And yet it took us 4 pages to get to very logical response. / thread

LOL that's pretty strange for sure!

Your scale is stupid. I mean, who hates cheese? Get a new scale, yours is obviously delusional.

Just one at the moment. Fuzzy is her name. I would love to have a pup or a cat but we just don't have the time.

Water water water! If you're really uncomfortable, eat a couple of prunes or drink some prune juice. Also, physical activity helps to get things moving.

Oh heck no! Even though I live near the ocean, I'll stick with the pool. There's no creatures in there :worried:

I'm not vegan, but there's a guy on here @BecomingBane who is, and is I'm always impressed at his knowledge on the subject. His comments on the ethical and nutritional aspects of veganism are very valuable if you are looking for some direction. Sorry to call you out Bane :)

Eat in moderation and don't worry too much about it. When I'm on vacation, I've learned that there will be a bit of weight gain, but it won't take me long to get back to normal when I get home. Don't stress too much. Enjoy your vacation but don't go nuts. Get back on the wagon when you get home.

This is really weird advice. And totally irrelevant.

THIS. Do you weigh and measure everything you eat, or are you just estimating?

Fellow Canadian here, daily logger and have been on here almost 2 years. Feel free to add me.

I have mixed feelings about the show. On the one hand, I find the psychology fascinating. I also find it incredibly sad that all of the people on the show have suffered some type of unbearable abuse, neglect or trauma in their lives that was the major reason for them overeating to that extent. It's easy for us armchair…

I have no advice on that. I just wanted to say....holy moly! You must be freaking exhausted.

Are you tracking your calories? Weighing and measuring every single thing you eat and drink?

Could you be more specific? Meal tips? Snack tips? Exercise tips?

I must have, yes. If being compassionate means that the inability to resist a cookie should be treated as the same problem as an alcoholic resisting alcohol, I have definitely missed the point entirely. Clearly I am a heartless cow. I apologize for derailing the thread. Back to the OP's point, if you chat with your spouse…

You're right. Clinical and chemical (aka science) is irrelevant.

Equating tempting food to alcoholism is like comparing apples to oranges.

canadianliving.com/food/glory_bowl.php Best salad you will ever eat, guaranteed. Lots of prep work but worth it.

Tucking into a barbacoa bowl as I read this. Mmmmmmmm Chipotle.

Soy milk will give you moobs and orange juice is full of sugar. Your argument is invalid.

Make sure you pack yourself lots of healthy snacks. When you want to reach for a smore, fill up on your snacks instead. Don't be afraid to allow yourself a little treat though. You still have to live, right?

Me too. So weird, isn't it? I don't chew gum unless it's to get rid of nasty coffee-breath.

I do. I love it. The outbreak doesn't freak me out, that could have happened at any restaurant. I don't like to see any business fail. I hope they can come back from it.

If you want to be accurate, yes. You will only need to do it one time though.

I'm presenting another perspective. It's a discussion here on an MFP board, not an argument. Or at least I didn't think it was an argument....

It was a joke. It was funny. Loosen up a little. As for the salad, you will need to use the recipe builder and enter each individual ingredient. Make sure you weigh and measure everything. You will only need to do this once, and then you can select the recipe from your list the next time you eat that salad. This is also…

I get it. I do. And if someone makes that request and the spouse is fine with it, good for them. But I don't think it should be an expectation. If the other person does not wish to eat their chocolate bar in a closet, they shouldn't have to either. It's give and take on both sides. For the record, I don't think someone…

Personal rights? That's a bit dramatic, no? I don't see how a spouse hiding food or refraining from eating it in front of someone helps the situation. What does this person do when they're out in the real world? Ask the gas station to move the snacks out of sight? Ask grocery stores to move the chocolate bars away from the…
