yes, I've lost 5 stone since my son was born 3 years ago, a weekend of eating chocolate is not going to make me put all that back on! you didn't answer my question about your weight as you seem to be so interested in mine

Oh shut up everyone!
Good for you OP, i could probably manage that too. I have eaten 12 in one sitting and my OH was shocked.

I dont drink, smoke, take drugs like yourself OP but i most certainely can eat my own body weight in chocolate (10 stone) mmmm Smile off to the shop!

amillionyears · 10/02/2013 21:21

I dont know anything bout 5:2, but if that it is what it is about, that does not sound healthy for your body.

[I will now go and google 5:2]

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 21:21

knitted that's exactly why I posted, wish I'd never bloody bothered

Me too milkymocha!! I love my food. I am 10st too and also size 10/12 and i admit i can be a proper pig at times!!!!! too many people are judgmental on here!

squeakytoy · 10/02/2013 21:23

My weight is fine. I was overweight, and I lost the weight, and I have kept it off. I eat regular meals every day, I eat whatever I like, just not in gargantuan quantities.

Even at my heaviest weight I could not even contemplate the thought of eating so much in two days. My gain was due to lack of exercise rather than being a pig.

It is your attitude towards what you have eaten that shocks me. Most people would feel disgusted with themselves for such greed, not proud.

PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 21:23

There is telling her she is BU and people going on about eating disorders.

If someone is going to eat their own bodyweight in creme eggs as a one off one weekend I really cant get worked up over it.

benbobaggins · 10/02/2013 21:24

It must be the squaddie in me, you would be horrified if you knew what eating competitions we used to have!

Unreasonable and rather horrid.

Creme eggs are little more than flavoured lard, yuck.

Perhaps try real and delicious chocolate and you wouldn't feel the need to behave like one of the people I see on Jackass.

Not very elegant behaviour, really.

KnittedCharacter · 10/02/2013 21:25

Ignore the opinionated ones OP!! Bet if one of their friends in RL had told them that face to face they would laugh. Doubt they would hark on suggesting their friend had an eating disorder!

amillionyears · 10/02/2013 21:27

Had a brief look at 5:2
From what I can see, it is wating normally for 5 days a week and fasting for 2.
Not sure where all the creme eggs come into that.

kickassmomma · 10/02/2013 21:27

Squeaky in all honesty you shouldn't judge! Her life she does what she wants! You sound a bit like a snob but no ones guna moan at u constantly! U strike me as one of those people who would go round tutting and grumbling at someone who looked drunk or scruffy! A bit too judgmental! Shame there's those few mnetters that ruin light hearted threads!

PickledInAPearTree · 10/02/2013 21:28

They dont A Million. Its not part of the diet that you eat 48 creme eggs in a weekend.

milkymocha · 10/02/2013 21:28

Kudos to you OP, we should have a creme egg eat off. Knitted can join in too... I'll eat you under the table if its Twirls even though they give me toothache Grin

usualsuspect · 10/02/2013 21:29

Not cool to bring up someones posting history,seriously why the fuck would you be bothered just to prove a point.

permaquandry · 10/02/2013 21:30

I'm off for a snickers am sulking because I really, really want a cream egg now

squeakytoy · 10/02/2013 21:30

haha... so an opinion that doesnt congratulate the OP is "judging"..

Grin
juneybean · 10/02/2013 21:30

I'm partial to a binge sometimes, people seem to think you're doing this every weekend, yeah I'm sure your body is hating you but who cares fgs bet you enjoyed every one of them

LeaveTheBastid · 10/02/2013 21:30

I would actually knitted. It's really quite disgusting behaviour, even as a one off. 48 creme eggs, 9000 calories not including usual meals. It's not something to brag about at all and I feel that laughing about it would only encourage some people who do have genuine eating disorders that include extreme bingeing. Its actually quite worrying that her body seems to accept such a huge sudden increase in sugar/calories with no ill effects whatsover. It's nothing to be proud of in my opinion.

WorraLiberty · 10/02/2013 21:31

Ok so the OP has recently needed to lose 5 stone

She's on a fasting/eating normally diet right now.

She's binged on 48 creme eggs this weekend

And it's unreasonable for someone to think there's a teensy chance she may have an eating disorder?

Really?

And given the fact the OP has said she would also allow her child to also binge on 48 creme eggs, it does not make her look as though she views food in a particularly healthy way...and certainly doesn't get the concept of a 'treat'.

I have no idea whether she has a disorder or not...but I'm very surprised that squeaky or anyone else would be jumped on for suggesting it.

kickassmomma · 10/02/2013 21:31

No but when you obsessing go on yes! Give your opinion and leave don't keep going on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on..........Smile
