NO!
You can wear judgypants, but not ones that require an additional seat.6 -

I'm going to wear my big girl pants.
I've heard alcohol is involved and I wouldn't want to be thought of as under age.
(Not enough laughs for that one)

Habits are created over time. Habits create your lifestyle. Small changes lead to big changes. Personally, I firmly believe that logging your food and tracking your calories can be the basis for healthy change in your body, whether it's losing weight or gaining muscle.
So if someone has made it a habit to track their food and calorie intake to help create a healthier body, why would they give up that habit? If not tracking helped to gain and maintain an unreality body, why wouldn't the inverse also hold true? Do we think professional athletes aren't, at least loosely, tracking what goes into their body? If someone who is in peak physical condition has to do it, why would the average person be able to get away with not tracking?
Granted, there are people who can intuitively eat and I am not knocking their experience. But why *kitten* on someone's parade because they are using, as someone else so elegantly put, a too that helped them be successful, because they want to continue to be successful.
I know this seems like a secondary argument to be upset about but it's really the same thing that OP was pissy about. "They aren't losing/maintaining weight the same way I am. Obviously they are wrong. Let me publicly shame them so I can feel superior and everyone will see how wrong they are. Everyone will see how right and amazing I am and they'll all flock to me with adoration and applause."
That's a fine looking high horse. What ya got in the stable?
Edited for clarity/spelling.

We also have a few nice fault finding frocks if anyone's still looking for an outfit.14 -
Just a note. My wardrobe is strewn all over the bedroom floor trying to decide what to wear.
Good job the dietary needs are simple, and I'm already ahead on the drinks- I'm in training for the event.
Cheers, h.

^ This. Absolutely this. It is my Not So Humble Opinion that it is (almost) mandatory to includes one's favorite sweets and goodies in any weight loss plan, if the weight loss is going to be sustainable over the long haul. I am really glad to see that all the umbrage and outrage, and all the silliness (intentional and otherwise), on this thread have helped someone to see that calorie-dense foods are, at the end of the day, foods; and can be integrated into one's menu plans right alongside one's other edibles.

Those raisins would be amazing in my mom’s raw apple cake.3 -
If it’s not too late to sign up for the hand basket/bus/potluck, I’ll bring baked macaroni and cheese. It will have sharp cheddar, havarti and Brie in the sauce and be topped with browned, buttered breadcrumbs. There seem to be enough desserts already.17

It feels like cultural appropriate to say 'sarcastic sari' but the alliteration is too alluring.
I want to buy my ticket onto the handbasket with ribeye steaks off my smoker. I agree with @beaglady that we have enough desserts. 11 -

Welcome! This thread is pretty standard for what happens when someone tries to judge us for eating things that they believe we shouldn't eat. There is also a memorable thread somewhere where we wrote songs about bread, and one where we planned a road trip to eat pecan rolls.
Weight loss is all about staying within your calorie goal. You can eat whatever you want as long as you're not exceeding that goal. So there really is no reason to deprive yourself of things you want to eat. As you can see, a lot of the old timers here not only eat dessert, but also get irritated when they're judged for eating dessert

No such thing as enough desserts!!!!!

I've been studiously avoiding posting in this thread again, but in honor of "sarcastic sari", I have to bring along some savory samosas (pakoras, dosas, and other yummy Indian snacks). I am half Indian, and no journey would be complete without our delicious cuisine.

If you feel unwell, there's nothing wrong with eating whatever is appealing and will sit well. :bigsmile:
Oh, I feel you, after riding 85.5 miles this weekend, we went to a fish fry on Sunday and I have not eaten that sort of food volume, let alone fried foods since Valentine's Day.
So Sunday looked as follows:
Even after 3500 calories, I still had some left over. I don't trust the estimates, so I try to eat back only 1/2 of the exercise calories.
But I woke up with a sour stomach yesterday, and couldn't stand to eat much. I did leave the house as my wife was prepping for her colonoscopy, so I tried lunch at Chick-fil-a, but didn't really feel any better.
So the rest of the day was ice cream sandwiches and cheerios. I was only able to eat about 1/2 the Peanut Butter Sandwich.
Sad, as today is my prep day for the colonoscopy, so nothing but Italian Ices, broth, Jello and the one can of Chicken Noodle Soup allowed.
I did feel better today, but am not allowed to eat until probably after lunchtime tomorrow.
I will not feel guilty about anything I eat on Wednesday, that's for sure.9
