What was your REGULAR worst meal
OK, so for fun I decided to look up one of my old fav's and count up the calories in it. No wonder I weigh so much!
Here it is...
Philly steak pizza with triple cheese (including blue cheese on top!) My hubby and I would split it! 2800 calories each!
The good news is we have lost 100 lbs between us so far this year! Still enjoy pizza on the weekends but it's thin crust and veggie loaded- and we LOVE it!
So, now it's your turn...

Pizza was my downfall too, I actually had some last week, I do one day a month where I eat what I feel like and I was craving some pizza, instead of ordering the 14" though I ordered a 9" and I was pretty fine after that.0

Jimmy John's #9 sandwich.. 942 calories each.0

MIne was a frozen pizza and a whole box of Little Debbie Swiss Cake Rolls with Milk. Ummm... 2000 cals for the cakes and about 700 for the pizza. About 200 for the milk.0

Egg McMuffin or Sausage Egg McMuffin with grape jelly
two hashbrowns and a large coke..I would have that at least 3 days a week for breakfast...I can't even think about eating something like that now. It almost makes me sick.0 -
We ate out a lot at tgi's and had a lot of takeaway meals too not good I know but not had a takeaway for what seems like forever and not missing it either!! calories for what I used to eat I wouldnt even want to start adding them up!! they would be off the scale for sure0
-

Taco Bell was a regular offender for me. It's been so long since I've had it, it took me awhile to remember what my typical meal was.
2x Beefy 5 layer burrito
1x Potato soft taco
1x Cheesy fiesta potato bowl
Total calories: 1630
Total fat: 72g
Total carbs: 196
Total sodium: 3,920
This isn't including the days where I would often have some other fast food for lunch OR I'd get hungry later in the night so I'd go to TB again. No wonder I ballooned up so fast! >:(0 -
My typical weekend breakfast was biscuits, gravy, hassbrown casserole, bacon and eggs! Pushing 1400 calories just for breakfast! Crazy! Oh how I miss my biscuits and gravy....0

I was (and am still) a sucker for the vegetarian burritos at my neighborhood taco stands in san diego... probably like 1200 calories for the burrito, and I had it for dinner pretty regularly.
I will say it's one of my favorite foods ever, so I have still let myself eat one a few times since I started dieting. But that's like 3 burritos in the last 6 mos, as opposed to 3 a week... And I pretty much plan for the occasion all week, calorically.0 -
I would have to say take-out in general. We still eat it but I make better choices (veggies instead of loaded pizza, steamed instead of fried chinese stuff, etc) and don't stuff myself until I can't move anymore.
Also, not a meal but - no more coffee brandy and milk. Figured it out the other day and with the size of our cups, that one drink was about 500 calories!0 -
I used to go to Hooters and order up the 10-pc breaded chicken wings with medium sauce & fried pickles.
10 Wings = 1732 calories
Fried Pickles = 300 calories
PLUS however many Sprites I would drink...
Wow... just wow...
That's more calories than I'm even ALLOWED in one day, in just ONE sitting!!!0 -
I don't know the calorie count but we used to go out to eat at this mexican restaurant several times a week. I always got a HUGE platter full of fried tortilla chips, covered in about 2 cups of melted queso cheese, and some chicken. Then, I'd have a side of mexican rice and an entire avocado... Not to mention all of the chips and salsa I ate before the meal even came out... Oh, and I always had a coke too!
And I used to eat an entire large pizza to myself.0 -
Pasta, pasta, pasta... Could have it 5 tines a week, and of course preferably a double portion! Roughly 900cal
Same here! My son loves pasta and it was so easy to make after work. I had some pasta the other night but measured the portions and had alot of vegetables with mine. He had his with meat sauce. I used to make penne alfredo with chicken alot. Imagine all that butter in the sauce along with the cals from the pasta??
And I don't even go near McDonald's anymore!! lol0 -

Taco Bell
7 layer burrito
mexi melt and a large Dr. Pepper! 1,145 calories!!!! What the heck!
But my true favorite that I reserve for special occasions......
Spaghetti Factory: Spaghetti with brown butter and mizithra cheese 1040 calories not counting the spumoni ice cream and dr.pepper.0 -
Pizza. LOTS of it. Stuffed crust with sausage and bacon. I dont even want to knowt he calories...cause I can polish the whole thing off. OR cheddars chicken fried steak - 1341 calories. Gross. That one got me to 238 lbs. and little debbies of any kind.0

yummy 1740 calories:noway: :noway: ....last time I went I got the little burger and ate half the fries and it made me sick :sick:0 -
1 slice of large pepperoni pizza from pizza hut (pan crust) 380cal a slice.
sausage mcgriddle from mcdonalds - 420 cal.
my main weakness was really the portions. i still have those from time to time but then i eat healthy the rest of the day. like one slice of pizza instead of 3. =P0 -
Anything from 5 guys where all the burgers are over 1100 calories, and the fries alone are around 700 calories.0
-
Taco Bueno Mexi Dips and Chips. 1086 Calories.. holy ****. I think I usually got a Beef Muchaco with that as a combo. 496 calories. So, 1582 calories for that meal. In comparison, my DAILY calorie goal is 1210-1250 or so.
Taco Bueno does have a chicken taco salad, however, that is only 359 calories as long as you don't eat the fried taco shell. The sodium is high but I would consider that as a "treat" sometime.0 -
edit - double post, sorry0

5 Guys is a Big one but probably the worst I regularly ate was chinese food.
I live next to Chinatown and we would order and large meat Orange or General Tsao chicken or Beed Lad Nar, a large combination fried rice, and an order of pot stickers. Assuming a third went in the fridge, my third was at least 2000 calories. I say at least because I am not willing to add it up at the moment.0 -
My regular worst meal is Five Guys...every Sunday & Wednesday after church I had to have a bacon cheeseburger, fries, and a Dr. Pepper...I gave up burgers for Lent & I started eating hot wings from the pizza shop daily...just talking about this makes me hungry =(0
-
McDonalds: (Ewww, & Ughhhh) Large 10 Piece Nugget Meal, w/ Fries, Sweet Tea, & Bar-B Que Sauce over 1300calories {I ate this almost everyday for about 2-3 or more months}0
-
