One of the biggest problems for me comes down to beating myself up, just as you're doing. I feel myself starting to fail, I give in and eat trash, and then I eat more to make up for how miserable I feel about how much I'm eating. The trick is realizing it's never too late. You can be down to the last bite of an entire…

Peanut butter and a spoon. Or my fingers, if no one's looking. Mmmm. Have to agree about the serving size though, it's really easy to accidentally grab a quick late night 300-500 calories for me before I've really thought it through.

Nothing's quite so sad as the attention grab of "I'M IGNORING YOU NEENER NEENER." :( I'll have to go drown my sorrows in some Labrada Brand Beef Jerky®. :(

Labrada Brand Pop-Tarts®?

Did you just try to claim that people in the industry weren't trying to sell you something? Good times. Good times. Unfortunately, I don't really know many folks in the industry, because I'm not interested in people selling snakeoil and trying nutrition cures. But there's been enough science dropped on your head in here…

As long as you have quotes from people who are trying to sell you things instead of actual facts and science to back you up. Who can resist the undeniable logic of an appeal to authority?

You're talking about bloggers and a guy who lies at great length about his past steroid use in a thread where people are actually talking about the science of fat burning and rebutting a deeply stupid OP. Sorry that it hurts your feelers that you're listening to cutting edge broscientists. :(

I can kinda see the penance exercising thing, but it's really not necessary at all. Just remember that you used to have days like that all the time before you started counting calories and caring about that sort of thing, get back on the horse, and do it right again. Even a 5,000 calorie day isn't going to completely ruin…

Well, if Labrada and Buff Mother say so, who are we to ignore the great scientists of our age?

If people stopped acting all smug and superior because their way of eating/working out is better than others, I wouldn't recognize the place!

You can tell it's completely unfunny based on the fact that there are a lot of people here agreeing with you, and no one else is joining in with the humor. :(

It's possible to get down to 10% body fat and still be remarkably thick. :P

Should you log the body of Christ as carbs or protein? haha darn it, I got ninja'd.

Seems relevant:

Obviously the largest demographic on MFP are physique competitors and that's where most people are trying to get, so this thread makes a lot of sense for the target audience by saying that cardio is completely 100% worthless to all people at all times. What you're saying is true, but is also functionally worthless to…

I've seen plenty of guys act like insecure ****s around women who were more successful than they are, and all of the attempts to rationalize it away and pretend that it never happens are pretty hilarious, in a really sad way. :(

Rarely in my life have I seen such remarkable synergy between a username and a post.

Nice try, but what do a bunch of dumb doctors know compared to a dude from MFP?

The real secret to the whole thing is to stop pinning your self-worth on the perceptions of others, because they will never fail to disappoint. And the reason for that is because they're all tied up in their heads, same as you are, and don't really give a **** about what you're doing or who you are. No one has time to sit…

Only Joss could have done such an amazing job. It's what he'd been training for with everything else, too. The huge ensemble piece that's about creating realistic emotional bonds and justifying the fact that these people trust each other with their lives and all that. It's really right in his wheelhouse, and just the best…

I have to add to the banana lovers in this thread. If I'm feeling particularly indulgent, I'll measure out a tablespoon of peanut butter and put it on the banana. Or just eat the peanut butter, if I don't have any bananas around. Most of my working out is still running, and I get pretty nauseous around mile 2 if I haven't…

I never thought I'd see such a thing on MFP!

Speaking of Season 6, my vote for most underrated episode of Buffy has got to be Doublemeat Palace. The malaise and oddity of working fast food is just captured so perfectly.

Whenever you're making a stupid argument, make sure to throw in some red herrings to help cover up your stupid argument. Yes, your celiac is a decent reason, but this thread is obviously aimed at the population that are already willing to eat processed foods, as is evidenced by the inclusion of chicken nuggets in the OP.…

She was obviously saying that meat is pure evil and that you're the spawn of Satan himself if you eat meat, and certainly not just saying that you can save a few calories if you substitute the veggie alternative now and again. Always so nice to see reading comprehension in action.

Multiple girls with pictures that focus on their breasts in a drunk thread? I never thought I'd see the day.

Pretty well! My lack of smugness is pretty awesome, and makes me way better than other peop... Aww, man. :(
