    Father's Day. Made my DH dinner. Saved the calories all week and splurged big time.

    Prime steak with roasted new potatoes stuffed with smoked salmon and mascarpone cheese. Side of micro green salad with roasted pear and goat cheese. Finished it all off with a dark chocolate and bacon cake with maple frosting. Somewhere in the neighborhood of 2000 calories for just that meal.

    Pasta Carbonara the week before came in a close second.

    I think I love you.

    I'm not dieting because that's just temporary. This is a lifestyle change.

    This!

    I had a huge craving last week and ate a chicken sandwich, cole slaw, and fries, and gained a few pounds back, ugh!

    Gained a few pounds from one meal? What the Morgan Freeman was on that chicken sandwich?

    I don't diet, so I haven't eaten anything that I consider 'bad'. I have gone over my calories on a couple of occasions, so I guess that could be considered bad.

    Worst thing?

    Asparagus.

    I can't believe anyone convinced me to try that.

    The best thing was a Cookies & Cream Pop-Tart and Friendly's Oreo Cookie ice cream sandwich. Or maybe the Belgian waffle loaded with butter and syrup I had for dinner last night at IHOP. That thing was divine.

    I wouldn't call being more careful of what I eat a "diet", but my boyfriend and I wanted to try a new spot to eat. We went to a Cajun place in a quaint little historical area near where we live. We started our meal with an entire log of Brie baked in Phyllo paper and covered in candied walnuts and a syrupy deliciousness. Then I had jambalaya. It was delicious! I'd do it again too!

    Jambalaya..... Mmmmmm!

    Grilled skinless chicken breast is tasteless and claggy - definitely one of the worst things I've eaten.

    You're doing it wrong.

    I think it's a question of personal taste - it's a big hit with the other people in my house. Me, I let them have mine. It's not often I refuse food, believe me!

    Just out of interest, how do you do yours?

    I always eat terrible things.

    But I've been on an ice cream kick recently and keep eating half gallons of cookie dough ice cream on the weekends. =(

    I am not dieting, but have been craving and eating babies a lot lately. Maybe I am pregnant?

    That's definitely one of the symptoms. You need fresh baby parts to help gestate one of your own.

    All kinds of different ways, actually. Sometimes on the grill with a rub, either creole or other type of garlic, peppery concoction. More likely cut up into strips (feathers) and marinated into a hot sauce / sriracha sauce.

    On the stove top, I usually sauté some onions and brocoli into the chicken, and then sriracha the crap out of it and put it inside a wrap. So very good.

    I don't categorize food as "good" or "bad." I just get my nutrition on and my fitness on...once those obligations have been met, it's whatevs...

    Thanks. Yeah, cutting it up and including it in saucy, casserole-y things is the only way I can really see myself enjoying it.

    I've had a few blow outs usually with Chinese food. But the worse thing I've eaten was Brown rice protein powder.

    OMG, you are not kidding!!! Rice protein powder is TERRIBLE. Then I tried another vegan protein powder which was supposed to be the best...................NEVER, never again!!!!

    I'll keep it real and admit I am trying to adhere to the Merriam Webster definition of diet: "a regimen of eating and drinking sparingly so as to reduce one's weight," even though I have been pursuing a much healthier lifestyle over the last several months.

    Worst tasting: Coconut water ... I can't get into it.
    Worst nutritionally: Churro filled with dulce de leche ... so unbelievably amazingly delicious with no redeeming value as food, unless you are a famine victim and really need the calories.
