I regret the one I just had. What a waste! A foot long roast beef from Subway. It wasn't even good. I was really going for the bread. I love bread. But I wish I hadn't eaten it. And it was 820 calories! I could have had fajitas or something.

What have you had lately that you wish you hadn't?

    No, but I've only had 3 really, and I barely went over my daily calories only one time.. and they kept me full. I'm pretty picky though, if I'm going to splurge on something, it's gotta be good, lol.

    Exactly! It should be worth the splurge :/

    Yes :sad: I always end up eating WAY too much on "cheat meals" so I try to stay away from those altogether. The most recent was baked goods:love: My husband bought some different varieties of brownies and cookies from a bake sale, I said I'd only take a bite of each to taste them.. Yeah, that didn't happen. I ended up binging and eating all of it! :noway: So, I now know that sweets (mostly chocolate) is my evil weakness. haha. But it's okay, just pick up from where we left off, eating healthy again! :smile:

    I don't do cheat meals, but do have the occasional high calorie splurge (KFC, Chinese takeaway). It's got to be worth it though, for the enjoyment. I really hate having a high calorie meal that I didn't really enjoy because I was trapped in an airport or something.

    Yes but that is because they are loaded with dairy and I pay dearly for it every time!

    Two days ago I bought enough Taco Bell to feed two or three people (two doritos tacos, bell grande nachos, cheesy fiesta potatoes). I was starving. The guy at the drive through put three sporks in my bag. I only needed one spork.

    Been regretting that ever since...

    I only regret it, when I don't enjoy it...

    Healthy or not, why waste calories on food you don't enjoy.

    Anytime I eat something NOT healthy I regret it (even if it's 5 hershey kisses)...after it's down my throat I'm thinking what's the point of eating it??? Last year on my birthday I allowed myself to have a big ole piece of cake and ice cream, an hour later it was coming back up, I assume because my body was like "what is this crap you just put in me!?!?" and I was so sick so now I really try not to eat bad food as it makes me sick.

    I only regret it if the meal wasnt what I expected. Although I regret 'healthy' meals too if it tasted bad or was bad quality.

    I totally don't regret the KFC that I just ate because 1. It was delicious and filling, and 2. I have almost DOUBLED my BMR so far today through running 10k the walking into town and back, a couple of miles each way. Then there was supermarket shopping followed by takeout. Nyom.

    BTW, a reminder: Don't food shop when you're hungry. Oops. ;)

    I had Subway yesterday too and it was not good at all. It wasn't a treat meal though as I still eat everything.

    For a cheat meal or treat, if I take one bite and don't think "OMG this is SOOOO worth it", I don't eat it. That's the only time I regret eating anything, when it wasn't worth the calories. Life's short, don't eat food you don't like.
