    I am a DONUT HOAR!!!

    So I can't look at this page too long...

    Want me to do something for you? Bring me a DONUT!

    Imma a dirty, dirty, dirty donut trollup..lol

    But I have given them up...and I miss them..

    ME, TOO. I should NOT have opened anything with the word "donut" in the title! Thank God my hubby wants to support me more than he wants to exploit this weakness. ;) I've been craving donuts for weeks! A while ago, I had several over a weekend that did nothing to curb the cravings. It's odd because donuts used to make me sick if I had more than one or two, but not anymore. :sad: We only have one little small town bakery and I don't go to town so I now dream of making donuts daily. Luckily, I can't cook so it would be a disaster!. :laugh:

    Goodness OP, I have he same issue! But my addiction is the auntie Anne's almond pretzel dipped in caramel sauce. I fell in love with that when i was 10, but the stall near my place place closed down in a few years, so I only ate it sporadically....till I moved to a new country and GUESS WHAT I FOUND A MERE 15 MIN WALK FROM MY PLACE?!!

    I crave this everyday. And it's filled with tons of childhood pleasures, years of eating. I'm thinking whether I shld just suck up the 530 calories or eat 6 (4,800 calories!!) now and never eat it again till the end of the year :(

    Or it might just be my period is coming

    Ok I ordered 5 and I could barely finish 3. So sick of it now. But I'm craving meat now. Gonna eat a small beef bowl and then buy some liver for tomorrow! May the cravings go away now.

    If you are dreaming about it, then you have a problem.
    And really, how people would rather have 500 calories from one single sugar/bad fats loaded donut instead of from a juicy perfectly grilled steak it's beyond me.

    Donut any day. As long as it's a good one.

    I also love their creme brulee cream filled mini donut.

    They constantly rotate flavors:
    "• Doughseeds — our mini, round filled doughnuts. Launched with our signature Creme Brûlée, flavors now include Rose (with a rose water pudding and dipped in a rose water glaze, topped with an edible rose petal), Hazelnut Chocolate, Matcha Green Tea, Peanut Butter & Blackberry Jam, Pistachio, Strawberry & Cream and Wild Blueberry & Cream."

    And there are so much more to try - Tres Leches (filled with condensed milk)...
    Help me.

    Don't eat till your sick, but come on, we need a little enjoyment. My motto is I run so I can eat! I am going to have a treat. Getting real though, every day? Might be a little extreme. Cut back to every other day and keep up the workouts.

    You sound like you can probably afford the donut, OP. Be kind to yourself.

    OP, you clearly have a problem. You just replaced one donut with another one and you're still going to the same store. :laugh:

    Going to NYC someday is on my bucket list now for sure. I would have a different one everyday if I lived there. Enjoy!

    You love the doughnut, you're willing to work out to make up for the extra calories, you're not gaining weight. Run the problem by me again?

    This. Maybe eat one every other day (maybe Tues Thurs or MWF) so it doesn't take up so many of your calories, but if it's your favorite treat and you don't mind spending calories on it, enjoy it.

    The only reason one might be a little concerned is if they contain man made trans fats since those are kind of horrible for you.

    Just looked at the site. I'm sooooo glad I don't live in NYC or I would be way fat from that doughnut shop.

    om nom nom.

    just have one a week. it's frequent enough that you are enjoying it often, but infrequent enough that it's still a treat :)

    done and done.

    That reminds me of this little bakery in the middle of nowhere (Tipton, IA). They have these pastries that are made with a cinnamon role base, topped with a layer of coconut flacored cream cheese, and then sprinkled in toasted coconut. They are the most delicious sweey thing I have ever put in my mouth, but I think one exceeds my daily alotment of calories.

    I have not tried the cashew and orange blossom cream filled one yet.

    I am a very inquisitive person and I just have to know what that tastes like.
    Shop near me has a very limited selection, I have to go to Chelsea for that one.

    Peanut butter and jelly donut?! Holy yummmm!

    After a while they might not seem like a huge deal anymore, and you won't want them as often. I tried the gorging thing hoping it would turn me off chocolate. All it did was make me poop a lot. I started eating Pop Tarts again once I realized it was ok to eat them. I had stopped because I always ate both, and sometimes 4. Now I log one and bag the other for later. I was eating them every day, and now, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'm actually getting Pop Tarted out. Can't say the same for ice cream, but I'm ok with that. :bigsmile:

    Oh no! I'm in Des Moines. I'll pretend I have no idea about this bakery. Good thing it's far enough away that I can't go everyday.
