    Wow! I put potatoes in my smoker for about 4hrs, then finish them in the oven for half an hour to crisp up the skin. It's unbelievable how much flavor a little smoke adds to them. Best potatoes I've ever had, and no more calories than a regular baked potato.

    You guys don't have Jason's Deli? It's a backed potato, loaded up with sandwich fixin's. OMG LOVE. I mean, I used to love .. I haven't had one in ages because I knew it had to be pretty bad.


    McSkillet Burrito from McDonalds - like 700 calories! It's a breakfast burrito! I was suprised by that. I know MFP hates McDs, but I still do not.
  • Donatos thin crust pepperoni. I could easily eat half the pizza with the thin crust and that would be a whopping 1,300 calories!

    Loaded Cheese fries from Speakeasy 958 calories PER SERVING!!!!!!!! (serves about 4)
  • jennawithcoffee you look AMAZING!!! great job on the weight loss!!!
  • lol how can you call it a baked potato, when the main food source is fat... if 90% of the calories are coming from sour cream and cheese you might as well say i had fat with a bit of potato on the side

    some scope is required when you're eating

    I once worked at a coffee shop and we sold a honey bran muffin. It was by far the most popular because everyone thought it was really healthy. Some man came in and got it once and asked for butter on the side because he didn't want it to be "too healthy" I couldn't help but laugh at him. One muffin itself was about 780 calories.
  • sometimes i indulge, but i have to deduct a huge calorie amount when i do from my day's total. ate a jimmy john's tuna 648 calories and 1500 g of sodium and you really feel it with all that salt. that day i just drowned it in water and it's not like i'll never eat out again....just have to be prepared to pay for it one way or another
