    Or is it just me?
    I have had problems with food but I'm grateful that once I'm asleep, I'm free.

    I've had a double cheeseburger and fry from McDonalds once since I started. I'm talking about a big, juicy cheeseburger like the one pictured above. I can't do those. When I get to maintenance, I'll have cheat meals now and then, but for now, it's better for me to stay focused. Different strokes...

    Why can't they fit in your goals? :huh: :huh:

    It's kind of difficult to explain, but for me, food is like a drug. It's better for me to go cold turkey and stick by my self-imposed rules, than to flirt with going back to my old eating habits. I guess it would be akin to telling an alcoholic, you have a scotch or three once a week, but then you have to go back on the wagon.

    I know I could fit it into my daily allowance, but, for me, it's just better that I don't.

    Food is not a drug... it's just food. Burgers provide good protein/fat macros. *shrug*

    I have to disagree here. Food can most *definitely* be a drug, as a drug is a medicine *or other substance* that has a physiological effect when placed in the body.

    For some people food isn't a drug...for others...it IS a drug. Some people can have a glass of wine and be fine...others need the entire bottle, every day.

    Anything and everything can be a "drug" depending on how it affects the individual person.

    I hear you, OP...and I applaud your efforts.

    OP:have you tried joining one or more of the groups here that focus on the issues you describe in your profile and posts? Might be more helpful than all the "just eat the cheeseburger" replies.

    I do, but then I will have a burger and fries once in awhile. The rule tho is that it has to be the best I can buy. There is a brewery near me that does a fabulous burger.

    Maybe my next splurge...cause now I am thinking about it.

    I work these things into my life. Then I don't feel deprived.

    Not usually, but yesterday driving past Dairy Queen and seeing the sign with the double cheeseburger basket nearly caused me to jump the curb. I have no idea why I wanted that thing soooo bad!

    Yes, and then I wake up and eat it. Why wouldn't you?

    I know I cannot because of dietary restrictions. Puts my blood sugar through the stratosphere.

    Not quite dream it but crave a Five Guys Burger. What stops me is I never feel as rewarded after eating it as I think I will.

    I don't dream of eating that. I live off a Vegan diet so I had a dream once that my mom was trying to force me to eat meat...it was scary. Lol
