I sometimes buy cakes (cupcakes, iced buns, etc.) just to eat the icing. I have a lot of trouble not snacking constantly0
-
Can I confess before I've done it? My kids are coming over with afternoon tea later for Mothers Day.0

I am very proud (and cannot share IRL) that I actually left 1/4 of my baked potato when I realised I was not hungry0

Confession: I got a 17.6 oz cup of Fage 0% greek yogurt on my lunch break because I was impressed with the amount of protein it had, but it tasted like curdled milk. I was suppressing my urge to vomit by the end of it (and only ate it because I paid for it).0

Ok this sounds like something I'd do.
When I do eat a piece of cake, I eat the cake first, eating around the icing. Especially if it's a butter cream icing or other really sugary tasting type. Only when the cake it's gone, do I eat the icing, by itself.0 -

I go one step further and just eat the icing, throwing the cake away. I only do this when alone with stuff from the reduced section of the super market. I am starting clean eating on Tuesday (when fruit/veg order comes) and hopefully today was the last time I do it. I may have made cream cheese icing once and eaten the whole batch0 -
Many men shave daily for their jobs and sometimes even have to maintain a certain length of hair because the traditionalists in charge think only women should have long hair.I am jealous that guys don't have to shave their legs. I have to shave at least twice per week and am currently doing so every other day; my hair grows fast.-1 -
last night at about 2 in the morning I decided to eat an entire bag of pistachios and a big bowl of homemade applesauce with a massive amount of brown sugar on top ............while i watched heavy metal & also wizards (the animated movies) on youtube .
oh and i confess today i will probably go over calories slightly because i feel like i need to eat some prunes later on top of what is already planned. what a lame confession0 -

You can see your face. Not quite the same as the backs of your legs in a slippery bath tub.

I confess that I love your lipstick color and would like to know what it is and where to buy it.0 -

If it weren't for the only times I eat cake is at gatherings I'd likely skip the cake too... after all the saying isn't "the icing on the cake" because the cake's the best part...
Now my mind's stick on buttercream...0 -
I admit I squeed like a little girl when I noticed that the new treadmills at the gym have Solitaire on them. Best workout ever.0

Today on my walk I spotted a half eaten bagel on the side of the road. In the past I would have assumed someone set it on the top of their car as they were getting in and then forgot it. Now thanks to this thread I'm wondering if someone tossed it out the window on purpose to avoid the calories.
Why ever would you wonder something like that? LOL 
...can't stop laughing at your post and how the thought entered your head on your walk.0 -

Careful! This is a sure fire way to burn yourself out. Or risk injury. You don't have to overwhelm yourself with changes or make it complicated. Just start by making one meal per day healthier. Then build on that. You'll find that once your body has the correct fuel in the right amount workouts are much easier and you'll feel so much better. I know you didn't ask for advice, so feel free to ignore of course.
very helpful, thanks! I don't know why I complicate it at times... it really is simple when I focus and plan.0 -
I feel like a cheat about my profile pictures (here, on FB etc.) because they are so flattering and sometimes when I look in the mirror or a glass window I look like a total different person.
It´s like I have two faces (depending on my mood or whatever) or when looking in a mirror sometimes my brain tricks me into only seeing my chocolate side automatically and only sees the most benefical things about my face in the best light...half an hour later in a window or even worse on a picture others made it´s completely different.
My question/fear: which face do others see? The good mood or the bad mood one? Am I seeing myself more attractive when I am feeling good or am I seeing myself uglier when I am in a bad mood? What the hell do I look like?
Shall I go and see a therapist? :-D
Don't know the answer to your question, because it is MY question as well! You are not alone in feeling like this. I do, too. It's so frustrating at times. I'll look in the mirror and think, hmmm, not bad. Then later in the day I think I'm just so ugly and what can I do to change my appearance? Sorry I have no answers. Just empathy. Oh, and I do wonder what others see when they see me...
So I'm not alone in this... it's a weird phenomenon isn't it.
Rather reminds me of the Seinfeld episode of the gf that looks great then suddenly he turns around and she's not so great looking.0 -

I look vastly different in photos than in real life, but in the opposite direction -- I look significantly better (I hope!!) in the flesh than I appear in photos.
And I don't think it's entirely wishful thinking on my part because I've had people look at photos of me and ask, "Who's that?" or squint at it and say in disbelief, "That's YOU?"
A lot of it is just down to lighting and angle anyway... incandescent light is more flattering than fluorescent, dim light even better, lol.
Plus onlookers are viewing you through their own filters anyway, so they're not getting a neutral perspective.
No therapist required.
I read somewhere that if you saw yourself, really saw yourself, you wouldn't recognize you. You don't actually know what you look like because you've only seen pictures or reflections. That kind of blew my mind and I wonder if it's true that I wouldn't recognize myself through different eyes.
Side note: Sometimes I think I look pretty decent in the mirror then I go to take a picture and I look like a double-chinned troll. I hate mirrors and cameras. They're pathological liars.
interesting!0 -

Will you eat 800 coffee truffles or would you want something different? I for sure have spent a lot of money on sweets, but don't think I would be able to eat that volume of one kind...
My adoration of coffee runs deep. I'd eat it. All.
Wait..what about that friend? 0 -

I feel like I need to leave the house just to get some reading done, but I have no idea where I'd go. Barnes & Noble took out their couch.
The libraries have great furniture...check them out in your area and see if you can find a cozy chair to sit and read. Why did they remove the couch? 0 -

Barnes & Noble probably took out their couch because people will come in and read but not buy anything. Strangely enough, it never occured to me to read at the library. I'll give it a try. Been itching to read the Dexter books for starters. Thanks for the suggestions. 0
