Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))

As tomorrow is Fat Tuesday, here's a thematic confession. I live in the Chicago area, and it's very traditional to celebrate with paczki, a Polish treat similar to a donut. Something like 500 calories of delicious fried dough, maybe filled with sweet cheese, or custard, or jam, or chocolate... then covered in sugar. Mmmm. In the past, I've been known to eat 4-5 of these bad boys on Fat Tuesday.
I'm considering only eating paczki tomorrow, so I can stay under my calories. For, you know, tradition.
I'm planning to experiment and try to make my own tomorrow. I don't live there anymore, so my only option is the crappy mass produced ones they sell at the grocery store here, anyway. Definitely not worth the splurge. If I still lived near a real Polish bakery, I might take the hit, even if it means 3 days sick.0 -

Mmm. What filling are you using? Cheese is my favorite, followed by apricot. Still not into prune.
I always pick up a dozen or two from the local bakery and distribute them to friends throughout the day. If I'm going down, everyone is going with me!

Drank a lot of beer this weekend and lost count, so I only logged 6.0

Yesterday, I avoided eating a few servings of fruit so I could eat ice cream instead.0

I hate my frenemy for putting up pictures of me on her wall of when I was thin (18 years ago) and after I gained weight. They aren't special occasion pictures or anything. Just me, alone, looking thin and then looking fat. She is losing weight, so those pictures are a stupidly obvious form of reverse-inspiration. B****.
OMG that felt good!!

I hate when people judge you for one loop hole you allow yourself. I allow myself either one diet coke or one coke zero a day, sometimes I don't drink it at all, sometimes I drink a little more. I don't judge or hate myself for It. It's what keeps me going and keeps away the nasty headaches. Eventually I want to ditch it all together.
My friend. The one I'm doing this with is constantly picking on me for it. When she ate an entire pint of Ben and jerrys in front of me and I didn't say anything! Accountability is great but for us it only seems one sided. I know when she's having a bad day and to let it go and when to say something. She just says it all the time and it crawls under my skin because I feel like she thinks she's better than me. She even makes the comments that she doesn't know how I survive in my house when my mom always buys delicious foods and I totally resist them! Give me a break woman!! Rant over.

I'm a straight dude, but Dean Winchester makes me think about it sometimes.

Going to try something with cream cheese frosting. I have to keep it all lc, because I see no point in getting sick if I'm going to the trouble of making it myself.0 -

I had a friend like that. She would always wait until we were around other people to (loudly) point out my shortcomings. We aren't friends anymore. Life is much more pleasant.0 -

I hate Local IT people who screw their clients and then expect me to pick up their slack because they lack the knowledge (Or discipline) and experience how to set up and main a Network. Yes I wish their eyeballs would implode and their brains ooze as I stand before them like a scanner god form the 80s.

I was doing this too, finally started making myself own up to the extra calories. Has actually made me drink less...except for those days when I EAT less so that I can have a couple extra drinks

I find the "rate the person above you" or "date, marry, etc..." type of threads incredibly stupid and their participants to be attention-starved idiots.
Whew, good to get that off my chest.2 -

What were you doing and for how long? I feel like I'd have to be running for my life with a small vehicle on my back to burn that much!azulvioleta6 wrote: »melimomTARDIS wrote: »Susieq_1994 wrote: »melimomTARDIS wrote: »confession- when all my MFP friends have posted a workout, It makes me want to work out. even if my original plans were to be a slug lady all day.
When my MFP friends post strenuous workouts like 30DS or Insanity, I get all jealous, because I'm medically unable to do those kinds of workouts.
yeah I dont do those 500 calorie burn SUPER WORKOUTS. I mean like, I will do some yoga, take a long walk, do some aerobics, etc. Im no fitness icon.
500 calories is a super workout? I burned 1380 yesterday, and something like 1800 the day before...
OMG - OMG that made me laugh so hard.....0 -

I miss those days but I think there is no going back once you are socialized to the world. But I am a work in progress...interestingly improving my looks has helped me shift the emphasis away from it. Maybe one day when I am old and am not judged for my looks any longer I can be that child again. And I will embrace it because that is the circle of life!
I'm face blind too! I'm always like is this person supposed to be attractive? The faces I find most attractive are the distinctive faces, the ones with crooked noses or big ears, distinctive hair or something, because those are the ones who don't look just like everyone else!0 -
