My SO grew up vegetarian, but he's ok if I eat meat. I am an engineer that helps companies design food production facilities (i.e. mass production of cereal or beer or wherever). I "know too much" about how food is made and have basically moved to a vegetarian diet as well. The past few weeks, I have not been following that. This week, I ate chicken for the first time since January and I've gotten the New York Steamer at Firehouse Subs. Twice. And I have a lovely garden in my backyard that I've eaten basically nothing from this whole summer. My SO said that I should at least force down something healthy, but I just can't.
I've had little to no vegetables all week.... I've been carb and fruit loading. Thankfully I'm not as ravenous as I was so I'm still not gaining weight from my terrible eating habits. (Over weight to start and still carrying 15 extra lbs from having my son in April)
I was reading the TTGP FFFC thread and it reminded me of this story: back in high school the internet was just starting to be a big thing (around 1996/7 this happened). My friends and I discovered online porn and my one friend would randomly email us the "gross" pictures. So one day another friend says "[Friend] has somehow figured out how to get those dirty photos to show up in the recent documents list on my home computer and I can't figure out how to erase them!" Later I realized that it wasn't our friend doing that, obviously; it was her dad looking at porn!
So FFFC may be that my friends and I were so incredibly naive in high school.

This happened to my bff on her home computer back in the day as well!!!!

Ditto on the veggies. I tried to eat some green beans on Monday but stuck with the potatoes instead. I'm still holding steady on my weight so far, but I have got to start eating more balanced meals!
@julievdm12 & @clc515 me three on the veggies!!! I'm finishing up week 13 and it was baaaad. Sleeping terrible, vomiting back with a vengeance, irritable to the point I think those around me are getting me an exorcist. And I've only eaten junk! Worked out once, and I've been so consistent until this point! Ugh.
I have Diverticulosis and am supposed to maintain a pretty low card diet to avoid flareups. Well I pretty much only feel like eating carbs and fruit (like most of y'all) my FFFC is that I haven't really been having flare ups but I might be really overexagerating so DH will let me lay in bed to "feel better"
I'm with the rest of you about the veggies. I have to force myself to eat them. I'll eat carbs and fruit all day, but something about even the veggies I like makes me want to gag.
I may have blown up at the Burger King drive thru over the following conversation:
Woman at window: Which diet drink did you want? Me: None I wanted iced tea. Her: What? Me (louder and slower): Iced...Tea Her: We don't have Moutain Dew. Me: What? No I said ICED TEA. Her: (Looks perplexed): You want a diet what? Me: (Seriously irritated): ICED TEA! I WANT ICED TEA? Her: Cold tea right? Not hot? Me: Seriously? You don't know what iced tea is? Her: Oh! ICED tea!
I seriously about hit the roof. If this was over the speaker that's one thing but this was face to face with her leaning out the window and me leaving out the car, both of us looking directly at eachother. And she was not ESL either, which I could have understood. I wonder if she was just deliberately fucking with me because how else do you hear Moutain Dew out of Iced tea?

I keep eating crackers and cheese or pretzels and dip while making my families dinner and I'm to full to eat said dinner by the time it's done cooking. I've done this all week long! Doh!
I am currently irrationally upset that I spilled nail polish on my favorite sheets trying to paint my toenails. Rational me says it's not that big of a spill and it's on dark sheets so it's not super obvious. But they are my favorite!
@seitzy3 Me too! I can't cook anymore since I've been pregnant, I'm too lazy and certain foods are gross to me atm! I cooked yesterday for the first time in a while and it turned out so yummy then I tasted the chicken and it was chewy....chewy chicken what the hell!!!! So I had to bin it and order in before DH got home
I've lost count of how many nights this week I've eaten cereal for dinner. Luckily my SO has taken over the cooking for himself and DS since the smell of most foods make me gag. I'm hoping this will pass soon, I normally enjoy cooking.
@olitwinturbosnprincess Same here with the garden! I worked so hard on it this spring and I haven't been able to eat anything from it other than carrots until the past week. For some reason carrots haven't set off my food aversions like every single other vegetable has.
I spent the entire month of July and first week of August living off drive-thrus and takeout. Thankfully my nausea is slowly starting to go away.

I have cereal at least once a day because it's the least disturbing thing for my tummy besides bagels and cream cheese. I made spaghetti and garlic bread last night knowing it'd probably set off my heartburn, but I don't regret it haha.
Re: FFFC* 8/11
And I hate the two lane order system bc there are always douchbags that jump the line.
That was cathartic.
Thankfully I'm not as ravenous as I was so I'm still not gaining weight from my terrible eating habits. (Over weight to start and still carrying 15 extra lbs from having my son in April)
So FFFC may be that my friends and I were so incredibly naive in high school.

I've left my puppy outside in the yard for far too long. I just can't deal with chasing her around the house right now
