For me lately, it's been the same for a few times the past couple weeks. A whopper, large fry and a diet coke. Totals out to be about 1100 calories of delicious badness. Since I get my 10,000 steps in and my cals budget is at least 2000 a day, this is easily doable for me.

Other days it might be something small like a Marie calendars coconut pie. The little 300 calorie ones. What's your dirty little secret?

    Alcohol is probably mine, although not technically food, I have to plan my day accordingly. This as well as whatever drunken food I end up buying on the way home! Thankfully it's not that frequent now I've left university :P

    Chips and Ice cream bars. An occasional burger here and there with a diet soda. But it always fits my macros.

    Trader Joe's white cheddar popcorn, and a square (or two or three depending on calories left) of their 72% dark chocolate. I like to "munch" at night, so save some of my calories to include these. Since I don't feel "deprived" it stops me from from going wild on worse things.

  • Whonu chewy chocolate chip cookies! They are full of calcium, fiber, and vitamin c. It's like a healthy cookie and they taste like a normal cookie like chips ahoy.

    Ice cream, but I don't know that I would really consider that junk.... I wouldn't really consider chocolate junk either. Some people would consider Wendy's chili junk, but the protein, fat and carbs fit my macros perfectly so I'm not really sure.

    Bread. Not really junk-junk but usually unneeded calories. Life without bread would be a miserable existence.

    Did someone refer to chocolate and alcohol as junk?
    For shame.

    popcorn!

    Totally! Me too. Popcorn, popped on the stove with oil and real melted butter drizzled on afterwards. I have cut down the amount I make, the oil I use, and also now put half butter and half parmesan cheese. But I love my popcorn...and no air popped crap.

    Ice cream, chocolate, pie.
  • For me, it's 6 grain potato chips ... Sweet chili flavor and they are baked not fried so it makes me feel better.
