Pink Peeps give you the ability to eat a sh-tload of food and drop 10lbs just like that!0

I am fairly sure we've already designated Blue Peeps for maintenance. I should have a thread where I track both peep color usage and upcoming book titles. Or not.
Confession: I occasionally take things too far.0 -

@Francl27 You and my daughter would get along famously! She ALWAYS and I do mean ALWAYS has room for dessert. Especially is ice cream is involved.
I've eaten dessert knowing without a doubt that I will end up regretting it physically. The most recent case was Applebee's with the Apple ChimicheesecaKEOHGODGETINMYMOUTH...sorry... I knew when I ordered it that I had already overeaten on dinner and anything more was going to make me feel bloated, but damn if I didn't near lick the plate. Couldn't move from the recliner when I got home. It was awful...awfully tasty!
I literally laughed out loud at this!
We went to dinner with some friends last Tuesday and I was so stuffed on chips and salsa that I couldn't finish my dinner, but you better believe I ordered dessert. The waitress came back and said they were out of whatever it was that I ordered (now that I think of it, I think it was some sort of fried cheesecake concoction) and asked if I wanted anything else. I said no, but then proceeded to eat the fried cinnamon and sugar coated tortillas and from my husband's dessert AND the fried cinnamon coated tortilla bowl from my friend's fried ice cream.
Hi, my name is Mo, and I LOVE fried cinnamon and sugar tortillas.

I am not actually that fond of dessert and all of the calories they contain. I would be more like, "Just bring me another steak!" for dessert. I could eat red meat six times a day and never get tired of it.0

I did that when we went to a local Easten European restaurant months back... I was actually too full for dessert but I refused to leave without trying some... I seriously thought I was going to throw up, and the whole meal wasn't even that good. I'm never going to that place again!
I actually never get dessert at Applebee's because the calories are too high to make it worth it for me. I only get dessert at local restaurants that don't have calories anywhere... that way I can lie to myself that it's only 500-600 calories and not 1000+.
I used to work at Applebee's and those chimi cheesecakes and blondies were probably the only things I would eat. so full of NOM. It was awesome when somebody sent back a dessert cause we'd ALL devour it in the back.
I was so mad when they discontinued the Sizzlin' Apple Pie that I stopped eating there for 2 years.
ETA: Who the *kitten* sends back a dessert? I don't even understand that concept!
No kidding? What's wrong with people?
I went to a taping of Kitchen Nightmares once, and they had used salt instead of sugar in the dessert I ordered.
Literally the only time I have ever sent back a dessert.
Oh, no! Gag. I cannot even imagine what that tasted like.0 -

In addition, I almost always forget to include my exercise (I swear I'm not just sitting in one place every day xD).
I only just made my food log public, and it's frustrating when the days I eat the most properly...are the days I forget to log. And then I'm sure everyone thinks I'm killing myself by only eating instant meals (versus the reality; days where I'm eating instant meals are also when I have class AND work, and these are the days that are most likely for me to not eat whole food items). Also vacation= lack of internet=god why can't I remember to post in MFP?!
In response to a few posters who asked if I saw skinnyfat-shaming here; it isn't as huge a problem as being constant on every forum. It's usually a page or so in when someone is worried about an aspect of their body/regiment (I've only seen it 3-4 times and I did comment once, but then I worried I seemed to be supporting the idea of lack of wellness/fitness in changes of diet and I didn't want to start internet fights...)
Last but not least: I engage in activities that are hard to measure (foam weapon fighting, dancing around the apartment with my cats): I usually put ballroom dancing if it's constant but slow movement, and general dancing because it's the only thing I can think of that has bursts of fast movement in short periods of time.
The picture of this in my head is quite amusing! Cats and ballroom dancing aren't exactly things I've pictured together before.0 -

Ironically, this was during the RE-OPENING of the place. It was some sort of apple crisp thing, and the entire topping was basically made out of salt.

Confession: The 'Pushy Co-Workers' thread in Food & Nutrition is a real read. Wow, glad I am not the OP. I can only imagine the amount of people who want to ask questions but don't.

Me too. I don't like desert at all really, and never order it. I make cupcakes for my kids pretty often but have no interest in eating them myself. Give me steak and/or cheese any day0 -

I had planned for lunch today,
6 oz chicken thighs
25g kale
2.5 oz spring mix
1 chopped onion
6 grape tomatoes
2 hard boiled eggs - Cage Free Organic Fed, they're like 5.00 a dozen, love them.
2 Tbsp - Panera Raspberry Vinagrette.
What happened was the following
Director of Food and Beverage calls me up at 11:23.
Director: "Hey AOJ, there's a food broker I'm friends with that wants to show us some new stuff."
AOJ: "Cool, when?"
Director: "11:30 meet in the banquet kitchen, I'll be there around 11:45"
AOJ: "Uhhh, that's like now"
Director: "Yeah I'll see you there"
So what I ate was
1/2 Strawberry Rhubarb Muffin - 135 Calories
6 Grit Sticks - Kinda like cheesesticks but filled with Pimento Cheese and Corn Grits
Half a fork full of - Baked Potato Salad
half a fork full of - chicken salad - Premium, no dark meat
4 oz - natural cut french fry, no additives
3 oz - Pulled Pork
3 oz - Pork Rib Meat no bone
And the coup de grace - A hamburger patty, 8 oz, the bacon/pork/70%-30% beef (1000 calories just for the burger patty). I had to eat a bite, the flavor was so rich and delicious but to much to really eat by itself.
Blargh.

Excuse me, I just momentarily passed out from envy.0 -

They shot one of those not far from here. A group of my sister-in-law's neighbors went to the taping on the bad night, and said they were intentionally wiping down tables with greasy rags to make them sticky and standing around off-camera between taking orders and putting them in to make sure they'd all take too long.
I figured some of it was staged, but I didn't like the show as much after I had it confirmed.0 -

Ok, confession: I ran on the treadmill for 30 minutes straight yesterday at a good pace and was quite proud of myself since I am NOT a runner.
Anyway, beautiful day today, decided to go to the park and try to run there... couldn't bust out more than 15 minutes at a mere jog, ugh, such disappoint.
It sucks, because I have such great stamina... well for ddr anyway. I can play that game on heavy mode for hours straight and not get tired.
Fun note though, did find an awesome bike trail and did get to walk on a giant log over the river. Terrifying, but AWESOME. oh yeah...and pricker bushes. >.< nuuuu
I am the exact opposite. I can run for miles outside, but put me on a dreadmill and I'm fighting to do 1.5 miles.
I cannot do dreadmills. The last time I did, made it about 2 miles and was seriously dizzy when I got off. (I can run for hours outside though!) I am very thankful that my gym has an indoor track!0 -

My husband keeps a full beard and lets his hair grow out during the winter. Springtime- short hair and goatee. I'm always sad when he makes the transition.AngryViking1970 wrote: »ladybuggnorris wrote: »Confession 2: I do not understand peoples' obsession with beards (no offense "Tincan"...I think you are great and one of the main reasons I come back every day). When I see posts with actors pre and post beard, I ALWAYS think they are way better looking without the beard. Just not a fan, I guess. That being said, I haven't seen my husband without a goatee (not a REAL beard, I know) for over 12 years.
My husband goes full mountain man and grows a beard during hunting season. I have to admit, I'm always a little disappointed when he shaves it off.0 -

It's still working, but I just feel like it's not the "correct" way.

That is exactly the first thing I thought of when I read that! As kids we'd get sopapillas for desert and proceed to FILL in inside with honey. Um, doesn't work out all that well when you try to take that first (and all subsequent) bites. What a disaster! But, hey, we were kids, right? And it was a yummy mess!0 -
I don't call my beard a beard, I call it "thigh-liner."
Edit, that sounds way more crude than I intended, when I'm being playful and get a comment on my beard, I'll refer to it as my thigh-liner. I don't just stand around calling it that.0 -
