Admitting an Addiction

Apr 07, 2005 14:24

I have a horrible addiction to those Easter Cadbury mini chocolate eggs. I keep telling myself I'll only eat 1, but that leads to 12... I'm trying so hard to eat right and exercise everyday. I really want to tone the figure a little better. Chocolate eggs, you are my nemesis! What I'd really like is a fitness/health goal to work towards and ( Read more... )

I work out six days a week for 90 minutes. I wanna get more cut, I'm already muscular. I've whittled my diet down to fruits, vegetables and water. I eat VERY little meat. I get my protein via milk in my cereal or from yogurt. I'm working towards ripped abs and eventually total body "shredness." I pig out one day a week, my "cheat day." Usually on saturday. Eat well all week, then eat all the cadbury eggs you want on your cheat day. Try it...

I'll run your ass around the gym!

Wow, good for you! I was thinkin more along the lines of just some online goals like running a 8 minute mile by the end of the month, losing an inch around the waist, etc. Just having to be accountable to my buds online about it.

Given that I am struggling to consume 1000 calories a day (and that is with the help of chocolate and fast food) and that I'm, y'know, kind of handicapped I don't think I'm your (wo)man. But I wish I could be... I want to work out :(

Wow, you can only eat that much? How have you been feeling lately?

Eh, kind of sick... A lot more sick now that it seems as though the scholarship committee can't understand English... This is ridiculous.

YOU NEED TO TAKE HOLLY'S STRATEGY AND LIVE WITH THE FOOD NAZI

I did live with you! However, Doug and Ruben's eating habits kind of cancelled you out.

Yeah...they're bad apples

I have a good goal for you: don't buy anything with hydrogenated oils in it. Look at the label of any processed food that you purchase, and make sure that it doesn't have a hydrogenated or partially-hydrogenated oil. This'll do two things for you: it'll significantly cut back the trans fats in your diet (which are really bad for you) and it will probably make you supplement your diet with unprocessed foods that are lower cal.

Sorry, but Cadbury eggs have lots of trans fats in them :(

Poor lady! You'll make it through and soon you'll have your lovely degree to hang on the wall and... throw darts at?
