    I am a foodie. I love watching Food Network and Travel Channel. I'd add the Cooking Channel if it wouldn't raise my cable bill another $20, because I swear, I've seen every show that's not brand new on both the previous channels. All the Man vs Food, Diners, Drive-ins & Dives, No Reservations w/ Anthony Bourdain, and Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern. I love going out and looking at and trying new food... which is strange, because my palette was limited to grilled cheese sandwiches and hot dogs as a kid.

    That would be my biggest challenge. I love to go out on the weekends with the bf and try a brand new place to eat. I usually have whatever I want. And I do feel guilty afterward, when I shouldn't. I'm working on it. It's not something I'm willing to give up, so I'll just have to work it into my life. There's no use feeling guilty for something you enjoy. :)

    ALL of this too since my TVs are all set to the Food Network as we speak. ^^

    There's an italian place here that has the most sodium loaded, butter laden chicken piccata I've ever seen for $6.95, with salad & garlic butter rolls.... O-M-G. I want some so badly sometimes, but when I drive by the place, I can feel my ankles swell and the sodium hangover headache, so I go on by. One day I'll be able to walk in and have something a bit more healthy, but not yet.

    I have a hard time resisting french fries . . . I would eat them at every meal if I could! When we go out to restaurants I have started ordering meals that don't come with fries as a side . . . . so far the only place that it has been really hard to do that at was Red Robin, and thats only because they have free refills on their fries and just drop them on your table whenever they walk buy.

    The donuts my new project manager brought in to a meeting this morning. They sat in front of me for the entire meeting. There were three of my favorites. I decided I'd rather spend my calories on something else.

    Took the kids and the husband to McDonalds last night, that Big Mac and fries with a dr pepper sounded so good (and looked good on the menu), but I remembere my wigh in form that morning and was down 2 pounds so I refrained and then after getting their food drove to Subway. Still ate out but only had 350 calories instead of 1500. Good Luck to all of ya'll!! (I also try to remember before I eat that saying "a moment on the lips, a lifetime on the hips")

    Before I went out yesterday I had an awesome salad for dinner. My girlfriend decided she was hungry and made me sit in Five Guys while she waited an hour and twenty minutes for a burger the size of her head. She then ate it in the most excruciatingly slow manner and smacked her lips with every bite.

    I just sat back and imagined slapping her with the hamburger patty. It kept me entertained AND I didn't want to eat it. :laugh:

    Red Velvet Cheesecake! *my mouth just watered... lol* I've always been a sucker for the sweet stuff. At the Cheesecake Factory they have all those delicious deserts on display. For fear of putting it in my food diary, I victoriously walked away!

    There is a very large Snickers bar in my freezer. It has been there since Xmas and I am waiting until I reach my goal to eat it. Hope my SO doesn't decide to grab it first.

    I've driven to the Sonic Drive In before because I wanted to try sweet potato tater tots, sat there cried and pulled away.

    I lust for Zio's everytime I drive by though but that's like 1,000 carbs and 10,000 calories per visit.
