Fast food every day did it for me. That, and a pint of ice cream for dinner with a side of crackers or cookies.

When I was little..we used to buy these containers of cookie dough..and I would just eat out of it allllllllll the time!!! So to throw my mom off, I would make cookies often and make them huge!! LoL!! (she's probably reading this from Heaven going.."I KNEW IT", lol!!) I also used to eat sugar straight from the sugar bowl.

I told my husband that I had motion sickness and couldn't go on a roller coaster this summer. Well, I don't have motion sickness, I just knew I was too big for them to close the drop down harness thingy. So now he's convinced I get motion sickness easy and always asks me if I am ok with certain activities. When I finally loose this weight, I will have to fess up so I can get on a roller coaster someday.

Last year I would exercise regularly. BUT at our school we had a great cafeteria that served three course meals every single day and you could pre-pay for the month! So instead of packing a lunch, I would eat there fooling myself into thinking that at least it wasn't fast food. soooo, I would have breakfast, bring a snack for the morning, a snack for the afternoon and have this giant lunch! Every day except for Thursdays and that day we'd go out.
I was actually suprised I was gaining weight. Silly girl, me.

I used to go KFC that was attached to a Taco Bell and order something from both places. Usually, a mashed potato bowl with no corn and a beef and cheese quesadilla.

A stick of butter coated in sugar is called a Shame Stick. This I learned from watching 'According to Jim'.

P.S. No I've never tried this and never would; blech!

Hiding food so no one else knew it was in the house or buying food, eating it all then replacing it so no one would know . . . gosh, didn't everyone do this at one time or another?

My worst habit of all was fast food breakfasts. Usually McDonalds. From the years 2002-2004 it was not usual for me to have a 1200 calorie breakfast. I would eat 2 sandwiches (egg mcmuffin, etc) and a medium coke (regular). I would say 6 days a week I ate like this. My husband had no clue. I never realized at the time the thought of going to class then work afterwards was stressful, and I ate to cope. I gained 80 ish pounds in a little over a year. It was a wonder I didn't weigh more than 256 pounds at my highest. Thank God I don't do this anymore, haven't done it regularly since 2005. Now it's a few times a year thing.

i used to take the bus home from work. i would stop at the mall- get myself some fast food eat it, come home make dinner and never tell my husband that i'd had two dinners. gah!
i still am trying to break the habit of lying to my husband about what i eat. he makes it really hard because he wants to restrict so many things if i want a freaking bagel he gets mad at me. so sometimes i sneak things, i know it's terrible and i always feel awful about it.
