    Beer, Wine, Margaritas.

    I've been doing without on most days, because I just can't justify the empty calories to myself.

    Every so often, we go out for homemade ice cream. A waffle cone, dipped in chocolate with one scoop of cherry wowza ice cream is about 600 calories. And worth every single one of them. :heart:

    Nuts. 1 oz isn't very many but for almost 400 calories 2 servings is way too much for my daily intake.

    If you like dark chocolate I recomend these

    Emerald - Cocoa Roast Almonds Dark Chocolate Flavor

    1/4 (which is about 26 almonds) is 150 calories and they are delicious.

    For me it's Mc Donald's french fries and chicken wings...

    If I have the fries I have to have a salad or snack wrap with it to offset the insanity..


    Now the chicken wings... I have those, fries and bleu cheese dressing.. and I LOVE them.

    But instead of once a week or every other week it's now maybe once a month.


    Oh how could I forget hamburgers... I tried veggie burgers and a black bean burger but it's not the same thing... at all.

    Today it would have been a piece of this ricotta, raspberry and white chocolate cake/pie I had after I had cycled quite a bit for a day out, I don't usually have lunch at all, but I had eggs on toast as well. The cake was amazing, but no idea the calorie count as it was a traditional sort of tearoom/cafe in the New Forest.

    Usually my highest calorie count comes from my daily treat or from my greek yoghurt dessert which is fage 0% greek yoghurt, tbsp low sugar jam, pb2 or milled flax and some mixed seeds all mixed up. I have it every night.

    protein, alcohol and desserts!

    If I'm in control of the cooking, it's the protein and alcohol that add up as I have a savoury tooth - but when I am being hosted by someone else, I find they make huge desserts - so whilst I've filled up on my preferred protein, I still feel required to have the dessert :-(

    Today it was a big ole plate of nummy Southern food from a local bbq place. I really, really have an addiction to pulled pork. I cycled my little heart out this evening to work it off!

    Other days, it's mostly french fries and sweets. But mostly french fries. I can't live without them. D:

    My favorites these days are flavored almonds, kettle potato chips, and cereal. Even my protein drink has extra powder in it. What's with that? Why do I over do it? Next batch will be limited and maybe more ice than usual.

    Hands down - granola. I have it every other day for breakfast with plain Greek yogurt and blueberries and raspberries. My go-to is Bakery On Main gluten-free Cranberry Pecan....300 cals for 3/4 cup. Isn't that what ice cream is???? Oh well, it's really good granola.

    Protein. I have at least 100g/day. Every meal is focused around what protein I intend on consuming. Tonight I had a seafood pasta dish at a restaurant. I wasn't entirely sure how much of the pasta I actually ate (four or five forkfulls, not sure how much that *actually* equated to, but I erred on the heavy side) but my estimate made it the one time all week my carb intake outweighed the protein intake of the same meal in terms of calories.

    edit: I've seen a few people say "coffee creamer", but my half-and-half is one of the lowest calorie hits in my diet. How much cream are you putting in your coffee?! I use 1-3tbsps and at MOST it's 59 calories. If I can't make room for 60 calories in my diet someone should shoot me, because I'm better off dead.
