    Oh man switching the diet up by removing meat (for lent) except seafood and I was hungry a lot but started eating hummus and more dense foods which are all veggies, but I build in that allowance for some oreo's/icecream because that is what I enjoy eating and altogether I am sticking to that calorie goal.

    I ate half a rotisserie chicken last night with some rice-a-roni and a popsicle because I had a ton of calories and carbs left at the end of the day...I think I qualify

    I love rice-a-roni.

    Man, it's getting time for an "off-plan" meal. I'm currently in training for my next powerlifting meet, and have to meet my calories and macros really closely. Every once in a while, I need cheeseburgers or chimichangas or cheesecake. Trying to decide what to eat. All suggestions welcome! :D

    I could go for some chimichangas. I do love a good cheeseburger, though. And cheesecake...so so good.

    I'm also a sucker for appetizer food like onion rings and cheese sticks.

    Oh, man! Buffalo Wild Wings onion rings with their spicy dip! More drooling going on here!

    I have 4 bottles of southwestern ranch left (notice I said left lol) from Buffalo Wild Wings. I bought them on E-bay because my location didn't have any. Pricey. No regrets. Lol.

    I eat pretty clean most of the time because I only eat 1450 and I prefer volume. Occasional nutitionally sketchy snack but nothing crazy. Add me

    I absolutely LOVE Kodiak Cakes... I want to suggest them every time I see a thread with one of those sad banana egg pancake recipes.

    I am a new Kodiak Cakes convert... I make waffles with it about once a week and top with ff Greek yogurt, maple syrup, and whatever else I feel; last weekend some strawberries were involved

    Also; had me a pint of Halo Top black cherry last night because I had a zillion calories and macros left. It was really good; lemon cake and birthday cake are still my faves though ❤️

    I have fallen for a half cup of cookies and cream Halo Top on top of a medifast brownie while it's still hot. So good!

    Wings, burgers, chocolate. You are my people!

    I'm still figuring this out, but right now as long as I can maintain a 500 calorie deficit I pretty much allow myself to eat whatever I want.

    I feel like I had a small hand in derailing the 'garbage advice' thread into a discussion devoted largely to pizza, and I'm ok with that. It's been a fun way to waste the workday!

    Reading along in that thread is kind of like watching a train wreck - it's horrifying but I can't look away.

    That thread is ridiculous and generalizes people and their needs. The fact is that it is 100% WRONG. You can eat ANYTHING under your calorie goal and lose weight...IF you have self-control. The fact is not about if you can handle the pressure or not. You technically *would* lose weight if you could handle it. Some people do not have that self-control and that is OKAY and not their fault, but it doesn't change the facts of calories-in-calories-out.

    Exactly! And I feel kind of bad because it's like 5-10 veterans having to repeat themselves over and over to like 2 people who are just adamant that they are right about only eating clean (or whatever they are arguing about now) and refusing to listen to veterans who have done this for YEARS and are still doing this and are trying to help people. It makes me sad that threads like that have scared a lot of veterans away.

    Yeah a lot of good vets got banned too for being honest and giving advice that people perceived as "mean".

    Hey I dont really like dominos but I agree those toppings were odd...except the onions looked good. But this is why we each can have our own pizza :smiley:

    And the crust was burned! That is almost blasphemous as that is the best part of the pizza for me. LOL

    ETA- I wanted to do so many different things at the Domino's I managed but corporate only "took my ideas into consideration". That was code for we will keep serving what we serve. But the dough was fresh and the cheese is real mozzarella.

    We definitely don't agree there LOL I sometimes (often) throw the crust away! My boyfriend loves the crust so if I dont he eats it for me 75% of the time.

    What I like to do is fold the last bites of the slice over the crust and kinda have a cheesy breadstick type thing.

    And neither my hubby nor I eat the crust on pizza. Too much starch for him, and I don't like white bread.
