  • Just now, a friend of mine sent me this link
    http://www.buzzfeed.com/mattbellassa...eaven-on-earth

    He's 24 can can pretty much eat whatever he wants without consequence. (JERK!) and as I am browsing this page, I am thinking that none of these (cept the fridge full of beer, but as long as it was something other than Bud Light!) are appealing in the least. It wasn't long ago that I would have been drooling right along with him. (Ok, ok... if you put some of those things in front of me, I would probably still eat them) But I don't quite feel the same about them anymore! Feels pretty good. I like it.
  • Yeah no thanks. I like high calorie food pr0n from time to time but all that stuff just makes me think about indigestion and feeling disgusting.
  • None of that is remotely appealing, aside from maybe one or two pizza rolls. Those things are like crack but more than that and I feel craptastic afterwards.

    But yeah, all I saw was a lot of gluttony and over-indulgence. If I overeat it isn't something I'm proud of. It's not necessarily shame, it's just not boastworthy. I'm trying to lessen my emotional attachment to food not make it worse.
  • Yeah...this made me disgusted more than hungry. I would have never done that prior to losing weight, much less now. BLECH!
  • I still love all this stuff, I don't eat it anymore, but I still love it. For a long time I pretended that it didn't even look appetizing anymore, but that just made the battle against it a lot harder. Yes, I want to eat you, but I won't is a lot easier than trying to convince myself that sugar, salt and cheese don't taste good.
  • Don't know if what looks appetizing has just changed or if the over-the-top presentations just turn me off, but I'm with the general consensus on this one -- UGH!
  • Yuck.

    I'd probably eat the pizza if it was shoved under my nose, but yuck on the rest. Even pre-diet, yuck. All that grease would have made me so sick.
  • I'll take the suit case of chocolate!

    Other than the fries, none of the rest of it looked that good.
  • I still like some of the foods shown and would happily eat them, but not in grotesque quantities like that. That made all of them seem unappealing.

    Maybe that was my problem. The mass alone turned my stomach. And some of the displays. BLECH!
  • The Mac and cheese burger looked good!! (Shame on me!!!!) Other than that, nothing else looked appealing to me.

    My husband would be very happy at that Nutella place!!!!
  • I'm scrolling down the page thinking that the food is looking more and more disgusting.
  • I think I could be tempted by some of those foods but obviously not in the state of those pictures! (I don't like men's chest hair with my pizza or my Doritos!)

    The pizza on a stick is one of the tempting items but I have a feeling it's one of those things that looks better than it tastes.

    The McDonalds fries and chicken nuggets are something I have indulged in in my past life but I don't think I could eat them now. Not sure if it would make me sick or it would make me crave them more. I don't trust myself. Same with the Doritos.

    I'm glad that link didn't excite me but I did look at all of the pictures on the way down and then scrolled again back up stopping at every one of them.

    Maybe I am really the "new me"! But I am literally always one step from falling off the wagon and will never tempt myself, I can't. This is my last time.
  • I do enjoy good food p0rn, but this was just too much grease for me. I'm starting to think that the healthier stuff looks better than most of the junk... Crap food just doesn't have the same appealing colors (Ok, yeah... skittles are colorful... lol) But most of it is brown, gray or some color in between, not really very appetizing. It's almost like the color of the food is a reflection of how that food is going to make me feel... brown and gray... makes me feel like crap. Bright greens and reds are happy kinds of colors and I feel happier when I have eaten them.
  • Huh. It all looks good to me. I'm not tempted to eat those portions, but i could certainly see myself getting a plate and fork and knife and dishing some up...fries, pizza, any of it.
