    So far today, 3 banana's and chocolate protein powder for breakfast. Then by 10 I was starving so cooked a frozen pizza. By 1 I was starving again so texted my wife to bring McDonalds home with her. Dinner I think will be mexican takeout.

    I'm at ~ 1900 calories for the day (before Mexican) but spent hours working in the yard so I have lots of room left and an aching back.

    I can (and have) eat myself sick on those. One food I can't hardly regulate.

    If I crave them badly I eat the whole bag with nacho cheese and log it as a very big meal. 25cents for each scoop of yummy cheese at the corner store.

    I start Keto and y'all post food porn of dessert. Not fair at ALL :P
    Husband and I just chilled on Saturday and went out to dinner at our favorite fancy-ish place; we split the charcuterie board as an app, I had a gin and soda and little fillet mingion medalions with bacon brussles sprouts and garlicky spinach. Couldn't do a sweet dessert of course so we each had a latte made with half and half. Guys a latte with half and half is LEGIT. I'm like seriously craving another.
    Also our waiter was French and called me "Madmoiselle" all dinner :D

    That's awesome. I want to be called Madmoiselle! lol.

    I LOVE Cheetos! I would eat them more often but they are the food that finally sent me to the emergency room for gallbladder surgery ☹️ Poor Cheetos, they weren't trying to hurt me. They were just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    im very short (4'10) so my TDEE is very low, so consequently im on a 1200 diet - I eat reasonably well, but i'll often have cookies, mug cakes and being at university means lots of drinks.

    Am I the only person here who doesn't like Cheetos? I mean, like totally hate and despise and loathe them? Like, makes me nauseous just thinking about them? Doritos, on the other hand... :yum:

    I try for 1200 often although today I'm doing 1400 but I feel your pain lol. I fit in a serving of xxtra flamin' hots, a couple firework oreos and a breakfast bar today (chocolate raspberry) but that's not typical. Usually I have one dessert or none. I'm more into savory/salty foods anyway though.

    You can't live without sweets - well, you CAN, but it'd be far less enjoyable that way!

    mug cakes.... YUM! Yes, those are delicious.

    I had jelly beans for lunch on Sunday. They fit my calorie goal and I figured - hey, they are beans, right? And aren't beans vegetables?

    See, I am all about the regular Cheetos, but don't like the flamin' ones.

    @rakowskidp Nacho Dorritos dipped in sour cream. You're welcome.
    @quiksylver296 Couple months ago husband and I found 'nacho cheese' flavor Cheetos at the international grocer. They were AMAZING.

    I've heard Nacho Doritos and cottage cheese. Haven't tried it, but it sounds intriguing.

    Ok if I rave about something healthy? I tried a "Moroccan beet green" salad this week, mainly as a way to avoid throwing out the greens when I was already using the beets in something else. The leaves and stems are separated and then sauteed (stems for 8 minutes, adding the leaves to the pan at the 5-minute mark) with about a teaspoon of oil, seasoning, and lemon juice. Then serve the salad cold or at room temperature.

    It was a hit at Saturday lunch and I had about a half serving left over. Stuck it on a veggie burger (Yves fake chicken patty) with hummus and pickled jalapeno and... OMG, where has this been all my life?????

    You are so much more adventurous than I am!

    Mmm they don't usually sell the beets with the green here... So I'll have to wait for the garden harvest. But I'm really bummed I can't try it today as that sounds amazingly good!

    Friday is my day I usually treat myself to whatever food I want. In the back of my mind I want a cheeseburger and fries, but the last time I had it I felt so guilty that I did not enjoy it. I just do not think it is really worth the calories for me. I think instead I will have fried rice and pan fried fish from a local korean/mexican restaurant. They also have delicious fried wontons. I decided to take out a sweet potato pie from the freezer that I made for last Thanksgiving, So delicious and so unhealthy, but worth every single bite.

    I mean the rice could be just as many calories lol depending on who makes it. You can have anything you want and I'm sure you'll be fine! it's ONE day! Just avoid eating like 5000calories lol

    Susie!!! I'm supposed to be cutting for my next competition!

    Oops. Sorry. You still love me, right?! ;)

    You know it!!! <3<3<3

    (It's actually fine. Because I'm not a cookie butter fan. I was just teasing you.)

    Not a cookie butter fan?! :o I feel like I never knew you at all! ;) Now, if cookie butter doesn't do the trick, I could always put up pictures of chocolate chip cookies or cheesecake. Or perhaps... Lemon bars?

    (Okay, not my own picture. I couldn't find it. But it WAS the same recipe that I got this picture from and they looked the same, so it counts, right?)

    I know, I know, I'm HORRIBLE. But I take your continued love for granted. ;)

    I actually had a small piece of a snickerdoodle caramel bar thing this morning. Someone's birthday at work.

    That is true, but after a burger and fries I am usually still hungry also. Maybe I inhale it and don't bother to chew it so I do not realize that I have eaten anything.
