To feel disgusted with myself for just doing this

365 replies

Went to a drive through before, ordered my Dd a happy meal and myself a Big Mac, Mcchicken sandwich, cheeseburger and coke. No idea why, just always wanted to order my favourite things and not do the meal thing. Generally always with Dh and would feel kind a pig in front of him.
I barely ever drink Coke either, literally only when I have a mcds or pizza, which doesn’t sound like it by this thread, but is pretty rare!
Whyyyyy 🙈it wasn’t even that bloody good, not like I imagined it 😫

I went yesterday
Had a quarter pounder meal, a portion of cheese bites and a festive pie
Was lovely, and my only meal for the day

To the people shocked at the amount of calories consumed by the OP, it's about the equivalent of 2 slices of Domino's medium sized stuffed crust Buffalo chicken pizza. How many would be up in arms if the OP had stated that she was disgusted with herself for eating 2 slices of pizza??

I would never order a burger AND chips in McDonald's, certainly not multiple burgers. In fact the very occasional time I order there I get six chicken nuggets with carrots or a fruit bag.

I am completely obsessed with how much I eat and my calorific and protein intake.

Guess what - I'm obese.

Good on ya op.

Or rib eye dish in Cote Brasserie 😁
God forbid someone dares to have a starter!

Actually 1 Cote burger is like 3 maccies ones😳

1300/1400 calories on 2 slices of pizza? I don’t care what others eat but that seems a lot of calories on 2 slices. The takeaway pizza we have is about half that. Maybe it’s the stuffed crust? Seems a lot.

No judgement from me OP, eat what you like! But how did you manage to fit all that in your stomach at once?!

Fgs stop counting the calories.its a meal.tou don't always need to feel a certain way depending on the calories.
She could have 3 plates of tuna salad,huge piled high.and someone else a need stir fry.but because the salad person was less calories...no! There is more to food,meals,life,joy than how we should feel being dependant on it number.
We don't need to compare it to a pizza or a nandos.and deem it ok or not.
It was ok.in life there will be days of having more or less.of having green or beige foods.high fat and low.chaning how we accept thembased slyly on number is disordered.not allowingbyourelf to feel full of 3 Maccies without 15 pages of food guilt is disordered.
Making anyone feel shit about a meal is disordered.
2022 food and people fucking disordered.
Mumsnet and food -disordered

For goodness sake, who would eat domino's? Just walk past and sniff, that should be sufficient for you!

Don't get why anyone would order (or even want) three meals - no wonder the country has an obesity crisis.......

Sorry - I don't know what 'bumping it' is, but I do agree MN has started showing me loads of messages I'm not interested in, on threads I watched ages ago. It never used to happen. Need to up my tech skills....Grin
