    Hummus. It didn't compute just how many calories of hummus I was eating during a "healthy" binge of veggies and hummus!

    Now I buy them in little 150kcal servings. Good for me and toddler!

    Hahaha that was my initial thought with the apples too. Figured it couldn't be that bad since it was a "healthy" binge lol.

    I swear, the last 30lbs I put on we're all "healthy" foods. I mean bananas and 0% Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey and a few walnuts? How bad can that be?

    (Answer: like 500kcal bad!)

    Same here lol. I didn't realize just how many calories are in fruit or greek yogurt so was convinced that since it was "healthy" there was no way to overindulge on those foods. 800 calories of fruit later.... Lol

    Well fruit is my friend most of them but I count them as meals and I limit banas to 2 max per day . I try to have some protein at night. I lost my first major weight doing that. When I started eating the food groups every meal many times not paying attention I gain weight. So I do best if I start off fruit then other food groups counting calories. I started this session off needing to lose 40+ pounds in March now I have a large 20+ pounds to go. I have evolved many and that helps me. I am flawless and steady improving!!! :-) :-)

    I like sweet things. I've eaten an entire jar of Speculoos Cookie Butter in one day before. Never again. I still like it, but apparently I'm not responsible w/it. So it stays away.

    I've bought those cookie butter cheese cake bites. I learned quickly that I would have to set aside a good 400 calories per night if they were going to be in the house.

    OMG....I've never heard of THOSE. Sheesh. Now, you know I'll have to at least look for them next time I'm in a Trader Joe's. I can touch the package.....then let my fingers linger as I walk away. *sigh*

    They're in the frozen section with the ice cream. They are good. I'm a freak so I added a little sea salt to them. Get them at least once! I think they're 90 calories for one tiny square haha. But if you put four or 5 together you practically have a slice of cake.

    Mine was more like mindless eating. I went to the gas station the other day, and I got a donut. This particular gas station gets their donuts from a local bakery that is SO good. I got to the register, and the lady looked at me and told me the donuts were buy one get one free after 3 o'clock, and it was 3:01, lol. This is not something to tell a woman that has PMS cravings I tell ya. Anyway, I caved and got the second doughnut. They were both gone before I got home, but man, were they worth it, lol. I have no idea how many calories they were...just the little cake donuts. But I logged them as 400 each as a guestimate. I probably way overestimated.
