'by the rules'
small dinner plate.....sitting down at the table (a table for that matter), no distractions (that's a joke)....
This morning I tossed 2 TJ country muffins in the microwave and ate them in the bathroom with a cup of green tea while making myself presentable enough to drop off the kids at school....
I don't know if it's because I'm a SAHM of a 4/5yr old or my habits stink that badly
I have been able to loose the weight and keep it off for a year......I guess I just got to thinking...

I hav't' sat at my dining room table in months (Ma visited and she set it so....)
I almost always eat in the kitchen standing at the counter eating it as I make it
I dont treat food as an occasion,,,,fast fuel up and get back to whatever I was doing
cept usually on Sat night when I usually have a steak..then its sitting at the coffee table watchin the tube or buggin people here0 -
I don't eat sitting down except for dinner which I force myself to sit and eat with my daughter. The rest of my meals I am busy flying here and there, to work, to home to cook up a bite and away I go again. I always heard that we will grow taller if we stand a lot...LOL :flowerforyou:0

I don't follow the rules, either... I eat breakfast at the computer because it's the only time I get to "chat" with my fiance (he's deployed.) I might eat lunch at the computer, as well... if he's still up by then! And then dinner is usually in front of the TV. I'm home alone right now... so sitting at the big dining room table in the quiet all by myself is just kind of depressing.0

I don't eat by the rules! I eat both breakfast and lunch at work in front of my computer. (and the snacks in between) and dinner I eat in about 10 minutes or less at my coffee table while watching TV or reading. Oh...this (basically) single girl leads such an exciting life....0

We have no chairs in our apartment (last minute move-in and we're never here), so at home I either eat standing in the kitchen or sitting on the bed. At school I don't mind sitting at a table in the caf. It hasn't hindered my progress.0

breakfast is always in bed, lunch is usually here too with the computer. Dinner is always sitting down in the kitchen with DH. I like dinner time. Soon we'll be able to be outside!0

Breakfast with my partner at coffee table, lunch in front of Desperate Housewives, dinner is where ever.0

Breakfast is usually my slimfast yummy chocolate milk shake in front of my computer in the morning before I go teach. Lunch is also at the computer now that I think about it.........
Dinner is in the living room.
I really wish we ate at the dinner table more often. When we were growing up we sat at the dinner table about 80% of the time. It's kind of nice to sit around together and see how the day went.0 -
My kids are both in school so when I get up with them in the morning I wait for them to get out the door fix myself a bowl of cereal and then sit at my laptop and eat that while watching the morning news. I then proceed to go back to bed because I'm the one that is up till 1am all the time. When I get out of bed I turn my laptop back on and the TV, see what some friends are doing and then decide if I'm hungry or not. Most of the time I don't eat until like 2 or so and at that point its just something small to last till supper time which is our family's big meal. Our kids eat at their table while my husband and I eat in our recliners because our table is a mess and I don't think you can see a part of it. (working on it slowly) I have always been a breakfast person. Just can't live without it.0

Yeah, exactly what she said. :huh: :laugh:0 -
You're not alone Kim!
I eat breakfast in my room with my 3 y/o watching Dora or some other kid show, lunch on hand, walking back and forth cleaning up the toys b/c it's nap time for my 3 y/o after lunch and dinner we do eat at the table unless we've rented a movie and we'll eat in the LR.
Whatever feels right at the time.0 -
Dining room table? The one in the dining room? With the Beading stuff on it?
Not even a coffee table.
Breakfast in my living room with Las Vegas (the TV show) and log the day's food then, too.
All other meals at varying times and varying places between day's chores. I don't eat standing up, ever.
Last food of the day is in bed with a movie or other recorded show - small snack then lights out.
Single girl exciting life, too.0 -
