    Me too!

    Skyline Chili

    ( the sodium for one normal sized meal was over 3800 grams!!:noway: )
  • Golden Coral cured me of that forever...I got such severe food poisoning :sick: from them one time, and I called (just to let the manager know not ask for anything) and was told there was NO WAY I got sick from them and I would have to file a claim with their health service dept or some such:grumble: ...I was so offended...told the guy I didn't want anything just to let them know...what a DORK!:explode:

    That is how I was cured of fast foods. I was driving from philly to boston and stopped to use the facilites at McDs. I thought, WTH I will eat a cheeseburger...and might as well have fries and filet o fish. I threw up all night! I think I had motion sickness...........but that was in August and I have not even THOUGHT about a fast food burger since!!:laugh: :laugh:

    2 words for me- chocolate cheesecake
    A well wishing customer brought the most beatiful chocolate cheesecake to my work. It haunted me all day until I finally gave in and had 800 calories and 57 grams of fat! It made me feel sick when I logged it tonight!

    All you can eat buffet, mmmmm I'm staved! Haven't eaten since 1:00 :sad: I work late on Wed don't get off till 9:00. Can't wait to get home, my hubby has a chicken taco salad that I save calories for :wink:

    I love Golden Corral... in fact, I went there just before my last business trip. Of course, I always load up on salad and veggies and then I go for Chicken and Salmon. Now... I'm a dude and as such, I have a few more calories to take in.... and, I also will do a Brinner.... or is it Dunch.... and combine the last two meals of the day into one. If you're there before 4pm, you get lunch prices too.
  • I am from the west coast and we dont have Golden Corral but I got to have a chance this last summer to eat there. I went to SC with a friend. My husband and I have a name for places like that.....hog trough. I cant stand buffet food. It grosses me out! Yuck! I only ate there because my friends family was meeting up there.

    Actually I'm not affraid of that buffet- i go maybe once a month- or every other month with the family to a buffet and i'm very capabele of eating a healthy variety.. Just b/c they have " all the bad stuff " doesn't mean i have to have it on my plate. They have a nice choice of fish filets, fresh veggies, steamed veggies, fresh fruits, - etc.. you can manage to eat at this kind of buffet - way better than at a mc d.'s or some other " hell " .. I don't eat at the fast food places - ever ! ..


    And one thing that did catch my eye on this topic is " my diet " - maybe you need to re-thing your goals etc.. you shouldn't be in the " diet- mind set " .. you need to start ( if you are not allready ) healthy changes/habits for life , a " diet " .. is a temporary thing.. i just banished that word from my dictionary.. have huge arguments with the ppl who try to convince me that i'm on a " diet " " are you stil on your diet " dmnt i'm not on a diet ! Diet's are " 2-3 weeks " a month.. i have been doing this changes now ( next month 3 years _) name me one " diet " you can stick to for that amount of time !

    We should not allow ourselves to think that way - diet- is a " depriving " word.. we are learning and practicing a new healthy lifestyle .. :flowerforyou:

    Learn the lesson from this mistake, - why did you do it ? what made you do it ? what will you do in the future to prevent mistakes like this ? what could have helped you to avoid it ? etc.. don't let this mistake go without a lesson - use it for future reference.. and move on.

    I have never been to one, either, but lately they've had commercials on for them (must be whatever cable sports show my boys are watching). If it's a buffet, ick. My boys like Granny's Old Country Buffet. They only go without me, cuz I won't go near those. If that is what the Golden Corral is like - forget it.
