I'm tempted to eat junkfood right now...

[elle simple]

...and I kind of already did.

Ate scrambled eggs, tater tots and white rice for bkfst, slathered in high fructose ketchup and hot sauce (yes, it was good lol)

Now I'm thinking Pizza Hut sounds good for lunch. :thumbsdow

But I dont REALLY want to do that. Any thoughts on the reason for such insistent and unhealthy craving, and how I might avoid it? Talk me out of this!!?

What's a healthier option that might satisfy a taste for something greasy?? (I guess that's what's tempting me?)

[ArizonaBeauty]

Yo I've been fiending for some chocolate cookies, cake or something. I settled for graham crackers and 2% milk which I've learned I can tolerate drinking.

I also eat sorbert ice cream but nothing is better than some Ms. Fields cookies and milk.:inlove:

[Priest B. Pimpish]

Tomorrow you will wake up as Elle Pimple.

If you're gonna eat pizza, might as well buy this: http://www.amyskitchen.com/products/images/400/00103.jpg :yes:

[elle simple]

^ LoL that is actually a good discouragement

I did okay tho... found the strength to walk past the Pizza Hut to this egyptian place and am currently busy with some grilled ahi. There's a side salad too but they put sauce all over it and now it's wilted and gross booo I HATE when foods touch, esp hot & cold.

Amy's products are TASTY if a little overpriced. I like the pot pies and spinach feta pocket and mexican items... I dont think no-cheese pizza would have satisfied me today lol

Washing down my lunch with a diet Pepsi, I'm telling myself the bubbles and chemicals will kill the greasy food craving heh we'll see tho

AZ I eat sorbet like it is going out of style! It's good as hell (esp fresh) but what I REALLY want is like a gallon of Breyer's Mint Chocolate CHip *drool*

you should have 1 cheat day a week to keep you from sneaking in junk in between the week

[7:30femmefatale]

elle, let me tell you about my horrible, unexplainable sugar binge that i embarked on last week.. it lasted for about 24 hours, roughly.. in that time i consumed the following: (and keep in mind that i almost NEVER eat sugar)

1 entire box of italian biscotti cookies (about 25 cookies roughly)

1 large slice of key lime pie

1 XL slice of orange&cream pie

1 super XL carrot cake cupcake w/ cream cheese icing

most of a bag of pepperidge farm dark chocolate milano cookies

an entire box of key lime tea cookies

chocolate cannoli

ENORMOUS sugar cookie with thick icing

ENORMOUS chocolate chunk cookie

slice of lemon cake

lg cream cheese danish

sm tiramisu

several misc bites of other desserts being eaten around me, i guess they'd all equal one large dessert

my entire system shut down on me, i was tired and lethargic, couldn't think clearly, got a headache, was wired and then crashing, and was just ALL out of sorts.

that sh*t was fiya though:evil:

[MisterMCJ™]

Sweets and salt are my downfall

My current junk food in the crib are the oreo cookies and cream version of these (http://www.marinaicecream.com/images/klondike%20bar%20original.gif) and these (http://www.taquitos.net/dbimages13/SnyderBerlin-Kettle-SSMV.jpg)

[khalid a.k.a Genocide]

nothing wrong with indulging your appetite, as long as its not more than 1 or two(AT MOST) times a week. Of course thats if you're some sort of controled eating a.k.a diet. Anyway, I usually have one to three cheating meals on my cheat day. yeah buddy!!!!!:evil: :)

LMAO

i was just gettin off my period when this binge happened.. i DO always notice how badly i want chocolate the week before and during that time, though.. that sh*t is not an old wives tale at ALL.

dark chocolate gets me the worst.. i can make myself sick on it, don't get me alone with a bag of it..

ahhh, sweet halloween..

[2gunsup]

first year watching what i eat in my life, forget Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years is coming............i could easily consume 10000 calories on each day....omg

at my house they have big ass feasts during these holidays and alot of liquor

i wont be eating a fuc!ing salad while everyone around me eats turkey, pork, lasagna, potatoe salad, rice, ham, shizzzzzzzzzz

and then the leftovers last for a fuc!ing week, im going to easily gain back everything ive lost..

[ArizonaBeauty]

I just came from subway and with my 6 in turkey sandwich, I got ONE chocolate chip cookie. That had to be the best cookie I've ever tasted.

true story, im better off not even seeing it

[elle simple]

whoa@Femme?! LoL! I got a cavity just reading that! Were you at a party or sum'n?? not that I'm not feeling you~ those hormonal impulses will fluck you up if you dont give in to em, or so I've heard :guilty:


When the chocolate-monster takes over my body, I try to tame the beast with a cup (or three) of really rich Ghiardelli hot chocolate... none of that watery Nestle Quik will cut it... it has less fat & calories than a Mars bar, anyway.

no, i was just on a mini-vacation where the food was REALLY fukkin' good.. and i couldn't control myself.

fat and sugar-free jello chocolate fudge pudding is also a really good substitute for chocolate pangs when you want something that tastes really rich.. and if you freeze it for an hour or so, it's like a little fudge ice cream cup or somethin akin.. :smoker:

[elle simple]

Oh evil, evil day of temptation!!!

Didnt hit me how hard Halloween would be til I walked into work to find I'd been 'treated' at my desk: mini oreos, Reeces Pieces, Hershey's Kisses, a biscotti and some Junior Mints :blink:

I'm resisting the urge to devour them all for breakfast. The biscotti is going down tho, soon as I get my coffee.... :evil:

[2gunsup]

i eat whatever I want as long as I stay in my calorie ranges and I cheat 1 day a week, muthafuc!ing chinese food!

[elle simple]

Today I ate two bread rolls with I-cant-believe-its-not-butter slathered all over them, and 16oz of black coffee. This after a weekend junk food binge.... Yesterday I ate ok, but the five lbs I lost turned into 3 :( Was feeling tight, now just aight.

And these dark chocolate and mint mini-KitKats here at my job are calling to me! Save me from myself aaaah :blink:

[7:30femmefatale]

elle, i feel your pain. i do.

today is a holiday dessert carry-in at work, and everyone brings their things back to MY department, because i'm in charge of rationing it all out to ensure there's plenty for every break and lunch in our facility.. what a cruel job!!!!

yes, i volunteered for it. :guilty::laugh:

[khalid a.k.a Genocide]

I usually pig out on thanksgivings, as in the WHOLE thanksgivings weekend. Yep, but of course it doesn't throw off my eating habits that much since my diet is in check for most of the year.

EATING(in a controlled(sp?) manner) IS VITAL!!!!!!!!! Yass zirr:yes:

[AnotherGirl]

*eyes cranberry cream cheese bars*

*mouthwaters*

i also usually eat whatever i want on thanksgiving...sweets ..carbs the works. last year i went to the gym Thanksgiving morning. i prolly will tomorrow before i start cooking as well..

sometimes that's what you gotta do, you know? it's not even so much about your body as it is your mental state. you just FEEL better if you know you exercised the day(s) you eat like that.

my boyfriend is staying with me for 5 days starting tonight, and much to his chagrin (i'm sure), i WILL be awake bright and early every morning exercising.. business as usual. lol

[Big H]

Well let me be the first to say I've been eating like a fat kid on a three day pass at Little Debbie's. Started Sunday with Thanksgiving break and I ain't stoppin till Friday. We're off this entire week so the campus is closed... including the Gym :thumbsdow I'm stuck here working so going back home was not an option. I usually do this every time we have a week long break from school. We have 52 weeks in a year and for 50 of those weeks I'm training and eating healthy... two weeks off won't hurt haha.

daaaayum *salivates all over thread* those seriously sound GOOOOOD. except that first one, idk what that's about LoL. Thank God we dont have a day like that at my work.


i also usually eat whatever i want on thanksgiving...sweets ..carbs the works. last year i went to the gym Thanksgiving morning. i prolly will tomorrow before i start cooking as well..

I'm mentally set for an a.m. run tomorrow too, and wont be restraining myself too too much except on my weakness BEER. I'm not having any of that. Which of course just leaves more room for the sweets :guilty:

I'm making a pecan pie to inflict on the other dinner guests (not to mention my waistline). I love pecan pie, even after I found out it's basically sugar plus sugar plus nuts in a pre-processed crust. Best is heated up w/ice cream, Oh Lord, I give thanks!!

I got the same problem as Big H that the campus gym is closed (grrr) but I'll get my BF to get me in at his commercial gym where I can at least sweat out some food in the stream room if I'm too comatose to do anything else

Happy feasting everyone!

I just had a croissant-flan type dessert for breakfast... it was like the best french toast in the world, times 100. You know you are in glutton mode when you pass out after eating but are already looking fwd to the meals you'll eat the next day :guilty:

Hahaahaha, I started catchin that Itis after eating when I began having cheat meals. Up until that point I could eat huge amounts of food and still be active enough to play sports or workout.

I won't lie though, the sleep you take after a heavy meal is king sh*t; rivals post-sex sleep if you ask me haha.

[spongebob03]

I've been eating like a pig since Thanksgiving day. I said fukk the gym and cutting back on eating. I'm off on thursdays, fridays and saturdays. So I've enjoyed myself. I've ate two big plates of every thing each day and I'm ate a whole thing of banana pudding my mom made. My stomach stayed swollen these past few days. Tomorrow I'll go back to eating right and I'm gonna start to go to the gym before work everyday. To bad I won't be able to pig out around christmas this year since I got to work on christmas eve, christmas day and the day after christmas. I don't like working with a full swollen stomach. Its makes me feel really lazy, uncomfortable, sleepy and I'm not gonna want to work.

[AnotherGirl]

haha. best thing about belonging to a gym that only closes one day out of the 365 day year(new years day) is no after holiday feasting guilt. i've eaten like a pig for the past 2 days and drank enough to put a small winery out of business. ah well back to business as usual (untll X-mas that is :evil: )
