"Binge" is rather overused--so I like "food fest" for those casual food encounters gone wild. So what's your most recent one?

Mine...probably yesterday with the cinnamon sugar crackers..I may have eaten 5 packages...in a row.

    I had one on Sunday. I accounted for it greatly in my diet as I only ate breakfast before that point. I had about 5 rolls of sushi at an all you can eat happy hour. SO GOOD!

    My previous ones before that included chocolate. Lots and lots of chocolate.

    Am I the only one who can plow through a box of Girl Scout cookies? I'll go through a box of Samoas or Thin Mints, then go back and get another box. It's okay though, I have an apple in between, so they cancel eachother out. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :glasses:

    Umm...well...when did they sell them last? I mean c'mon, it's a once a year occurrence. You always have to have a box, plus keep 1 or 2 in the freezer.

    I have a problem...:frown:

    Yesterday....started with lunch where I had chicken/spinach/white wine sauce lasagna from a food truck (came with side salad). But the chocolate raspberry filled cannoli was only $1 so yes please!

    Then HH after a meeting - 2 glasses of wine, some quesadilla, fried calamari, hummus & pita chips, bruschetta. Then on to meet some friends for some beers and 60 cent buffalo wings - I had 8 - but the celery too so it's like I barely had anything :)

    Oh wow....lemme see. Last Friday... Tacos, churros, tater tots, all with lots of salsa and sour cream... beer at the comedy club...all you can eat homestyle country breakfast the next morning (yup.. eggs, bacon, sausage, ham, pancakes, biscuits and gravy, grits...oh yeah..) then it was fully loaded hoagie from "Which Wich" that night.

    Man... that was prob a month's worth of calories is less than two days.... the guilt and the fat on my *kitten* will last much longer than the selfish weekend-long food fest....

    Thanksgiving. Haven't really had an opportunity to go crazy since then. But we're having a pizza party tomorrow at work. That's going to trash a good load of calories!

    CiCi's Pizza. But I did a lot better than usual. Usually, I get at least four plates and leave feeling like I'm about to die. This time, I kept it to two plates and made sure that I was eating light the rest of the day. Felt so good about myself for scaling it back, even if it was still a little too much.

    I'm not counting yesterday (because it definitely wasn't fun) when I may or may not have eaten half a sleeve of saltines because I'm a broke college kid and that's what there was to eat in the house.

    I've never had them before, but whenever I see 'Jaffa cakes' I can't help but think, "JAFFA! KREE!"

    Anyhoo, my last food fest was Wings 'n' More on Two for Tuesday. I ate ALL the wings. Lemon pepper. Mmmmmm.

    I was bored, football was on, and my bartender was half naked. My food fest was the 12 pints of Guinness I put down last weekend.

    My father fell a few weeks ago, and after I left the hospital to go home all I wanted some comfort food that didn't require any cooking/preparation. Wandered the aisles at Whole Foods to see what appealed to me - managed to avoid the high sugar stuff, but got a fresh loaf of bread and ate the entire thing straight through (with butter (well, ICBINB), of course.) Happily I actually felt pretty crummy when I was done, so maybe the next time I "need" some comfort food I'll think twice!

    this was me today at a CiCi's-like chain. I stuffed myself.

    Today I guess, in the sense I am over my calories by about 2000... in fact I was over yesterday too
    Does having a virus automatically make everyone become ravenous for sugar and carbs? (fighting a chest and throat infection).
    Today I had dark chocolate chips and a small marzipan chocolate bar before bed, then after I dragged myself through a workout, I had a chocolate coated banana from the christmas market (and it was amazing), then I had a caramel and chocolate muffin from Starbucks, then 1/3 hot chocolate cupcake and 1/2 mince tart from Costa, Then a bit later, another muffin and 2 white chocolate chip cookies, and a 125g box of chocolates. ARGH. Really, really bad. Must get control back. Dinner was my usual healthy fare of poached salmon, cottage cheese, steamed veggies and a couple of ratatouille stuffed mushrooms.

    Better hope that hour of hiit will somehow rev my metabolism up enough to cover some of the excess.
    or that my body is burning extra to fight illness.

    I was at a party. Parties are my ENEMY, seriously!

    I ate like three pizza crusts (I don't eat pizza so I ate other people's crusts) and chips and two slutty brownies, which are these disgusting things: http://www.thelondoner.me/2011/06/slutty-brownies.html
    I don't even know why I ate them, I usually don't eat things like that if they touch each other. I kind of felt like I had to because I helped my friend make them.

    It was awful, I felt disgusting and I couldn't sleep all night D:

    I've never been a binge eater, but I definitely have days that I don't eat much of anything healthy at all.

    Take today for example:

    For breakfast, I had a chocolate pastry and coffee from Panera.

    For lunch, I had a HUGE grilled cheese sandwich from a local food truck. It had 3 ounces of fresh mozzarella, pesto, tomatoes and sriracha.

    For an afternoon snack, my neighbor who runs a bakery brought me one of her special edition cream puffs to try. (YUM!)

    Now I just need to see what kind of shenanigans I can get into this evening. :laugh:

    I'm not worried about it. I've regularly had days like this while I was losing, and continue to have them now that I'm on maintenance. It fits in my calorie goal. Sure, my macros are off today, but I enjoyed every single bite. I eat healthier most of the time.

    It's all greasy! :P
    Grease makes me sick.
    I don't mind those pizzas where the dough is carefully hand baked over a wood fire, then sprinkled with a teensy bit of mozerella and some spinach and sundried tomatos.
    I remember when I was younger and an even fussier eater, I was at my friend's house for a sleepover, and her mum was making home made pizza for dinner- she asked what I wanted on mine, and I said I wanted lemon juice and ham.
    AND THAT'S WHAT I GOT DAMMIT
