    I LOVE CHILI TOO!! I'm making it tonight.

    I make my own cheeseburger using lean ground beef and a whole wheat or potato bun. Problem solved!

    Skip breakfast, buy the smallest 5 Guys burger without fries, and have a light dinner. The next day is a new day.

    When I crave a cheeseburger I...

    Remind myself of my long-term goals and repeat this phrase: "Do not confuse what you want right now with what you REALLY want."

    Or, I will plan to eat one by establishing a caloric deficit in advance so it fits my macronutrient intake goals.

    STAY FOCUSED.

    Here is how the chili is WAY better for you. I don't know why everyone wants to fight over a cup of chili. I was stating what I did and what worked for me.


    For just a craving thing - I think it is a great option and non guilty one.


    Here is the burger, just the regular burger - single burger.

    Looks like one of the new pretzel bun burgers... Good God, I can't wait to try one of those. Nearest Wendy's is like 20 miles from me though.

    Would be totally worth it.

    I love burgers so when I am craving I just make a healthier version at home!

    Nothing wrong with treating yourself once in while btw...

    I do also make burgers at home. Some of us crave greasy burgers, some of us crave candy, cakes or pie or sweets in general. My weakness is big ol' burgers.

    SO I have been fighting going to five guys and getting a big bouble bacon burger with all the veg's and mayo - Today I went to wendy's to get a small chili to go with my salad. It was very meaty and I don't want a burger anymore lol. This might help someone later - according to the app it's only about 180 cal's also - gotta watch the salt though!

    Chili =/= cheeseburgers.

    Exactly... that's the point. She got rid of her craving through eating a healthier foods.

    Go on, how is the chili healthier?

    It would absolutely be healthier. No bun, no mayo, no bacon, small portion. No, not completely healthy but definitely a better choice!!

    A better choice than bacon? Um, no.

    Sure, you are right, bacon would be less calories....if you only ate 4 or less pieces. Otherwise, you are over what a small chili would be, which is 180 calories. I am pretty sure that he wouldn't be filled up on 4 or less pieces of bacon. AND, it probably wouldn't have gotten rid of his craving!!

    I am not gonna fight over a burger on the internet - but for a small quick - get your craving satisfied I think the small chili is a way better option. If you can't understand that then I don't know what to say to you.

    We eat burgers when we want one...mostly at home using 90/10 ground beef...if going out to get a burger, well, I count that as a treat and plan accordingly. One burger didn't put you overweight nor will it keep you there. But Five Guys wouldn't be my first choice for a burger. Enjoy

    Call me crazy, but if I want a burger, I eat a burger. Now, I may eat a kid's burger, skip the fries, or eat a full sized one and eat nothing else the rest of the day, but I just eat one. I don't really figure I'll succeed in this for very long if I go around craving certain foods. In fact, I don't think I really want to do it bad enough to completely give up certain foods forever.
