Confessions

Today I went to the Olive Garden and ate an entree of cheesy mushroom ravioli, 2 bread sticks, 3 bowls of salad with dressing, and 5 pieces of bruschetta, washed down with 2 glasses of sweet tea! ugh!

One entire sleeve of Girl Scout Shortbread cookies - 20 cookies, 600 calories - over about 30 minutes at 2 am. Every other cookie, I sucked on and let dissolve in my mouth instead of chewing. I'm pretty sure that reduces the calorie content.

Logged it. Didn't regret it.

As a former Girl Scout Leader, this made me chuckle!

I havent really been bad...but i did eat 1 dino nugget and 10 mini marshmallows today...lol...it was calling my name hahahaha

Also I get lazy after work and just want to come home and eat (aka NOT COOKING). I am a single mom and my parents get my daughter off the bus and feed her before I get home. So, I am responsible for myself and there are some days when I just don't want to go home and prepare something. On those days (which seem to happen more often than not), I visit the local Mickey D's. I hate McDonald's food but it's just so easy. I do, however, LOVE their Sweet Tea! On the plus side, I really can't stand their fries. So I don't eat those

I AM KIM KARDASHIAN'S BABY DADDY!

You win... or lose... whichever is more fitting hahaha

My mind left my body. I wanted peanut butter and something for a vehicle and there's no chocolate in the house. So I got out a chunk of colby cheese and commenced to get out a paddle of peanut butter and dip the cheese into it.

Tasted just like an easter bunny in chocolate.

I won't poop for a week. At least I logged it in. Damn food.

In the last 48 hours:
One slice of carrot cake
1/2 cup of Graeters Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
4ish Chip Ahoy Cookies
1 crappy cupcake from walmart
1/3 of a skillet cookie dessert from Chilis


And we won't even talk about the day I had 2 pieces of carrot cake after lunch... my sweet tooth has been nuts and maintenance has made me way too relaxed.

yuuuummmmm subway. that place is like crack.i walk in thinking okay,ill get a 12inch turkey terriaki for now and a meatball sub for my overtime shift tonight.but invariably would somehow eat my way through them both.and to be honest, ordering a 6inch sub never even entered my mind.sux...

In the past 96 hours I may or may not have consumed (and logged) the following:

2 Sprinkles cupcakes
2 Homemade Brownies
5 Homemade Smores Crescent Rolls
1 slice 3-layer strawberry cake
1 Banana Peanut Butter Cream Whoopie Pie
3 Mocha lattes
1 pint cookies n' cream icecream
1 large box hot tamales candies
1 small bag of Sour Patch Kids

3 orders of French Fries (one with cheese)
6 McDonald's Nuggets
6 slices Homemade French toast with bananas, peanut butter, syrup, powdered sugar AND CHOCOLATE CHIPS!
6-8 slices of CiCi's Alfredo Pizza
3 Beef Sliders
3.5 buttery Texas Roadhouse Rolls dipped in cinnamon butter


AND a chocolate chip cookie from McDonalds.

I think that's it.
I may or may not have used the excuse that it was cheat day, then used the excuse that I had an upper respiratory infection/bronchitis and was sick and did not feel good and therefore could eat whatever I want.

Yes, I am a horrible disgusting person for eating that much crap in such a small window of time. Now I have openly admitted to it and may return to my healthy-eating

Anyone else have a confession??? (it makes you feel better, I promise)

My sweet tooth is jealous!
You are not a horrible, disgusting person, you are human. Sometimes the craving or cravings is/are overwhelming. The best thing is you can get back on track.

I just ate two peppermint patties with breakfast. Get the sensation.

OK OK I admit it! I ate a piece of cornbread before bed last night, and I DIDN'T LOG IT! :-((((((( *crying at the computer....

Hmm- Last night I burned over 600 calories and came hone to eat a bowl of strawberries, greek yogurt, and melted semi sweet chocolate chips. I stayed under my calorie goal, but feel guilty about the chocolate at bed time. I think I might have not logged a snack size almond joy about a week and a half ago. But I try to log everything even if it's bad.

I just finished insanity and this isn't a food related confession, but....

I will confess that I am always the "big girl" among my friends. Always! Not sure how that happens, but I feel like one of the friends I have made at work that I always joke around with and is a great cubicle buddy is inadvertently making me feel bad about myself. She tells me it is just as hard for her to gain weight as it is for me to lose weight! she can eat and eat and eat and will still stay a size 1. It's frustrating, because I just don't think the two should be compared. I am struggling to try to lose weight and tone up!

It's mot just that though. there are other moments, too... like I have my degree in finance and have been getting interviews to advance within my field and she will make comments about how I am "lucky" because she won't get interviews, not that I actually have qualifications. (I have a degree and five years experience.... and she has about four years experience).

I don't think she means it, but sometimes it makes me feel bad about myself.

Oh man.... forgive me food gawds for i have sinned...

lol


While not a confession regarding something I specifically indulged in (and feel 'guilty' about ), I nonetheless do hereby confess to the following food-related realities which, were they to be admitted to any random stranger -- versus the understanding folks here on MFP -- I might be deemed in need of 'some help'...

1) any time I see those adorable twisty-wrappered pieces of 'torturous beckoning' otherwise known as Tootsie Rolls (and specifically, the 'mini' version thereof), the interior dialogue that spontaneously commences, in which the proverbial 'devil on one shoulder' ("oh, they're so tiny, they must be harmless... take as many as you'd like..."), and 'angel' on the other ("you know what the ingredient list is... how appetizing does that sound?"), begin their twisted 'debate', and keeps me temporarily distracted, until I summon the will to 'move on'... and then quickly feel a sense of Wonder Woman -like 'power' and a desire to 'high five myself', as I walk out of whatever place of business it happens to be... and I continue on my way, with head held high, and some 'badass' in my step, wishing that "Eye of the Tiger" were accompanying my 'victory', while I make my way to the car, feeling as though I just 'slayed a dragon', ...

2) now change the 'locale' to: driving past a McDonald's, and McDonald's french fries being the 'dragon' -- that's akin to the 'Tootsie Roll kryptonite' issue multiplied by an incalculable number... a non-numeric 'quantification' that ends up being somewhere in the vicinity of 'Tootsie Roll dilemma on crack'... and instead of an angel and a devil having a 'debate', my mind seems to turn to a 'silent radio' broadcast of sorts, with various 'nutrient' profile facts being thrust to the forefront, and doing its best to 'battle' the seemingly 'hallucinated' fry 'taste' that my tastebuds begin torturing themselves with... continuing past the relevant McDonald's then feels like having just slamdunked a basketball so hard that the backboard breaks (well, that is, if I knew what it actually felt like to do such a thing )...

3) any time I allow myself a 'we interrupt this carefully managed game plan to bring you this message... you're about to eat some Little Caesar's pizza... and get your pepperoni fix taken care of...' moment, I buy one of their Pepperoni and Cheese pizzas (the cheapest version only selectable in size = Large), sit in my car, and after I carefully extract one lone piece (albeit whatever qualifies as 'the largest' ), and then eat it as slowly as I can, while relishing every freakin' molecule of it that makes contact with a tastebud, I then... immediately drive to a friend's house, to drop off the remainder of the pizza (so that I don't eat it), and while they celebrate their 'lotto'-like food 'win' , I immediately exit the premises, feeling 'torn' about my 'custody arrangement' (lol), and as I make my way down the steps of their porch, I feel as though I should then be stepping behind a podium of some kind, to address a small crowd, and then taking a few questions from reporters (lol), regarding my 'monumental' accomplishment...


I'm so glad that 'thought bubbles', ala cartoons and comics, don't actually exist -- the embarrassment that would result from anyone 'seeing' what goes through one's mind when 'resisting temptation' is something I'd rather not think about... lol
