So I went to the gym with my buddy yesterday (my off day, just a little cardio)...

Well, he was apparently surprised by my raised arms and shout of "CHALUPA!" when I finished.... and questioned whether he heard "snickers' while his headphones were on earlier...

Let me back up...

As the calorie counter on the elliptical passes by... I have milestones (usually just in my head)
280 : Snickers
370 : Taco Bell Chicken Chalupa Supreme
750: Double Quarter Pounder
1000ish: Wendy's Triple Quarter Pounder!

Well, I was happy to get my 370 in relatively quickly (20-25 minutes?) on a machine I'd never used, so I shouted out "CHALUPA!"...

Anyhow, had to share.... Figured some of you guys might get it at least :D

    Haaaaah. Yes I get it.... :laugh: I take it, you don't shout out "Yogurt" after you burn 80-130 calories?? Or what about "FUJI" after you burn enough to eat a apple?

    I do that too.

    I always think in terms of cupcake, pizza, steak, cheeseburger, and other delicious goodness.

    I have yet to figure out if it's sad that I fantasize about food while I bust my *kitten* at the gym. I'll get back to you on that.

    I have to make a decision based on that often, since it's the same amount of calories as a planter's trail mix, but the trail mix has twice the protein :D

    I am so going to think in chocolate now and there's some that fit so well into the gym... cadbury ripple for example :laugh: (174 if you were wondering)

    Just in general, most candy bars are 250-300 calories. I work in a convenience store and I've read every label on everything about 20 times.

    I live my life to eat at least semi-badly within my calories, I can safely say I'd never be excited to fit another apple into my day calorie wise, but if that works for you, go for it :D

    Heeee. I was just joking about the apple & yogurt. Not everything I eat is a whole food group. :happy: ... I have the semi badly within limits days as well.
