FAT TUESDAY tomorrow! What are your food indulgences?

Any time I get a chance to have an excuse to indulge is a good day!

What will you sneak in, blame on Fat Tuesday, and then maybe give up until Easter?

 

Re: FAT TUESDAY tomorrow! What are your food indulgences?

  • I think the entire pack of oreos I impulse bought yesterday and the half of a cheese pizza I ate for dinner were quite enough...for the year.
  • I made a couple dozen King Cupcakes to take into work tomorrow.  I'm going to attempt to give up soda this year, so I'll probobly pound a few tomorrow LOL.

  • I may pick up a donut with my morning coffee @ Tim Horton's :)
  • I'm giving up tequila. I plan on making a big batch of grapefruit margaritas tomorrow night for Bunco... And then that will be it.

    I'm a little scared.

    Now I see why you pinned the vodka gimlets...  ;)

  • I'm definitely going out to lunch somewhere, because I'm giving up fast food/restaurants. I think I'm going to give up sugary drinks too - so I'll get a nice large coke to wash down my meal.

  • I have a love of cheeze-its that is a little out of control.  I realize I am eating processed crap....but I love them.  No more cheeze-its (at least for 4 weeks) starting Wednesday.

    Just in case you need to change your mind!!

  • Fat Tuesday also happens to be my birthday this year... major indulgence day!

    We're going to Cailler chocolate factory for a chocolate making class and then to the town of Gruy?res (where the cheese is from...) for a fondue and some traditional double cr?me de la Gruy?res. And I have cupcakes for tonight. It's going to be epic. Calories don't count on your birthday/fat tuesday right?

    I thought about that, but...no, I can't. I'm giving up candy.

    Yeah, it's tough but worth it. It's an unfortunate reminder of how addicted I've become to sweets, because I always lose a ridiculous amount of weight during Lent, simply because I've cut sugar out of my diet. Candy is a great start, though! Good luck!

    I know its six weeks, butI figure its easier to tell myself only a month.....after that hopefully two more weeks won't be too tough!
