By that, I mean what is/was your most embarrassing/unhealthy food/eating habit that you had in the past? I have two really bad ones...well, had anyways.

I used to eat an entire box of Betty Crocker Suddenly Pasta Salad in the bacon and ranch flavor. I make it with light miracle whip instead of mayo, but still...that's pretty bad! :embarassed: Now, I don't make the whole box at one time so I avoid eating too much.

My other really bad habit was eating an entire 8oz block of Cabot extra sharp cheddar cheese in one day! I would do this a few times a week! Now, I only have an ounce or two at a time and make sure it fits into my calorie goal!

Surely I'm not the only one who had a few terrible guilty pleasure foods out there! Share yours!

    Jack in the Box 2 for $1 Tacos. Those were a serious addiction for about 2 months. I finally got over it once my boyfriend gave me permission to eat them, before I'd been sneaking it and feeling guilty about it, weirdly once he let me eat them I didn't want them any more.

    Food in general. It didn't matter what it was, I had to eat it until I was so stuffed I'd feel sick.

    I'm a (recovering) tortilla chip addict!!! I love the On the Borders chips, and I would mix up Ranch dressing with Franks Red Hot sauce to dip them in. I also love salsa and guacamole, but they're not nearly as bad for you as my spicy ranch dip. Now, I only buy tortilla chips for when friends come over...I can't just have them in the house!

    Mine is/was Betty Crocker chocolate or vanilla frosting. Yes, I can eat an entire can of the stuff, and it is so very good. I don't bring it in the house (I can't as it won't survive, and then I won't fit into my clothes)!

    I can eat a whole pan of brownies. I mean a 8x8 pan of thick gooey brownies. 1 day. Not even a day... A couple hours.

    Ranch on practically anything. (No longer have this habit though thank goodness!)



    Another thing I used to do is eat a whole pizza with my boyfriend (yes we'd each have one whole medium pizza)! Yikes! He's still skinny but hey, look at me! :noway:

    Probably my birthday last year. I ate at McDonald's two big macs, 6 piece chicken nuggets, medium fries, and a large coke. Blech! I would never eat that much sober. Makes me sick to think I did that to my body. Also I used to eat half a pizza on a pretty normal occasion. I still have a hard time passing up Taco Bell and Taco Time sometimes, but I try to keep it in a reasonable. I have problems with cookies and sweets, so I usually don't buy them. I'll eat them all in one sitting.

    Little Caeser's pepperoni pizza. It's still hard for me to eat pizza because I feel like I have to eat the whole thing in one sitting.

    CHOCOLATE! I would buy a big block of it, plan to share it & then lie & in bed & eat the whole lot.

    I still eat chocolate but I buy smaller bars of it now & I do share it :)

    Drinking wine like 4-5 nights a week... not only was it tons of empty calories but it made me want to munch even more, on bad food!

    Crunchy granola bars. Ya know those healthy ones that come 2 to a pack. I would probably eat 3 packs in one sitting...they taste like cookies to me. I don't buy them anymore because I don't I just can't resist them. :)

    I also love chips and salsa...so I can't buy the chips anymore and I've just found other uses for the salsa. :)

    Really guilty pleasure is real mayonnaise on a Triscuit cracker. That and the whole pot of mac and cheese. Some foods just have to be black listed for me. Oh, and one time I ate 5 donuts in 15 minutes. Some food is like heroin for me. Such a struggle. There is no "super model I'm eating one bite of cheese burger." When it goes, it really, really goes.
