So... WHO WANTS TO KNOW IF I FINISHED THE 12 EGG OMELET OR NOT???
Truth is... I didn't finish it. It is hard to tell from the pictures, but everyone agreed I ate 85% of the bad boy and my (bitter) boyfriend took down 50%. I was full, but not overly stuffed. I was able to walk around and go on with my day just fine. I even ate more later! Thanks for everyone's opinions on my board where I asked what I should do. I feel like I could have shoveled in the last bit of omelet but I didn't want to be miserable on vacation
The first picture is us taking our first few bites.
The second picture is what was left of my plate- excuse me, PIZZA PAN, when I finished.
The third picture is us holding up our plates together- again, the angle is tough, but he had a considerable amount left compared to mine.
We also enjoyed a great Hawaiian restaurant while we were in Seattle called Ohana- yum! The Flying Apron coffee shop has some great coffee and great pastries. What else what else... Cactus Mexican restaurant was pretty amazing, too. Great trip!!!
So did you weigh yourself this morning? How much did you gain? We went to Oklahoma over the weekend and I was pretty good and still gained 7 pounds. LOL
I gained a total of 2.5 pounds! It sucks taking a couple steps back like that but it was worth it to me. I ate some great food and had a great time with his family!

Well, that's pretty awesome if you ask me! You can lose that with a healthy trip to the bathroom...
Doesn't seem fair that I actually tried to stay reasonably on plan and gained 7 pounds and you set out to binge and only gained 2.5 Oh well. Hopefully I'll be back to normal by the weekend...so I can do it all over again.
We walked around pretty much all day every day, and I used their apartment complex gym once. I am still pretty young and have a decent amount of muscle on me. That's my only explanation for the small weight gain
Whether a person is at goal weight or not, I feel this is inappropriate here. So many of us struggle with binge eating and this sort of purposeful over eating is opposing we are trying to do here. Sorry if I sound negative to your happiness, but I felt really disturbed and saddened by this post.

I'm really sorry if one of my posts offended you. Trust me when I say I totally know what you mean. Actually, I also struggle with binge eating and usually try and stay away from 3FC on "Confession Mondays". It is hard to do the healthy thing when you read of everyone's binge fests confessions after the weekend...and even worse everyone else's "love and support" of them. I'm sorry.

I think this thread is appropriate b/c here is a person who has made goal, maintaining, and is partaking in an activity that is food related. I think we are all hoping to transition to some sort of normal food activity. Having a normal relationship with food does mean sometimes not minding calories and just eating something crazy with no guilt. We have to remember food is part of our lives in many ways, in times of celebration and grief. I think it's ok to have an activity like this planned out, partake, and show that it doesn't have to totally derail a person's progress. This is an important lesson IMO.♠
Sorry if the thread offended your sensibilities but it was clear what this thread was about in it's title. This was an ongoing dilemma for the poster and I am happy to see that she was able to make a choice she was comfortable with and enjoy herself.
