2 wonderfully yeasty glazed donuts from our local fried pies place. The last one was more of a chocolate covered cinnamon roll with crushed peanuts on top.
Ick.... sugar shock!
POF, I didn't eat all 3 at the same time. I had 1 after lunch, 1 after my workout, and the last one before bed. I thought I'd feel like a dying bloated cow, but I didn't and I slept really well last night.
Granted, the sleeping well could have had more to do with the 75 minute intense workout I did than the donuts.

I wish I could eat donuts....might have to include one in a cheat meal! I tend to like either the plain glazed, or filled ones the best.0

I'm sure. One donut puts me into sugar shock.0 -

If someone was in that area I was going to tell them, but didn't see anyone working in that area.
Call the store. And maybe the health department. That's not safe.

Like what? And if it isn't illegal, immoral or unethical, why wait?

I just called & asked for the manager of the grocery area. The person handling the phone didn't know if anyone was there & asked what I needed. Hopefully, the lady on the phone does pass on the information.
I told her that I was shopping in the area & picked up a few yogurts & noticed some were expired in March. She basically said well people go through them every night. I wanted to say I don't care if people go through them every night & whoever goes through them must not be doing their job. Or whoever is stocking the shelf is putting the newer stock in front & pushing the older ones in the back to save time.
I understand that at times customers will go through the yogurts (foods in general) & make a huge mess. I know that I will look for the yogurts, salad mixes, & sometimes almond/cashew milks that have the longest expiration dates (generally I don't make a huge mess with the display though).0 -

My guests are aghast when they see my big ol' jethro portions. (ie- huge bowls of air popped popcorn, 2 or 3 potatoes with my dinner, mountains of salad... etc)
Also, sometimes, when I am stressed, I still binge eat. Its very comforting to overeat, like wrapping up in a warm blanket.
Each binge session gets farther and farther apart, and I can usually somewhat balance the week to prevent weight gain. Its pretty infrequent now, but still happens sometimes.
I'm so guilty of this too. Never had that comfort feeling explained like a "warm blanket" but that's exactly what it is.
My guilty pleasure is to have a big lunch. I'm playing this game by using almost all my calories by end of lunch to make sure I do cardio so I can have dinner. Not the best idea but it's working.0 -
So, here it goes. I watch shows like My 600lb Life to "up the anti" while working out.
I don't know if it comes from fear of getting that big or from frustration that they allow themselves to be so helpless but something about watching that show pushes me to go that extra 15 minutes or push harder on the inclines to get through the workout. At the end of the day, we are all responsible for our eating, or actions and inactions and perhaps this show and others like it keep the pressure on.0 -
I ate 10 truffles today (like 600 cals, almost half my limit) plus girl scout cookies. Whoops.0

I have eaten yogurt more than a month past date. However, they should not be selling it!0 -

I am running a 10K this coming Sunday and I am not a runner! I just want to finish in less than 1.5 hours, wish me luck!
You got this!0 -

I've absolutely done that before with the Biggest Loser, you're not alone!0 -
Also, is it sad I'm jealous of everyone's sugary overindulgences? Save some doughnuts for me!0

I DVR shows like The Biggest Loser and My 600 Lb Life and only allow myself to watch them if I am on my elliptical. I find I get the same type of motivation you are describing.0 -

Also again drank wine last night and have a raging headache today. I am just going to reset to a year of health. Exercise daily. Eat well and vegan. Stop drinking period. I have 2 years til I am 50. I want to be amazing. I am healthier and thinner then I have been my whole life but there are opportunities for improvement. I'm going to make 48 amazing!
