Whoa is me!! I have managed to steer clear so far. Lord grant me the strength.......

    you can do it! stay strong!

    but hey, if you can't stay strong, just share an order with a friend (or more than 1 friend, less calories that way!) and log the calories and move on.

    on a side note i LOVE local carnivals and i am so jealous! i haven't had one come to my area in a while!

    Have something... or two somethings. Just don't eat all of the somethings! You are an alive human being who deserves to enjoy the foods they love - a little bit won't kill you (nor will it cause you to gain much/any weight unless you overdo it)
    Just take an extra walk, swim an extra lap or jog an extra half mile - whatever your exercise pleasure is (if you need to make yourself feel less "guilty")

    Take a bag of celery and sit in the corner and munch them one by one.

    And bring along a jar of peanut butter for them

    That's very calorific.

    I consider it to be "healthy" calorific and it would be more satisfying than plain celery.

    You can't take a joke, can you? I'll play.

    I consider poland springs clear water very healthy. Zero calories, grasshopper. Zilch ;)

    Yeah but water dips have like zero nutritional value. Give me something zero calorie and nutrient dense. Then you'll have a "super food".

    A multivitamin? Crush it up, add a dash of said spring water. VOILA a nutritional zero calorie dip. YUM.

    Bahahahah just keep it on the hush hush before Dr Oz hears about it!
