    I'd be on a liquid diet: Tanqueray and tonic with a lime all day long. I could EASILY hit my 1340 calorie allotment. ;-) Oh well...almost the weekend!

    I hear you, a Moscow Mule, NZ white wine, AU red wine, and Maragritas. Any food would go well with those.

    Well I was originally coming to this thread to say that I'm satisfied with what I ate today, and wouldn't change a thing!

    Then I started reading everyone else's replies and decided I just wanted to eat Five Guys and pancakes for the rest of the day.

    WOOOOOOWWWWWW!!!!

    This post really put it into perspective after looking at everybody's calorie counts for the 'what ifs'....I know that there have been days I've eaten like this and never thought twice about the calories I was consuming....but seeing it written out....YIKES!!!

    No freaking wonder I gained all this weight!!!!

    I did eat what I wanted today, samosas and Thai vegetarian fried rice for lunch, haven't decided on dinner yet (I'd love a plateful of pupsas de queso con loroco but there isn't a decent pupuseria in Ottawa), hmmmmmm maybe jerk chicken with rice & peas????

    I think it would go like this.

    Breakfast - 2 slices toast, 2 eggs, mushrooms, grilled tomatoes, hash browns.

    Lunch - Smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel, giant chocolate chip cookie, large soya latte.

    Dinner - Pizza Express Calzone, mozzarella garlic bread, chocolate fudge cake with mascarpone.

    Snacks - Peanut M&Ms, Pint of Ben & Jerry's chocolate brownie ice cream.

    Probably somewhere in the region of 5800 calories.
    I wouldn't be able to manage it all. The dinner and snacks, probably.
    This has never in my life been a typical day for me.

    ooo, this is such a dangerous question to ask a pregnant lady.

    My day would start off with a Starbucks Java Chip Frappacino and a big fat cinnamon roll from Cinnabon. If I didn't slip into a sugar coma after that, Chipolte burrito for lunch, and an enormous plate of spaghetti and meatballs for dinner with Godiva chocolate cheesecake for dessert. Snacks would consist of Doritos and fresh baked warm cookies. I'm guessing all that would run be about 4,000-5,000 calories. I would NEVER do this, and I'm sure it would make me sicker than a dog, but it's fun to think about it. I keep telling myself there is food in heaven, but no calories, so maybe someday.

    Eggs over easy, bacon, and buttered toast for breakfast (600 calories)

    Thin crust chicken and veggie pizza for lunch (two slices) (500 calories)

    Spaghetti with chicken and cheese for dinner (around 600 calories)

    Snacks of brie and grapes, pop tarts, ice cream, yogurt ... totaling around 1200

    Hmmm, think I need to pick up some brie so I can have my ultimate ideal day. Would probably have to up some portions to meet my calorie goal

    Had a super-yummy pesto veggie sandwich on a bagel this morning, so I'll keep that - 425 calories

    Qdoba burrito with fajita veggies, black beans, cheese, guacamole and lots of salsa and chips crunched in - 830 calories

    TGI Fridays Cajun Chicken & Shrimp Pasta minus the chicken & shrimp and add extra red peppers - around 1400, but to be fair I can only eat about half of it at a sitting, so I'm going to say 725 calories

    Small box of vanilla Hello Pandas with a Hello Kitty Ramune - 390 calories

    Grand Total - 2370 calories, and I'd go to bed feeling completely disgusted with myself

    Ugh, that is 5,000 calories even. The gross part is that there were some days I definitely would have eaten that many calories.
    Looking at all the numbers together just scares me.

    Oh yeeeeeah, this is MY kind of day-dreaming:

    Breakfast: Ihop red velvet pancakes with a glass or 2 of chocolate milk.

    Brunch: 2 egg omelet loaded with cheese and ham and slathered in salted butter.

    Lunch: American Dream Roll, Japanese Bagel Roll with cucumbers, and Kenosha Roll from Soon's Sushi Cafe in Kenosha, WI

    Dinner: Skillet Queso from Chili's. Mexican Gumbo with tortilla chips and guacamole from Q'Doba.

    Dessert: Cookies. Lots of them. And cake batter frozen yogurt with caramel topping from Urban Culture in Kenosha, WI.

    Midnight binge: Papa John's pizza with garlic sauce and sprinkled in cheap parmesan cheese.

    And of course, all throughout the day, Loopy Martinis (Loopy vodka, blue curucao, and coffee creamer. It tastes like leftover milk from Fruit Loops.)

    Pretty sure I just gained 10lbs writing that out.

    Macoroni Cheese - a huge plate of it - with cauliflower and sweetcorn added. It's just about the only thing I've had to cut out completely simply because it's too calorific to fit in and too moreish to just eat a small portion of.

    Oh my gosh, I can't believe I forgot cupcakes! We have a Norweigan bakery that just opened downtown that offers a spiced vanilla cupcake with elderflower frosting. How amazing does that sound? I love weird flavors.

    Garlic naan. Pita and hummus. Pasta. Caramel bread pudding.

    I don't care about the calories, I just miss bread. It's honestly harder for me to avoid starch than sugar.
