    I won't leave the house if it is 30-35 degrees or lower unless I am running out of TP.

    I sit on the computer using diet and exercise research as my excuse.

    I stay in bed on some days off ALL day watching tv, sleeping, reading only to get up for my meals and to peee, IFF I get on the elliptical I get back in bed for more movies...rest on Sundays to an extreme.

    I have some chocolate nearly everyday ... nutrisystem desserts ... and love it.

    I buy clothes I want to wear when on sale and hord them for years thinking they will fit when I loose weight again.

    I buy more fresh fruits and vegetables than I can eat and end up throwing away lots of food (money) on things I don't use.

    I don't feel guilty about these acts as I have justified them as failed attempts to do good or feel good.

    Strong post is strong. Good job on airing that all.

    I ate nearly an entire 8x8 pan of butterscotch blondies... By myself... In one day. And by "nearly", I mean that I saved two small pieces for my husband, and gave them to him for breakfast. (I baked them after 1 AM. Everyone knows that's the best time to give in to crazy cravings... Right?)

    I've had a super low calorie day (non-intentional) and did a lot of exercising. Even after dinner, I have enough calories left to eat an entire pizza. I don't want a pizza, but I'm totally heading to the shop for an ice cream as soon as the episode I'm watching is done.

    Did this a couple days ago. Did a good deal or cardio in the morning but pretty much no appetite all day (not normal for me lol). Had about 900 calories left for the day, so I stopped at McDonald's and got a double quarter pounder with cheese. Still under my goal :stuck_out_tongue:

    I don't buy jeans when I need them, as more motivation to lose weight and fit in the ones I already have. This never works and usually leaves me with 1 or 2 pairs of pants.

    I don't buy snacks at all, cause I eat them all by the end of the night. I tore up a 12 pack bag of string cheese in one sitting.

    I've eaten handfuls of uncooked steel cut oats. I find them delicious.

    Here's one that isn't food related. I grew a mustache and bought a fedora partly because they're not in style (especially in my demographic).

    I take it you're not an American

    I do the same, but I live in Dallas, so it's not that difficult. We rarely have extended periods that cold. The last two weeks have been unusually cold (but not every day below freezing). I didn't have to work President's Day and it was extremely cold. So I got up in the morning, took off my pajamas, only to put on another pair of pajamas (warmer since I was no longer in bed) and spent the day watching television and reading. I only went outside to take out the garbage. I did the same thing Monday 2/23 when my office was closed due to sleet and snow. And if we get the wintry mix that is forecast for tonight and tomorrow morning, I'll be doing the same tomorrow.

    Had an appointment at electrolysist this morning in the city. Her office is very close to a store I can get dark chocolate caramels. I know a box of them is 1100 cals so I skipped breakfast before the appointment and stopped at that store on the way to the appointment. My plan was to eat half the box before the appointment as my breakfast and the rest on the way home as my lunch. I was able to talk myself out of the second half of the box so that I'd have more calories left for healthier eating the remainder of the day (I generally eat @1660/day).

    Of course there is still a half box of chocolate temptation out in the car but I've put it with the spare tire so I'll have to put in some effort before I consume the second half.

    I have totally spare-tired food!

    Please believe me when I tell you that several of the mom's at my older kid's school are super stuck up and judgmental. This makes me sound like the jerk, but I'm really so laid back and these people just drive me nuts! The other day, they had a bake sale at the band and strings concert and one of those women made chocolate chip cookies. She listed all the ingredients on a paper and in caps put ORGANIC before each thing, i.e. "ORGANIC flour, ORGANIC sugar.." It was so obviously competitive nonsense ( listing the ingredients at all was not required or expected). She was the winner of best mom in the world for sure. I find this type of behavior so obnoxious.

    And that had nothing to do with anything, except that it was annoying.

    Confession: I want the tank top in your profile picture!!! Is that for real, because if so, I need to know where you got it so I can have it in my life STAT!
    So who's scrolling back and looking for the tank top? I scrolled a bit but never saw anything exciting so figured I missed it. lol

    you can just click berlynwall's name on the original quote to bring up her profile

    OK, found it but don't know what a cheese fry is so probably don't want it on my shirt. lol

    That is quite possibly the saddest things I've EVER heard. You NEED to have some cheese fries. Like, NOW!!!

    Monday was my birthday and my wonderful coworkers gave me a chocolate chip cookie cake. I ate at least two pieces of that, then went out and had a huge margarita and full plate of Mexican food. I quit logging my food after I ate my lunch.

    Monday was my birthday, too, and Mexican and margaritas happened. And cheesecake, but not a chocolate chip cookie cake :(

    It's a gateway drug to poutine:

    Confession: I spent far longer than I really want to admit looking at this picture and actually noticed an increase of saliva in my mouth while doing so.

    Umm, me too. I think I may have zoned out for a few too. French fries are honestly my favorite food and I am so happy when I get to eat them. Especially when they're covered in cheese, and bacon and dipped in ranch. I feel sad for people that have never experienced the joy that is cheese fries.

    I haven't been this sore in a looooong time and I kinda like it (especially since it came from going to the gym with a person I like). But I have no idea what is in store for tomorrow and if I will have the strength to do 2 workouts back to back.
    Like even my neck is sore.

    Also I felt really good when they saw me and one of the first things they said was about how small I had gotten. (But was I really that big? The scale hasn't moved much and my clothes still fit somewhat the same)

    Don't over think it! Take the compliment and see it as positive reinforcement to keep you motivated. It's such a gamble complimenting someone on weight loss - you just never know how they're going to react, so for whomever took the opportunity to tell you that, just try to see it as a good thing.

    Walking around in TK Maxx, I saw a box of dark chocolate raspberry truffles that were on the wrong shelf. Upon closer inspection, I saw someone had opened them already and put them back on the shelf. So....I ate one. And it was amazing. Then I went and told my fiancé and we both had 3 more. No regrets! They were delicious.

    Totally judging this. ^^^^

    There's a guy at the gym. Everyday he rides the stationery bike relatively slowly for an hour while reading the paper. Then he does these ridiculous "crunches" that don't crunch anything as he's just basically rocking back and forth. Then he does these "push ups" that look useless and really bad form.

    My confession is that I judge the hell out of him even though I'm relatively new to the whole gym thing. Is it okay to confess judging on a non-judgmental thread?

    My mother in law just got back from Hawaii, but before she left she shipped herself a box of fresh pineapples overnight and shared them with us. I just cut one up and I've eaten more than half of the whole thing. Holy delicious. If one of my kids wasn't here, I probably would have eaten all of it alone.

    I'm 57 and I play MMOs. Not sure that this should be a confession. That I play them too much might be the confession. I would rather play than exercise, but I am finding exercise is much more enjoyable on a wii-fit than without.

    Ok here goes.

    I met my husband in an MMO. We are sort of famous on our old server because I was his guild leader, we met and fell in love. This summer we will have our 13th wedding anniversary.

    We lived on two different continents and he moved to mine. When he moved here we sold our toons and got more than 10k US for them (very uber). We put the money down on our house.

    So now you know more about our meeting than my mother does!


    I met my husband on a text-based MUD (multi-user dungeon) based on the Wheel of Time series of books. I lived in western Canada, he lived on the Mid-Atlantic U.S. We've been married nearly 15 years, and have 4 kids. Until we moved to the southern U.S. 11 years ago, we had a couple groups of friends whom we met with a couple times a month to play tabletop RPG's: D&D, WoT D&D, a game called "Call of Cthulu"... well, you get the idea, lol.

    The days I don't finish logging or don't log at all are the days I drink 4+ alcoholic drinks. I need to log those days to acknowledge the caloric reality of it. And I just need to quit drinking so damn much.

    I do this too :neutral_face:
    And I too need to stop!

    I threw away a pack of biscuits. To make sure I didn't go routing through the bin later in the night when I had cravings, I crushed them up and poured washing up liquid on them :smile:

    Confession: I've stopped carrying cash and coins so that I can't hit the snack machine at work. It's the only surefire way I've found to avoid urge-snacking. On a related note, when someone leaves foodstuffs in the breakroom for the enjoyment of others, I will immediately throw that *kitten* in the traschcan so that it doesn't tempt me throughout the day. No, I don't care that you would have eaten it. Sorrynotsorry.

    Confession: I just ate 2 tablespoons of crunchy peanut butter that I brought to have with my apple out of the container with a spoon. The apple is still in my lunch bag wondering where its peanut butter friend ran off to.

    My first thought was that the machines at my husband's job take credit/debit cards, too. Sending you good vibes that yours never upgrades.

    I don't wear panties when I go to the gym. I can't. It feels way too constrictive!!

    Confession: The word "panties" makes me cringe, unless it's referring to a little girl's underwear.

    I really feel like we should be best friends. I'm 30 and also don't want kids...while I'm in a serious relationship, I've been married and I'm not sure I want to do it again.

    But what really got me was the word panties...I completely agree!! Can't stand it.
