    In these situations i eat the whole pie. Why?

    A: better off being over 3500 calories one day then over 500 each day if you rationed it out over a week.............(for weight gain/loss purposes anyway) Can't store 3500 calories over in a day as fat, but if you eat 500 over for a week you will gain a pound.

    B: If you eat an entire pie, usually the next day you dont want more pie
    Yes, but this option won't help her get over craving/desire to binge. Changing her behavior to eat one piece every few days instead of an entire pie in one sitting will, eventually, get rid of these desires to binge (or at least lessen them). Eating an entire pie could put her right back at square one. If you want a true lifestyle change, that means no more pies in their entirety, not until the desire to binge is gone for good and you can trust yourself.

    Get the bakery pie, but just a slice! Do not buy the whole pie. If they make you pay for the whole pie, have them cut you a slice and tell them to give a free slice to the next 5 customers.
    The ****? I ain't giving away pie. Hell no.

    That can get you in more trouble than you're asking for.

    I'm against pie sharing as well. :devil:

    Would it be bad to reward yourself with a whole banana cream pie for weight loss success?

    How about the banana cream pie light yogurt? They are actually pretty good!

    If the dragonangel wants pie let her get a cream pie. She has earned it.

    I think you should do it, and not feel bad. Eating the whole pie is not a binge! If she wants to reward herself, let her. Get off your high horses, people!

    I will not judge you :)

    Eat the pie then work out for 5-6 mins extra each day this week.

    eating a whole pie might give you a tummy ache but it's not going to undo all of your progress.

    I think if you ate the entire pie you would feel rather ill... Maybe just have a slice or 2... Than save the rest for another day.

    Why don't you take a more balanced approach to dieting, incorporating "unhealthy" foods occasionally?

    2790 calories, 153 grams of fat in Marie Callender's. The bakery version is likely worse.

    Thanks! Ya that is definately guilty pie!

    EDITED to add: I missed the part about you wanting a whole pie! Yeah, probably not the smartest thing.

    I completely disagree. I'm a pastry chef and I work in a bakery. I just analyzed my recipe and it came out to


    Nutrition Facts
    Serving Size 198 g
    Amount Per Serving

    Calories 494

    This is from a pie that would make 8 servings. If it's a quality bakery and they use real, fresh ingredients I don't see the big deal if it fits in your macros.

    But the thing is ...who actually stops after one serving? LOL

    So a few weekends ago I decided to have a cheat day I wouldn't log. I had been DYING for chocolate cake and I was going to eat as much of it as I wanted. I chose a day and gave myself permission to eat ALL THE CAKE. So I sat down with a giant piece and I could only finish about half. At a certain point, I really did feel satisfied and it wasn't fun to make myself eat any more after that point, so I wrapped it up for another time and it ended up being not too bad in terms of going over my calories. Nothing I couldn't compensate for with working out and being mindful the rest of the week.

    In short, eat some pie.

    If you can eat just one slice, go for it. If you are like me, you may not be able to stop at just one slice--especially if you have been watching your calories for a while. If I could eat just one of ______ fill in the blank, I wouldn't have put on 50 lbs since I got married.
    Think carefully about who you are and what your trigger foods and limitations are. That one slice could send you down a path that will have you breathing hard, holding your stomach and covered in whipped cream! Just saying...:-)

    I bought a whole tripleberry pie just before I started my program. I cut it up into slices, wrapped each one and froze them. When I am down where I want to be, I will have a slice....should keep that long. ;)
