    It's not a neurosis or anything, believe me I eat enough unwholesome foods. But when I "waste" a half-a-days calories on french fries, when I could have had steamed vegetables or something healthier. . . . yeah I feel a little disgusted.

    There is no food that makes me feel disgusting, because I am not disgusting, and food does not determine my self worth. There are some foods that make me feel physically ill, and I avoid those, but what I choose to put in my mouth is not a moral compass.

    I only regret eating things that don't taste good. I never feel guilty or disgusting about eating food.

    ^^This.^^

    If I forget to pack a lunch and end up getting fast food, I feel like the food itself was disgusting, but I don't feel disgusted with myself. Maybe disappointed by my lack of preparation and disappointed that it wasn't delicious, but not as far as disgusted. I have the same feeling when I cook something healthy and it tastes like dirty feet. I'm not disgusted with myself, but disappointed that it didn't turn out better, i.e. turkey meatloaf, chili beans that are still hard, etc.

    I'd love a cookie right now.. this thread just made me hungry!

    The only time I feel bad about what I eat (and not necessarily) is when I'm disorganised and I end up with takeaway.. I always find it disappointing to taste and easy to overeat as portions are so large and the expense makes me feel guilty for wasting any.. I'm a pretty good cook and I know I could've made a similar, modestly portioned meal that tasted much better.

    I really don't think feelings like guilt or disgust should ever be associated with food. Diet isn't religion people, it's just part of life. There is definitely no need to go all dobby the house elf over a cookie. Even legitimate binges shouldn't be treated with guilt in my opinion, as it just causes an eat-repent-eat cycle.
    Anyway, you have to eat what you bake, it's quality control!

    Edit: I feeling disgustING if I eat something that makes me toot noxious gases and writhe around in agony... does that count? The funny factor outweighs that though when I look at my boyfriends face. ah such a lady.

    Really any ONE thing I don't regret. I only regret when I can't eat in moderation and go over board.
    Lately this has been when my toddler only eats half of something really good, and then its a decision of eating it or throwing it out.

    You shouldn't feel disgusted because you ate one cookie, you should feel proud that you didn't eat all of the cookies!

    Anything that makes me eat all in one. I never say I can't eat certain foods since I allow everything in moderation, but if it makes me eat more than one, it's goodbye to that!

    One reasonable serving of anything wouldn't make me feel disgusted, but if I lost my mind and ate several servings of potato chips and dip (or anything for that matter), I would be disgusted with my lack of self control, and later I'd feel bloated and gross. For this reason, potato chips and dip are two items I do not keep in the house.

    I only feel disgusted if I have soooo much that it puts me over my goal and ruins my calories for that day..

    this.

    i only feel disgusted when i've lost control and binge. when something that was supposed to be a treat spins out of control.

    when that happens i realize that i've been too restrictive with how i eat, and what i withhold from myself.

    one cookie?? now i usually have 2-3 with a glass of milk, and make sure it fits into my calories. i call it my dessert macro.

    Anything crazy high in carbs because I'm diabetic and it spikes my blood sugars so badly. I know it's doing bad things to my body and I shouldn't have eaten it in the first place so yes, it does disgust me that I did that to myself. On the other hand, IT TASTED _SO_ GOOD! I'm happiest now when I can take one bite of someone else's carby treat and they get to eat the rest.

    I just ate a freshly baked, warm, gooey and delicious chocolate chip cookie.

    And now I feel disgusting.

    What types of food (or drink) do you consume and later think ... " Why did I do that ?"

    I don't put that kind of stress on myself. I've spent the last 3 days baking and eating and it will continue for the next 2. It's 1 gd cookie, you feel that badly about it run in place durin the commercials while you watch football tonight and you'll have it burned off by the time the first game is over.

    I think it really helps that I have taken the slow approach to all this, and I eat pretty much whatever sounds good while still trying to meet my nutrition and calorie goals, more or less. There are times when I think, "I would rather have spent those calories on something else," but I wouldn't say I feel disgusted or disgusting.

    The Wendy's triple. I get through about half of it and can't go any further. Then I feel gross. But that first bite is so dang tasty.

    I love all food! When I have so many choices of junk food and variety in the house, what ends up happening is that I tend to not eat it just because it is there. But if I restrict it and attach a negative feeling then I tend to crave it more. I think it is important how you associate with food. This ends up making not only the calorie totals but all goals in life generaly easier and more enjoyable. At least this is my opinion and everyone has there own way and what works for them.

    If I eat anything that isn't on my safe foods list I feel overcome with guilt, anxiety and fear. If I eat enough to feel 'full' I feel wracked with guilt. I can't eat a lot of food in one sitting, I have to pace myself through the day, eating little as often as possible to keep my metabolism going and to keep hunger pains away.
    This weekend I ate chocolates and cookies, for the first time in a while allowing myself to let go, and boy, do I regret it. I feel awful. Bad food simply makes me feel sick, physically nauseous, as if I've eaten poison. It may taste good on the tongue but it doesn't sit right in my stomach.

    I've found that too many sweets or refined grains leave my stomach hurting for days afterwords. But they sure taste good in the moment. :sad:

    This thread makes me sad. :(

    Food is not the enemy. Food is not dangerous (in reference to "safe" foods). Food is not good or bad. The problem is internal. Love yourself. You are worthy. What you eat does not make you who you are.

    I never feel disgusted after eating anything in small amounts, a cookie? Sure, yum. A bowl of pasta with some white cheesey garlic bread? Great. But I do feel ill if I ate this kind of food every day and also if I eat too much processed sugar, I feel nauseas and dizzy, like i'm hungover.

    However, I DO NOT have a list of foods which I never eat, I used to be like that and it was an eating disorder! I dislike macdonalds burgers, so I do not eat them, I love ribs with fries abd salad so that would be a treat meal for me.
