"Tincan" it is, then. And I have a name, but regularly get called a b***h. Oh well.0 -

Why would a rabbit eat eggs? WHY?!?!?!
That thread is going to make my head explode.
What a strange thing. I confess I've never been to an easter egg hunt, I never left eggs out for the easter bunny either or santa for that matter0 -

I'm ok if we physically split it first though, but otherwise I get pissed if they eat the best bite or something (or eat all the ice cream/whipped cream)... and I'd just rather not have any.
I refuse to share food with people at the movies. Especially popcorn. One person has to hold it, then the person holding it eats most of it. And then the person not holding the bag has to awkwardly reach into the other person's lap to grab some. And if both people reach at the same time it leads to hand bumping and... ugh. I just hate it. We'll each get our own popcorn and be happier.
Confession: I turn into a total pig at the movies. I LOVE LOVE LOVE movie theatre popcorn and shovel it in as fast as a I can. I end up dropping a lot of it too. Some ends up down my shirt, some on the floor, and I've even found a piece that somehow ended up in my hoodie pocket. That's another reason people shouldn't share with me - you might lose a hand!
People who chomp popcorn at the movie theaters with their mouth's open irritate me so bad! lol I don't know why it bothers me so much but any kind of crunching or gulping noises turn me into one pissed off person! Like I really just want to reach over and slap the person. You can normally see me ringing my hands together to contain them. Okay sorry she reminded me of something there
You and me both. Those sounds send me into a rage. It can be someone I really like, too. It's not personally about the person, but the noises themselves. Look up "misophonia". It will all make sense, believe me.0 -

Leaving eggs out for Santa would be tres bizarre.
In our house, the easter bunny leaves eggs for YOU. In Russia, you leave eggs for easter bunny, I suppose?0 -

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! That is exactly what I thought when I read the two posts here about that place! UGH
*kitten* chick fil a.
Agreed. Never been there. Never will.
Let's not get judgy! I choose not to go there, but I don't particularly care if anyone else goes. The food is bangin' and those shakes...they bring me to the yard every time. Responsible consumerism can only go so far. If we boycotted every place that has ever done something we are personally against, no one would buy anything and we'd all starve to death.
Oh, I'm not judgy about it. I don't care if anybody else goes there, I choose not to. I also haven't been to a Wal-Mart in years and years. I haven't missed them a bit, and I'm sure they don't miss me either.
Now, if only I could think of a reason to boycott Hershey...
+1 on the Wal-Mart tip.
So agaree about Walmart! I haven't been to a Walmart in 8 months, I chose to switch to Aldi and what I save there I spend a little extra at Target to avoid Walmart. That place makes me wanna punch somebody for no reason just a bad atmosphere.
Ditto! I started using Walmart.com instead. Free shipping on any order of $50.00. So I order all my non-perishables in bulk, such as toilet paper, canned goods, toiletries, etc. and then I go to my small, low-key grocery store for dairy and produce and such. My life is SO much better because of it!0 -

Ha, that reminds me of a friend I used to have. He was super into the gym, went religiously every day. It was to the point where if I needed his help moving something heavy, if it wasn't his "arm day" he wouldn't help me. And his only cardio came at the gym. Outside of that he would not walk or play sports or anything.
Anyways, so he was really into the gym, but he would eat fast food literally daily. Including making stops at McDonalds for cookies all the time. For someone who went to the gym everyday the guy was quite big and not a good way. Such a weird character.

I'm the same way. That's why even though I've been using MFP and stalking the forums for years, I had less than 15 posts until I found this thread.
Thanks for responding. It made me feel better to know I'm not the only one.
Since Halloween came up, I have to confess I'm already planning for it too. I'm going to dress up like I'm back in the 80's (along with my sister and best friend). I even bought a hair crimper just for this. We always like to go to haunted houses while dressed up.
I don't feel like much of an adult...
I agree with those who don't like to share food. I usually don't eat anything that has been left out at work since I don't know who has touched it. I also don't like leftovers (I'll rarely eat them) because they kind of gross me out. Things taste different to me after being reheated.0 -

This explains a lot. My daughter loses her mind when somebody gulps. I'll have to let her know she's not alone.0 -

I'm sorry that you're going through this right now. I do think that it's not that she's ashamed of you, it's that she's just not ready to come out yet. You can't make someone by ready to come out. It could be that the coworkers or best friend have said things in the past that make her think it's not safe to do so. One of my best friends stayed in the closet for years because he worried about his family finding out and what their reaction would be. He finally came out (after he and his partner had been together ten years) and was completely cut off by his family and everyone that was friends with his family (very small town which thankfully he doesn't live in anymore). I know it sucks to be in your position, I wish I had a magic answer for you.

One of my exes decided to start pursuing me when I went to pick up my daughter from a sleepover at his house after working out in light colored workout pants, commando. Hm. Now I know what not to do.

But it turns out a woman I used to work with who is the same age and has a similar resume as me for the first part of her career, but then went on to be way more successful, is on the cover and there's this great puff piece about her with lots of people I know and respect quoted with anecdotes about how amazing she is. I like this woman, and she deserves it, and I'm generally happy with my career and life (and not that ambitious most of the time, as demonstrated by the fact I'm screwing around here), but I'm currently jealous and kicking myself for being a lazy slug who consistently stepped on my own feet and squandered all my opportunities to be extremely impressive and successful like her.
It's stupid, and I know I have amazing good fortune and should just count my blessings and will get over it soon, but I want to go home and cry. (I'm going to go lift weights instead.)
Good for you! And congrats on the magazine article! Keep in mind that when she saw herself on the cover she probably had some regrets or reservations of her own: maybe she wished she handled things differently, or taken a different path, or spent more time with her family, etc. We all have our doubts about where we are in our life whether we are on the "cover" or on the "last page" (literally or figuratively). No one is perfect.0 -
I have to say, this has been the funniest stuff I have read in a long time. (With the exception of the person that is having relationship problems). Feel free to friend me. 0

No tricks, but one kid saw the box of raisins being handed to him and had this "oh no" look on his face then said "Raisins, really?" He was fairly young.
Hahaha! That's funny. Poor kid. But, hey, kids need to learn to be grateful and eat a few healthy things now and then, so I don't blame you at all for making that choice. Besides, pretty sure raisins contain as much sugar as candy.0 -
