Take your guess!!!

Hokay, so my husband who just yesterday I said was amazing and helping me on my diet...Just came home from a TDY and brought home one of these...I only ate part of it, but I touched the thing...That is the worst part! I have been so good!



::sigh::

He promised we'd burn the calories... ...but I have no clue how to log it in to my food chart.

It's a "TGI Friday's Brownie Obsession." I can't find the calories anywhere...And apparently this place does not like to offer nutrition information. Anyone have ideas?

Doozie

OMG I just licked my computer! That looks so delicious.
Sorry I can't help with how many calories it has though....

aaubrey

oh gawd...that looks good i dont think anyone would blame you. I would deconstruct it. The brownie, the icecream, the nuts, and the sauce. Add it all together round up and then divide it by what you ate...is that cookies in there too?? wow :bigsmile:

tparkin

Could you try to log in seperate items ie. brownie,chocolate sauce, ice cream etc.. My husband is the same. He is a terrific support, but sometimes he'll bring me treats. I know he is truly doing something nice but it definately doesn't always help with the chocolate cravings. Of course he is a tennis pro so he never has to worry about calories.

Have fun burning those calories

PrincessLaundry

Ya...Why is my husband bringing me "treats"??? I'm not a pet? Sheesh...

I know he says he wanted to be nice...but he's going to nice me back into my double digit pants! GRRRRRR!!!

I would like the public to know about a potential dessert disaster. TGI Fridays has a dessert called the Brownie Obsession. The customer service refuses to disclose the amount of calories in this dessert. I recently learned that the Brownie has 1190 calories that doesn’t include the 1 1/2 cups of Haggen Das Ice cream approx. 450 calories, nor does it include the chocolate and carmel covering the top along with the nuts. In total this dessert is above 2000 Calories and should be disclosed to customers not kept a secret.

PrincessLaundry

Oh man...

I have a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNGGGGGGGGGGGGG night of burning calories ahead of me. LOL

I'm going to start now! YIKES!!!

Can't be good when a restaurant refuses to talk about the nutritional information in their food!

Just looking at that thing sends my blood sugar sky high :sick:

PrincessLaundry

I entered into the food log as...

2640 calories...but thank goodness I didn't eat that much!!!

However, I'm out for a run...getting dressed...I can't even take a swig of caffeine so I can run longer...lol

ugggg...

Thanks MFP friends. :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

I just want to cry...

Your av just made me ovulate!! Too cute!! :smooched:

areay

I heard on the news that in New York they are going to start putting the calories on all menus. Everyone should be doing that!!!

Healthier_Me

*sigh*
Man that looks yummy.
My hubbz brings home "treats" once in a while.
Somtimes it's a huge chocolate macadamia nuts white chocolate chunks cookie or it's a huge double chocolate brownie. And it's always when I'm craving chocolates so ofcourse I'm gonna eat it.

Burn those cals girl! Show him why it's a bad.. well.... good idea to bring those yummy treats home!

GrnEyz

I agree. They put the cal content of the GOOD foods, but not the bad....thats how you know they are REALLY bad! I recently found out that those thick bacon burgers from Chili's have 1200 calories in it! thats not including the fries that come with it! OMG

PrincessLaundry

Well, I did go running and burned over 650 calories...

I made my hubby go with me...It went by quickly and was more fun with him running along side me. WHEWH!!! I didn't burn off the entire brownie nightmare, but at least I am drinking my water, went running and he learned a lesson too!

DO NOT FEED THE WIFE JUNK!!!



Can I just say...the dessert was NOT worth it! No wonder I'd never been to TGI Friday's before! GRRRRR!!!!

Healthier_Me

We should do a NO JUNK FOOD CHALLENGE b/c I really REALLY need it!

beep

Don't log it..... just consider it your plateau buster!

PrincessLaundry

This was my first fall off the calories and junk wagon.

What irritates me the most is that I figured about 800 calories for the entire dang thing. Then I cut it in half, didn't eat part of the top, left the sauce on the side, and munched it.

I'm okay with cutting most junk food in half or 1/4 and splitting with the kiddos...I have no clue why I wasn't thinking tonight.

I like the "plateau buster" idea. :bigsmile:

I totally need to get over it and move on. All in favor say, "Aye!"

You don't know how to log what???
The way your going to burn it off or the food it's self??? :laugh: :bigsmile:
xxoxoxxoox LOL!

I'm tellin ya, I had a couple days with that darned birthday cake (we had lots of birthdays in April and May) and believe it or not, I think the jump in calories actually helped me lose weight. Back to that zig-zagging calorie post.....

How's your chin?

PrincessLaundry

Thank you beep!!! I'm glad you brought it up about the different calorie days. That knocked me in the head and well, I'll just keep logging, moving, and eating healthy and I'm sure it will all be okay. WHEW!

Chin is doing pretty good... My knees started hurting when I ran, so I just lightened my pace and that helped! I'm still bruised on my knees. What a goof. LOL

Thanks again all!

My sister and I used to play a game where we would lick the pictures in the magazines (eww) and pretend we were eating the fun food :laugh:

CyclingDiva

P.S. did you tell Mark "THANKS ALOT" now after him being gone and you picking up the slack, with the kids, the house work...ect! He gets to sit back and relax while you do ALL the work! What is up with that?

I think he did it on purpose LOL!!!

PrincessLaundry

LOL I'm just thankful he ran with me...I think I would have given up 10 minutes into my run had he not pushed me.

He promised even before the run to never do it again unless we agree to the munchie. WHEWH!!!

I want to know about your trip!!!

TNTPete

He promised we'd burn the calories... ...but I have no clue how to log it in to my food chart.

Okay so mind in the gutter - immediately, if my husband suggested "burning off the calories" after a TDY we're not hitting the pavement, if yaknowwhatImean.. Secondly, I thought - hmm wonder if you could log those type of activities - fitlinx had it in their system...

PrincessLaundry

Someone told me here that they don't consider it a workout unless they do a lot of sweating. :grumble: I consider going to the end the mailbox a workout some days...LOL Hokay, I'm not that bad...but still!
