    Before I altered my eating habits it was crisps and chocolate (Mars bars, Malteser, Minstrels, Milky Way, Bounty). Omg, I'm drooling!
    Now, it's Chinese food. I LOVE szechuan chow mein. Follow that with some caramel honeycombe icecream and I'm happy.


    Omg! I love Chineese food so much, I could polish off 3 plates of sticky rice, orange chicken, general tso, crab rangoon and spicey honey beef and either a pint of ben and jerry's or a whole bar of ritter sport milk chocolate hazel nut.
  • a pound of peanut M&M's an entire 9X13 pan of brownies with a bag of chocolate chips in them and of course a 2 liter of diet coke!

    I would make a large bag of movie theatre butter popcorn, and then mix together a cup of sugar with 1/4 cup cinnamon, and dump the popcorn and cinnamon-sugar in a large bowl to devour the whole thing in one sitting. Sometimes I would melt extra butter to pour on top to help the sugar stick better. LOL When I first joined MFP, I entered it into the recipe calculator to see, out of curiousity, how bad it was. almost 1200 calories... YIKES never again! lol
  • I've had a couple times where I made up a box of brownies or cake mix and just ate... and ate.... and ate...

    Guilty too.... Haven't done that in years. But I used to do that more than I'd like to admit.

    Great posts. I would eat a large pizza, dozen breadsticks, and a 2 liter of diet coke. Later, I would have ice cream or pie.

    It's funny how we fess up after the weight loss. I know some people that are fat that claim they can't lose weight and they don't eat anything.

    Thank you for posting all of these! I am guilty of most of them...alcohol has never been a problem, but cake or brownie batter. Cake has never been an issue once it was cooked, but I have definitely been known to eat a 9x13 pan of brownies fresh from the oven, or an entire bag of chips with french onion dip. And of course a big glass of skim milk or diet coke to make it healthy lol.

    Still dealing with impulse control so I can not have most of these types of things in the house. I tried buying the weight watcher brownies, but ate 3 yesterday to finish the box..... like I said, I am still dealing with impulse control.

    Aw heck, pizza, a POUND bag of M&Ms, XL Hershey bars, cans of chocolate frosting, bags of chips (not all in one sitting, just various binges), you name it. If it's sugary or just junk - it is NOT ALLOWED IN THE HOUSE. I will eat it and eat lots of it!

    INDIAN TAKEAWAYS! I miss them so much! Whenever I'm super hungry i can almost taste it, and I have been known to call for one when i've been a bit down in the dumps. :(

    Chocolate, I got tons over Christmas... & now it's ALL gone :'(
    I ate a full Galaxy chocolate selection box in one day, straight after the other D:

    Also Walkers Sensations Thai Sweet Chilli Crisps, the massive share bags.
    Umm, sour cream, PIZZA! When I get Pizza Hut or Dominos, me & my boyfriend always get a large pizza each which is like 8 slices :| Oh, & I always get Cheesy Bites on my Pizza Hut <3 mmmm. Gosh, I haven't eaten pizza in months.

    MIne would have to be cheese! I am obsessed! I have really cut back on it lately, but it's still really difficult to stay away from it. I have found tht laughing cow is a good substitute :-)

    I used to get home about 10pm, drink a bottle of wine, then find a load of meat, put it in with macaroni cheese then put a load of real grated cheese on top. microwave pour on the ketchup and shove in face. I have not done that in 9 months. How good am I?!?!

    This (without the meat and extra cheese...and you're very good, btw!), and
    I used to drink a whole bottle of wine on occasion...

    this. I'd go out drinking almost every night, and I would down 5 or 6 mixed drinks (whatever the bartender felt like making). I also didn't understand the effects of alcohol on my weight. Now I know 2 drinks affects your fat burning ability by 73%, so I stay away, except for the very rare occasion.

    Also a full bag of Moose Munch, half a large Hawaiian pizza from Ledo's (Ok, the crust is really freaking thin! It's like you're not eating anything!), once in middle school I ate a whole box of LIttle Debbie's Ho-Ho wannabes, a whole tin of chocolate chip cookies given to me one Christmas in high school, and I could open a jar of Goober Grape (peanut butter and jelly mixed together) and plan on eating one bite, then before I know it I've eaten half the jar. That stuff does not come in the house anymore, the kids aren't allowed to have Oreo's in the house, nobody is allowed to put chocolate in my candy dish at work, and I only buy a medium pizza for the kids and me so there aren't any leftovers. I wish I had more self control around chocolate, it's ridiculous. But when I do have an occasional splurge, I work out harder to make up for it. I actually have my best losses the weeks that I allowed myself one splurge day.

    I used to just put water in cake mixes and eat that because I was too lazy to bake it and didn't want to eat raw egg that the recipe called for. When I was desperate for something sweet once, I put frosting on white tortillas-which was surprisingly good (tasted like donuts). I think my greatest fails would be the times I would get money and go to the grocery store, buy cupcakes, rice-a-roni cheese broccoli rice, cookies, and get a large chicken nugget meal from mcdonalds. Then I'd go hide in my room for three days in the dark feeling ashamed of myself, while I played video games.

    I have many, many times in my life eaten just plain frosting. Either rainbow chip canned frosting, or I made vanilla buttercream to eat.

    Ugh.

    And seriously thinking about it makes me feel a little sick and ashamed, but also like I could really go for some! And that sucks. I hope I don't feel like that forever.

    18 battered mozzerella cheese sticks and about a cup of sour cream for dipping. I had to give away my deep fryer!

    I can Hoover a whole bag of cool ranch Doritos in one sitting. Thank goodness those days are over. But I still can't have them in my house or they start to speak to me from the cabinet.
  • I used to sit down in front of the tv with a box of flavored crackers, a bottle of miracle whip and pickled green olives. I would scoop about a tbsp. of miracle whip on each cracker, put the olive on top and eat, over and over and over again. I never kept count, but there was at least 20 crackers eaten in one sitting. One day my husband was home and I did that in front of him. It grossed him out so much, he talked to me about it and I saw what I was doing to myself. It's been at least 2 years since I did it.

    My problem now would be chips, Doritos or Ketchup chips - If I buy the family bag, it's gone in one sitting. I don't keep it in the house, but every so often I still get a craving and will go and get a bag - once every couple of months or so. I'm really trying, but I find if I don't let myself eat what I'm craving once in a while, I will binge even more.

    Oh man, grilled cheese sammiches. Or toast with melted cheese. Okay, anything with melted cheese.

    And no matter what size bag of chips, I will eat them all. And all the candy. And all the chocolate.


    I still eat all of these things, just in moderation. Except chips. When I buy those, I do it on RARE occasions and I enjoy the entire bag.

    Every couple of weeks I like to get Medium order of hot wings, small motzarella stick. Ate every last bite, fell disgusting afterwards but still would do it again and again. I'm only my 1st week out so hope that doesn't happen again.

    I love this topic. I think a lot of people won't admit to the things they eat in private and that's how we end up overweight in the first place! Luckily now I don't eat anything I would be ashamed of someone seeing me eat anymore.

    My favorites were:

    -A whole box of mac & cheese
    -A 2 cheeseburger meal from McDonalds (with a diet coke haha). I would finish one cheeseburger and a few fries and get full but still truck on through the rest of it.
    -Entire bags of buttery popcorn
    -CANDY. I am a candy fiend and I would finish a whole bag from Sweet Factory in about 2 days.
    -Potato chips. Potato chips are my weakness and I can't keep them in the house or I know I'll do it again. I'd finish a whole big bag in a day or two.

    Edited because how could I forget my WINE! At least once a week I'd sit and catch up on my DVR and drink a whole bottle of cab. Now I just treat myself to a glass or two every now and again.
