McDonalds for Lunch

I went against my diet in the worst way and got a double quarter pounder with extra cheese and bacon. Most unhealthy thing I've eaten for months, but it was sooooo good!!! Anyone else have any super unhealthy splurges?

  • Yummy McDonald's makes me want some right now:( I have had myself order their double cheese burger with a mcchicken sandwich with fries and I'll eat some of my husband's chicken nuggets hahaha
  • Mmmmm ive had subway the past 2 days for lunch only because mcdonalds is too far from work. Tomorrow hubby and i will probably make a stop there when we go to walmart and to visit family! I try not to eat out but my husband brought home groceries and got a giant bag of pepperoni and bread and mayo to make sandwiches this week. Yuck.
  • I had half a KFC bucket last night and it was bl*ddy lovely, no regrets :)

    @BrooklynBroussard Oh boy. We had a similar situation in our house. My boy was kicking my butt at Monopoly and we had no pre-prepared food or leftovers in the house and I didn't want to cook.
    Big. Fat. Tears.
    That's what you get when you don't buy frozen meals or boxed food. Lol! Sad panda for sure that night.
  • My doctors appointment today is taking the place of my lunch break. I will definitely be stopping at either taco bell or burger king after. And it will be glorious!

    @edavis926 taco bell is the best fast food ever. It is seriously the one thing I have craved this entire pregnancy!
  • @katanasai I also obsess over the mozzarella sticks at sonic! But I've had a few times where the thought of anything BUT taco bell has made me want to throw up! (I have a bad habit of accidentally waiting too long to eat and then feeling sick)
  • Definitely let myself have fast food here and there! Taco Bell has been my go to lunch if I eat out (not too often). But today I forgot my lunch in the hot car so I had to go buy something....and I decided on Culvers. Eating a salad with a side of cheese curds as we speak!
  • @edavis926 I don't realize I'm hungry until I'm sick half the time. It's not much fun. Mozzarella sticks are insanely good!

    Its completely unlike me, but I've been stopping at the 7-11 down the road for slurpees when I'm walking the dog with DH. I just grab a small one for on the walk back home, but gosh its become a habbit! I've also dropped by culvers on the way back from the pet supply store, its right down the road and gosh the smells when you get close!

  • My insanely guilty pleasure this pregnancy has been a spicy Asiago ranch chicken sandwich from Wendy's...I NEVER eat fast food. But it's heaven. In my mouth. Every time. To feel better about this I only have limited myself to one a month. \:D/
  • Taco Bell has been my occasional splurge. Crunchwrap supreme with nachos. Yummmmmm. Nachos and cheese has always been my weakness... ;) 
  • I've been eating chik fila some but the really bad things I've been craving are Dunkin donuts-- I love choc glazed donuts and decaf iced coffee. Oh and Coke slurpees (I don't even drink soda!)

    But I've been thinking about McDonald's lately so I know it's only a matter of time!
  • Now I want taco bell!!! I haven't had it in years.  Good thing the closest one is like 15 min away or I'd so be getting some right now!
  • I love had mcdonalds twice this week. Bc hubby was not home for dinner Monday and only thing I passed. And then my coworker wanted to go for lunch the other day and that is only close place other than jimmy johns and can't have lunch meat. Got a chicken sandwich both times so not bad, but with fries... I never eat fast food unless on rode trip
    But have been kinda bad while pregnant.
  • I have been eating fast food (originally BK and now I've moved on to Wendy's) weekly. I still am struggling to eat and having days I am sick. I usually limit it to once a week, but once I hit a day I am not feeling any food or day after I've been sick I am all for it. So unhealthy, but an easy way to knock off 1,100 of the 2,300 calories I am supposed to be eating these days! 

    The best part is I had eaten fast food maybe three times in the past five years before being pregnant. Who have I become??
  • @mkross123 exactly! I hardly ever eat fast food, mostly because we don't want to spend the extra money on food that isn't nutritious. Since I got pregnant this time it's been pizza cravings, taco bell cravings, burger king cravings... and don't get me started on the ease of fast food vs cooking all the time!
  • Well, my fffc was that I ate enough cookies for breakfast to make myself feel sick... So, yeah... Then I just had Chipotle for dinner.

    Whataburger, #4. Guilty. I always want to order a fried pie with it too, but I never do. I must be eating healthy then ;)

    I love the chocolate glazed donuts at Dunkin Donuts! We don't have any Dunkin Donuts in Minnesota anymore (though I heard that may be changing!!)....but I seek them out at airports and when I go to other states!
  • The whole first half of my pregnancy with my son I couldn't keep anything (literally)down except McDonald's French fries and McDonald's ice cream cones (thank you, hyperemesis). I was probably going through the drive through at least every other day and I am pretty sure I was the only person in town ordering ice cream cones while it was snowing outside. My doctor just kind of laughed it off as carbs and calcium...

    This time I could eat pho (Vietnamese noodle soup) for breakfast, lunch and dinner. That or Jersey Mikes subs. Luckily these are way healthier than McDonalds.
  • My unhealthy thing right now is orange soda ....I am soooo trying to limit how much I drink so I keep it to only on Mondays when I do my other bad thing which is burgerking a whopper with tons of pickles no onions!!!!! Oommannnnnn that's my only bad food or snack and only on Mondays!

    My husband randomly bought a case of orange soda. I probably haven't had one for 20 years or more. Well, I had a sip of his and it created a monster! I try to limit myself to maybe 2 a week or so, but they just taste soooo good to me. I should have never taken that first sip!

  • ICE CREAM!!! my arch nemesis! I love healthy food but I've had ice cream for dinner a few times. No shame!
  • My splurge is almost always ice cream. I've been making small batches so that I can't eat a whole bunch in one sitting. I also somehow convince myself that making it at home makes it healthier and therefore justifies eating it as often as I do. 
  • I've been enjoying a lot if milkshakes. Oreo flavor specifically. There's a shop by me that makes the best ones. They crumble up a pack of oreos and pour them right into the shake. Although I've also found plenty of other places to get a shake when the mood strikes!
  • I live in a small town with very limited fast food options. I went to the big city yesterday and had Mcdonalds. I swear I was the happiest person in the whole restaurant. It was busy and crowded, with harried moms and grouchy construction workers trying to find places to sit. Meanwhile, I was smiling like an angel in heaven while I chomped down my fries. Mmmmmmmmm....
  • I had Taco Bell for lunch today :) for awhile there I was getting it almost every Saturday. .. fortunately that has tapered off, though!
  • Went to Pizza Hut, ordered a side of buffalo wings (8 per order) and an order of breadsticks (5per order), and ate everything... by myself.
