Pop Tarts for breakfast? For shame!

Just had a coworker try to shame me for eating Pop Tarts for breakfast. He knows I'm trying to lose weight and told me I was using up my treat for an empty calorie breakfast.
I told him that actually I had prelogged my food for the day and that, far from not getting a "treat" I was having 2 girl scout cookies later. He had no response to that.
He has been doing full on low carb to lose weight, even though he loves pasta/bread/potatoes etc. so I think he is just jealous that I still get to eat what I want.
Never let someone shame you for doing what works for you! We all use different methods to lose weight, and the occasional pop tart never killed anyone. :drinker:

You can also lose weight faster by cutting off a limb.3 -
My fave are brown sugar and cinnamon Pop Tarts! Mostly because I live in Canada and we can't get them here. Honorable mentions to chocolate fudge and raspberry.
Sometimes I eat toaster strudels for dinner. Only 360 calories for two!2 -

They are my favorite, chocolatey, marshmallowy (it's a word) goodness wrapped in graham! However, I draw the line at having that as a breakfast food. Dessert or a snack? Fair game.

I think poptarts are gross but if you like them go ahead. No shame in eating food you like... except if you stole it.

best pre-race food ever! cause I can get them pretty much anywhere I travel in the US, especially if I'm in a hotel that doesn't offer breakfast in the am before1

I've met some people recently doing the low carb thing and they were both doing weekly "high carb days" and both siad they had vomiting and diarrhea on the cheat days. That sounds miserable. I don't care how well it's working. I would much quicker shame them than someone carefully planning a poptart into their day. Health doesnt have to be torture.5
