    I love this. Being a single dad though I only had to internalise this conversation. The problem being I had ZERO brakes, so it'd start off being a little hungry and maybe get some chips, to ordering a super size Papa Johns Pizza with wings and all sorts of other sides. :)

    This cracked me up! I remember this conversation, except with a few more "I don't know, what do you want?" phrases. :laugh:

    10 weeks! Good for you! Freedom from fast food. Feels good doesn't it?

    Damn right. Sat in a Burger King today and had a diet coke. No burger, no fries, no afters, just a diet coke. And it was excellent :)

    My husband is getting used to saying "let's go to five guys, oh wait - kebby's calories" - lol. I enjoy that stuff sometimes but I have to plan for it. I take him to somewhere with a salad bar and he can go to town on the junk while I have a salad.

    When you think you have built it up just do it... It is very empowering to order a drink at a fast food place and feel disgusted with the smells and crap inside those places.

    That's funny! This is how my conversation goes with my boyfriend.

    4am (him getting off of work). What to you want to eat?
    Me: nothing
    Him: nothing?
    Me: nothing
    Him: you sure??
    Me: NOTHING!!
    Him: nothing at all??
    Me: sighhh, subject change..

    After two months of this he is still testing me constantly.
