    I miss being able to eat a whole piece of cake and not knowing, (or caring,) how many calories and sugar I have just consumed.

    Yes it does. I hate having to be conscious of it ALL the time. I would REALLY love not to have to think about it ALL the time.

    You feel better but still, bad food tastes so nice! It's worth eating right though!

    I get tired of having to think about it all the time, too. And sometimes I get tired of controlling my portions, and I don't want to eat a little of something, I want a lot of something.

    Ignorance was definitely bliss before I started counting calories :grumble:

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that feels this way! Here lately I've been really wanting to give in to the tasty, bad-for-me food...

    TOTALLY!!!!!! I remember the days of being able to stop at fast food places and ordering something for lunch and moving on with my day. Now I have to drive around figuring out what is around that actually has something I can eat. So I end up spending my whole lunch period driving around aimlessly. and before someone says it yes I know preparing a meal is the best way to go but I don't ALWAYS have time for that either! (deep breath) ok now I feel better. ;-)

    Ain't that the truth! I miss milkshakes more than anything. :( Other "bad" foods I've managed to continue eating, only in smaller portions. But knowing how many calories are in a shake has killed my desire to ever have another.

    I started experimenting with smoothies, and as I tried new things, they gradually got healthier and healthier. I can't do even a couple of sips of fast food milkshakes now. Not sure whether that's a victory or not...
