    But do you wear your heart rate monitor?

    No, just found online that "The average man burns 4.2 calories a minute having sex, while women burn 3.1 calories. " and calculated based on that.

    I resent thin people. I've been fat my whole life, and have no idea what it's like to be thin. I know I shouldn't resent them, but damn, when I see a thin girl complaining about how those jeans make her *kitten* look big, I want to slap her in the face.

    Same! At the end of the day, I'm mad. When thin people talk about needing to lose 5lbs like it's the world's biggest deal I just want to shake them!
    Also, I know people think that 'All about that Bass' is thin shaming.....but in reality, I just don't care. Every other song is about pretty thin girls, let me have one.

    So I guess my real confession is that I'm bitter. Should probably work on that :\

    Oh. My.

    How comparable is *kitten* (<- this is starred, seriously? Okay, we'll go with wanking) to sex, calorie burn wise?

    Reading all the poop posts makes me jealous.
    I've never eaten so many vegetables or ingested so much water, yet I haven't taken a poop in 5 days. :\
    I'm secretly hoping for a 5 pound loss when it finally happens.

    As soon as I'm alone in the house, I eat anything and everything. I've been doing that for 3 years, it's amazing I'm not overweight

    [NOT JUDGING]
    Technically these are signs of ED's (eating in secret, binge eating)- just be careful, kay?

    YOU WOULD THINK, right??? I've totally gotten super excited about a poop, only to discover my loss was minimal.

    Sorry, I get super worked up when talking about poop. I just really, really miss being regular.

    I don't have carbs with my dinner so I have room for chocolate. Sweets/chocolate make up almost a quarter of my daily calories. I really need to get it under control.

    Once every week or two I buy a dozen chocolate donuts, get to the office early & leave them in the break room anonymously, and get grim satisfaction out of watching the same people who say to me "I need to eat like you" chow down.

    You have your own reasons and I'm not implying anything about you, please understand.

    That said, overfeeding other people with treats is a *classic* ED symptom. I've done it; I've watched other people do it. It feeds your food obsession on one hand, and on the other, if other people get fatter you look thinner by comparison.

    Not wanting to fall into that trap again is a big reason I don't bake anymore. :(

    For reals?

    Yes, for real.

    If you want to get all evo bio about it, the physiological/genetic underpinning of the modern mental illness anorexia nervosa is an adaptation for surviving famine--things like amenorrhea and a very single-minded focus on food, triggered when body fat drops below a specific percentage or drops a significant amount in a short period of time (for example in the *modern* world, when someone with the genetic susceptibility embarks on a successful diet). Of course, in anorexia, it's about NOT EATING, but you surround yourself with food in every other way possible. Massive recipe collections. Huge shopping sprees of stuff you won't eat. Cooking elaborate meals for your family. Baking baking baking. Instagrams full of nothing but the same six chopped up vegetables.

    To be clear, I'm NOT implying the OP here has a problem; there is simply no data to support or deny it. It's just all the people in the thread going, "Teehee how deliciously evil"--for them, I wanted to point out the dark underside of the behavior in some people.

    No. It's just funny. Sorry you don't get it.

    I keep sugar free popsicles in the freezer for such times--15 calories a pop and 1 or 2 works for me.

    Haven't seen this one yet. I love salt. I will pour soy sauce or A-1 into the palm of my hand and lick it off just to get a salt kick. And I've had borderline to high blood pressure for 10 years so I REALLY should stop that. As a kid I used to cut a lemon in half, put a ton of salt on it, squeeze the juice in my mouth and then dig out the pulp and such with my front teeth. My teeth were seriously damaged by this, they looked broken but had really worn away from the acid. The dentist accused me of being bulimic. I had to get crowns but my parents couldn't afford them so I didn't get them until I was 22 and had my own insurance and money.

    I TOTALLY used to do the soy sauce/A1 in the hand. Hell, I used to just pour Lawry's Seasoned Salt in the cap and stick my finger in there. I stopped that years ago, but I now I sort of want to do it again :)

    I love love love love A-1 sauce. I dont know what it is about it. I can eat a really high quality steak but I HAVE to have A-1 sauce.

    I am secretly afraid that my endocrinologist will stalk my food diary (they know that I use MFP) if I made my diary public. I don't know if they would celebrate that I am using IIFYM and eating "junk" (one of my appointment notes from one of my earlier appointments told me to eat cookies :D ) or freak out that I am not following a "diabetic diet."

    First confession: My wife bought a tub of pre-made cookie dough so she could quickly make some cookies for guests (and to make the house smell wonderful). After making a dozen, the tub has sat in the fridge for a week now...and I grab a spoon most nights and go down for a couple (oh hell, this is a confession thread, right?) six or seven spoonfuls of the doughy yumminess.

    At first, I reasoned, "She won't be able to tell that there is any missing," but after a solid week of this, there's no disguising the fact that the tub is more than half empty. I'm waiting for the night she goes to make another batch, and realizes that so much is missing.

    Second confession: I have considered buying another tub of the exact same cookie dough, scooping out enough to match the amount left in the original container, and then hiding that one in our garage refrigerator to continue to after-dinner snacking.

    That kind of cookie dough can be frozen. Would that slow you down?

    Ha! Only an amateur couldn't hack through frozen dough.

    I love reading these posts... what a great thread, and now I don't feel so freakish, I relate to so many of them I couldn't choose one to respond to directly.

    I am so ashamed of the amount of coffee and coffee creamer I consume, that I actually limit myself (to only 6-8 cups per day lol..) on it out of shame of having to post it because I refuse to lie to myself about it. Guess it doesn't matter the motivation for limiting it, but that's mine.

    I can't simply throw out cookies, candy or ice cream, I must destroy them and bury them in the garbage out of fear that I will go fish them out.

    I've just logged 533 calories over the 1284 I have daily, nearly half as much again! . It went on loads of bits, and I'm properly annoyed at myself.

    This thread makes me feel so much better.
    Once my family was away for a couple of days and I ate like probably 1 and a half gallons of ice cream (out of three different containers to make it look like I had maybe eaten slightly less?) considered just finishing them and buying more.
    Thank goodness I'm vegan now ._.

    All my profile pics are from before I gained weight..... too ashamed to upload a current picture and I tend to avoid cameras anyway + I kind of find it motivating to see my 'old self' and know that I will get back there one day.

    confession- my mother in law flew out to help us deal with a super stressful situation. In passing she told me I am right on the borderline of anorexic looking (not there yet, but dont sneeze!) and I took this as justification to eat a buncha muncha food today. Its been a stressful month, a particularily hectic week, and damnit if I look thin to the point of anorexia then I am eating all the damn food today.

    also- in my weight loss support group I attend, (as a maintainer) I made the whole room laugh with tales of my binge eating escapades. (this happened earlier tonight)

    - "but you are so thin!"

    yeah well I said "dont think because Im sitting here in a size zero I havent doubled down on chocolate cake like my life hasnt depended on it before"

    Yup, probably should...because someone looks thin doesn't mean they feel thin. They may have lost 100 lbs. and not even realize they are thin. So they feel fat they can't fit into the jeans.... so we hate on them? I don't get it... and yes I have a ways to go before anyone would call me slim so... for what that's worth. lol

    I have zero self control with sweets in my house so I just don't buy them. Sometimes, however, I REALLY need some sugar so then I just eat it straight out of the bag with a spoon.

    I make my own hot cocoa at home with milk, powdered bakers chocolate and then add vanilla and small amounts of sugar. Tastes better than the store bought and you control sugar content

    Sometimes I eat an entire tub of Sweet Chilli Philly with rice crackers..... Once I start I can't stop. I have classified this as 'dinner' more than once.
