but i like this one the most... :bigsmile:
I vote for this. PLEASE.0 -
The only thing that MFP has taken too far is that I now rate everyone I see and mentally decide if I want to bang, kiss, marry or avoid them. They mostly are not my type.0

She must have been really HANNNNNNNNNNNNGRRRRRYYY!!!
I'm lucky enough to live in England where the odds of a restaurant being in the MFP database or the eaterie having calories on their website or menu are slim to none. And that means I can enjoy my curry/pizza/chips/pies/wine/beer/gravy/cucumber sandwiches in peace. Do I stress about the calorie content? No. Do I eat out every day? No.
If I've had a good week eating-wise I log the calories as a rough guess and just get on with it. If I've been naughty I try to get in a good run or hike to cancel out a few of the calories.
Life really is too short!0 -
haha, jeez! What a crazy lady... I had a Subway sandwich yesterday and I didn't bother the guy making my sandwich about the calories... I went home and got on their website and figured it out mah dang self!0

Jesus christ... that is certainly going too far.
Thankfully the rest of us are perfectly normal and sane :laugh:
But seriously, I've had my fair share of being very hungry and frustrated at a restaurant. And I definitely know that most servers are willing to accommodate you if you ask for a lot of changes to your meal.Their job is to serve you - yes - but you don't have to make it hard for them. If you're asking a lot be NICE.
customers who piss of their waiters/waitresses are rolling the dice... that's all i'm going to say about that. :laugh:
i worked in restaurants from chains to fine dining years ago when i was in college and let's just say, i saw stuff. don't piss off anybody who is making minimum wage and is overworked by unappreciative managers. even in expensive fine dining restaurants, i saw stuff that happens behind the doors to the kitchen. i'll leave it at that.0 -
It'd be hilarious if she replied on this thread.
I thought the same thing! hahaha! I hope she does see this and thinks "oh, could that have been me?"0 -
I'm going to put a bet that, that day was her first day on MFP.
Any other takers?
Yup0 -
She's trying So hard. Give the girl a cupcake.0

What's the point in eating out if you're gonna complain about fat / calories?! She might as well have just stayed at home and had a bit of lettuce. One day isn't gonna harm any of the hard, lifelong work people put in. And if the specific restaurant isn't on the database, add it or find something similar! Sorry just had to get that off my chest, geeeees!0

some people take it too far and are too obsessed, but thats their problem, everyone handles things differently.0

Most restaurants aren't on any kind of calorie tracking site, because it's the customers who put them there, not the companies them selves.
The companies that do publish their menu and calorie information, sheesh, it's enough to make you not want to eat out...
You think you're eating a 'reasonable' meal of fries, burger and a drink, when in one sitting, you're chowing more than half your daily allowance in one go.0 -

Nah. I'd bet that she's one of the ones that touts absolute knowledge and gets the, "you're only like that because you're behind a computer screen," speeches thrown at her. Poor girl needs In Place of a Roadmap. [ducks and runs]0 -
Oh please. I wasn't THAT bad. I just have to be careful because you just know they're putting extra fat and stuff in the food.
(No, it wasn't really me. If I'm eating out, there's a pretty good chance it's not even getting logged because it's a special, don't-care-about-calories occasion.)0 -
I hate that guy. It seems like he's everywhere - in restaurants, at the gym, in the check-out line at the grocery store, sitting behind me in traffic, on the airplane, in the freaking library...just...everywhere.0 -
bump in hopes the original lady the thread was about sees this :devil:
i'd like to just say, get a life0 -
