Fast Food.
It’s EVERYWHERE.
Is it good… or bad?
For some, depends on how you look at it.
My blogging buddy Josie over at Yum Yucky, created a Food Fast Cheat Sheet with a great list of foods under 400 calories.
Watching The Biggest Loser last Tuesday, one of the contestants named Mike, started to talk about how he was a “Closet Eater” at it’s finest. Mike would eat roughly about 1,000 calories in a easy 10 minute drive home. Mike would hit MANY fast food drive-thru’s on his way home, he would eat ALL of the food he purchased in a 1o minute spand. He was embarrassed to even let his family {who were obese as well} know he was eating all that food.
It has kept me thinking “do I closet eat?“
Is there food that I love {but doesn’t love my hips} and hide that I eat it? Hmm, something to take in to consideration?
I know that when I weighed my heaviest, well over 220+ pounds {honestly I don’t know HOW big I got in highschool, I just know I wore a size 20} I would easily closet eat, having an extra bowl of pasta AFTER dinner when everyone was done and gone, eating a whole quart of ice cream when I was home alone, heading to Sonic for a route 44 Slushie & Dairy Queen for a Blizzard all in one day. But NEVER letting anyone see me eat ALL this extra, extra, HIGH calorie food.
WHY?
Why should you ever have to hide what you’re eating?
If you’re hiding… does that mean it’s bad? Are you ashamed? Embarrassed?
Why closet eat? I personally think, that anything you feel you have to hide from people because deep down inside you’re embarrassed or ashamed of, then you need to check yourself and asked “WHY am I doing this?”
I can tell you now, that I don’t closet eat. I’m not ashamed of what I’m eating or how much of what I eat.
WHY?
Because I choose to eat healthier, better portions and over-around food that I’m proud to eat. Not a big Dairy Queen Blizzard and Fries on the side that make me feel like crap afterward and during make me think “I should not be eating this”.
I’ve taken control of what I eat. YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT. Your body does reflect what you put in it.
So with speaking of Mike from The Biggest Loser…

Who do you think will be in the FINAL 3 tonight??? DAD or SON? Did you call in and Vote? Who do you think will be the Biggest Loser? Tara? Helen? Mike? Ron? I’m so pumped for the Finale! 
So tell me, have you ever hidden something you’re eating because you didn’t want people to know? Or have you always been fine with whatever you’re eating healthy or junky?
After an hour, my nephew came running up saying “I caught fee fish! Fee fish! Fee fish!” {meaning, “I caught three fish” hehe} They all had such a blast!
I also made cupcakes to take to everyone. Hubs and I were so good and stayed away from them 
VERY Tasty
I picked, Coconut flakes, Dried Cranberries, Almonds, Raisins, Sunflower Seeds, & Flax Seeds.
I love Blogging.
The picture makes it look smaller, but this puppy is huge-o. 
Picked up from Honey Whole Wheat mix at HEB and began the baking experience!
As you can see my husband cut into it before I got to take a picture. It’s SUPER Tasty.
Who’s saying what?
