Just about everything at Starbucks. That White Chocolate Mocha will set you back. And movie theater popcorn.0

This post makes me incredibly sad. I'm sorry, but saying something has "too many calories" to a child can be incredibly damaging. No foods are inherently bad.

Outback steakhouse "loaded cheesy fries , I now share them with 4 or more people once a year.0

I am more shocked about the 9 year old in this story than any foodstuff.0

Sit down restaurant salads. Seems like the healthier, better choice than a burger or something with carb-heavy sides, right? A lot of them are 800+ calories. I was floored to find out my favorite salad at Chili's was 1300-ish calories.0

I agree with this as well. I never discussed calories or dieting in front of my son while he was growing up, he did however see me exercise and make the right choices. Unfortunately kids will hear it anyway as most people don't think about it....and social media...don't get me started.0 -
Peanut butter and almonds.
And I love ranch. With a passion. But we're like star-crossed lovers because I also know we can't be together...:laugh:0 -
Any kind of nut, nut butter, avocados.
I still eat them, I just make sure I measure (especially the nut butters) and add them to my calorie count!0 -
Muffins, restaurant burger buns, and restaurant meals n general terrify me. Most restaurants have been fighting tooth and nail to delay or be exempt from posting calorie counts and nutritional amounts.0

The ranch stays...so does the pizza I dip in it...0 -
Bagels. Such a waste of calories!0

Trail mix for sure; I used to eat it by the giant handful, but now I can't even really have it around the house. Also fresh pineapple kind of depresses me, because it's so delicious -- and who can have only half a cup?
I still remember when I first joined MFP and looked up the foot-long meatball marinara sandwich from Subway that I had just devoured. That was shocking, but it makes perfect sense when you think about it. It's just that I was so *not* mindful about what I ate.
But I'm very happy that I hate ranch dressing and think Pizza Pizza is the worst pizza I've ever had.0 -
I don't understand the problem with ranch dressing. How many jars of it do you need to pour onto a salad? Or how low is your calorie goal that 80-160 calories breaks the bank?0

Bagels. Such a waste of calories!
Mine too! But I really love them from a bagel shop which just closed recently. I haven't had a real bagel since. They just aren't that good from the grocery store. I'm ok with bagel thins though, so I will eat those until I find another bagel shop.0 -

Agreed! I make my salad, chuck on some ranch then shake the heck our of it to cover - doesn't need more than a TBS which I can easily allow for!0
