    No I don't eat because food is free. I can control myself. But Booze...I never say no to free booze.
    QFT

    where does this happen? and is it fun? do we get to dress up? or see others dressed up? as pimps?

    I could arrange this.....

    No but I also don't hesitate to throw out leftovers. Used to think I shouldn't "waste" food but I realized if I put it in my body when I don't need it that I'm pretty much treating my body like a trash can. Free? Already paid for? Not reasons for me to eat it if I don't need the fuel.

    i agreed with you up until the left overs part - if you are eating healthy to become with and have healthy food left over from the night before then how are you treating your body like a trash can the next day? i'm all about left overs and i'll eat them until it's gone or it's gone bad.

    I am having to break myself of this habit and it's difficult. There have been a few very hard times in my life where I didn't know where the next meal was coming from. So now I'm struggling to not chipmunk any free food just because it's there.
    In for chipmunking. And my blue girlfriend.

    But yeah. It's always been super hard for me to turn down free food. I think it comes from the same place that makes it hard for me to not finish the food on my plate EVERY DAMN TIME.

    your girlfriend is BLUE?!?! how many blue slurpees did she HAVE yesterday :bigsmile: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    To be fair the sugar "free" slurpee option is pretty darn good and fairly low calorie.

    I always take free if I haven't already eaten. I wouldn't do 5 slurpies. Probably wouldn't do any slurpies, because it's not a meal I'd be replacing with something I bought with my own money. But whenever someone buys me lunch or dinner I always comply so I don't have to eat my own food later at home.

    where I work, breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, drinks and whatever you can think of is free. and being honest that's my biggest challenge toward losing weight.

    I usually cook small enough portions that there are no leftovers but, if I have leftovers that's great! One less meal for me to have to cook.
