    I ordered a large pizza when I was home alone. I told myself I would eat a few slices and save the rest for later. I finished it within 4 hours.

    Definately been there! I washed it down with 3 beers.

    I

    Samoas! They are def. the crack cocaine of food...

    I must know more about this cookie! LOL. We (in Canada) only get the vanilla/chocolate or peppermint ones.

    Also, the cake icing and marshmallow cream (not together) I love the marshmallow cream and have a huge bag of marshmallows at home ~looks at Zebra Head~ :bigsmile:

    Yeah - I have a few! Way back when, in the year I gained 100 lbs, Pizza Hut had their "buy a medium, get one for $4" deal. 4 - 6 times a MONTH I would order 2 deep pan pizzas and my little boy would eat 1 or 2 slices and when I got done, there would be 2 slices left if I was lucky. A lot of times there was only 1 and that only because I saved it for AJ. And I wondered why I never had any money for anything??

    Oh, same time frame, we were making little french bread pizzas, and I ate a whole loaf of french bread, sliced and turned into mini pizzas. Scary! Good, but scary! I couldn't do it now - and that's a good thing :laugh:

    Off topic a little bit but I miss girl scout cookies SO MUCH! Used to live in the States but moved to NZ when I was 14...oh the thin mints! And the peanut butter ones! Drool...

    We have Girl Guide biscuits here but you can get 2 kinds:

    - Plain (just a plain cookie, like a wine biscuit (don't know if you get them over there?)
    - Plain with a tiny layer of chocolate on the bottom.

    Terrible! I mean, good, because I'm never tempted to buy them and even if I had them in the house I wouldn't eat them, but I miss the real thing :(

    On topic - I can't believe I didn't weigh more than I did, with some of the regular habits I had:
    I used to play soccer on Sunday mornings, we'd finish and I'd be home (and hungry!) by about noon...so probably once every 3-4 weeks I would order a whole large pizza and curl up on the couch and eat the whole thing by myself...
    My husband and I used to order two large pizzas between us for dinner, and sometimes we'd get garlic bread too...

    I was once in a rush between work and classes and had no lunch, so stopped at a grocery store to get something to eat, bought a whole strawberry tea cake (like a coffee cake but with strawberry jam on it basically) and ate the whole thing sitting in my car.

    When I was pregnant with my 14 month old, I kicked up with gestational diabetes. Since chocolate was a no no I thought I was being real smart by getting the diabetic/sugar free chocolate. I bought a bunch of it and ended up sitting on the couch munching on it, only to realize I had eaten like 5 packages, or 10 of the peanut butter cups. For those of you who don't know, they use sugar alcohols to substitute for real sugar in that stuff and it can cause some digestive upset. Well,suffice to say, within a couple of hours I was confined to the bathroom and it was a bad bad scene. The worst part was, I continued to eat those dang things...but I only ate two a day after that! LOL After Matthew was born, I couldn't stomach the stuff.

    These don't sound bad at all. I'm not even going to say mine!

    As for the cookies, I hate them! Gross. :) I remember the double dark chocolate ones or the lemon powered ones. They were the best.

    Edit: Gah! Don't mention guacamole! I love, love, love avocados, but they're so fattening. I think a few months ago I "scheduled" a cheat meal for next week and I just remembered it. I might have to splurge a little on guacamole now.

    haha! I thought I was the only one who ate salad toppings by themselves. Mine is an entire box of croutons. I ate them like they were chips, dipping them in ranch!!! Holy smokes I dont wanna think about how horrible for me that was!!

    The right kinds of fat are good for you and avocado is definately one of them. When I'm not traveling I eat half an avocado almost every day.

    In grade school I was caught (more than once) hiding in my closet eating a jar of cake frosting.

    My boyfriend invited over his boss and her husband recently. When they arrived her husband recognized me. Apparently my pizza a day habit made me notorious at Domino's (he used to be one of their delivery drivers).

    Well I can think of a few. One is when I was in New York last year having the worlds best cheese cake at Roxy's in Time Square. It was such a big piece and so amazing that my daughter and I went back for a second piece just a few hours later.

    Or there is the time my mom and I ate nothing for super but several batches of fresh fried french fries!! We still laugh about that.

    I have gotten a box of special k bars from Costco and eaten so many at once that I lost count. I am a binge eater and it can get really bad. I could top most of these but I will let you all have your moment, lol.

    I got sick last October and I was really worried about what it was because I was so dizzy when I walked so I was pity parting like crazy. My bf and I had just bought a box of ice cream sandwiches. We had each had one so there were about 8 left. I ate the whole box that day.

    My worst was a long time ago. We had moved from London to the south west UK and for 3 years I had no McDonald's because the closest was now 120 miles away instead of half a mile away.

    So...three years...I pass my driving test.... guess what happened?

    Took my brother with me and we drove 120 miles... here it comes :embarassed: .... I had 5 burgers, 2 chips and 2 larges cokes. HE had 6 burgers, 2 fries and 2 large cokes :drinker:

    After we finished I turned straight around and headed back home. A 240 mile round trip to stuff my face full of something I had missed badly for 3 years.

    Damn... I had it bad then :laugh:

    I've had several of these, lol. As a former bulimic, I could pack away some FOOD! When I binged, I would do it on fast food so that I could be on the move and not get caught...... (Also, this was back in high school, more than 12 years ago)

    Heres how it would go...

    First stop: McDonalds
    2 Cheeseburgers, a small fry, and large coke. Oh, and an apple pie, sometimes a hot fudge sundae.

    Next: Burger King
    BK Broiler combo, king sized with a coke
    Cheeseburger
    Chicken tenders with bbq sauce
    Hershey and or Reese pie

    Next: Taco Bell
    Nacho Bell Grande
    10 tacos

    Finally: Wendy's
    Jr Cheeseburger Deluxe
    5 piece nugget with bbq sauce
    Large Dr. Pepper and sometimes a Frosty

    Yes, that is totally disguisting and yes, I could do it in just under 2 hours and make it home for dinner and my mom never knew! O, and I was a vegetarian, but during a binge, anything was fair game. People could see me pack away such deadly amounts of foods and were impressed because I barely weighed 100 pounds.

    Lately, the worst I've done was polish off 4 bags of Lays potato chips with ketchup during the WEEK of my period. (Not in one sitting, over the course of 6 days, not that that makes it any better..... Binging isn't the same when I can't throw up afterwards. Twisted, yes. Thats the way we think though......
