Ditto Melly.

@Mau - um...that's pretty presumptuous to say that someone has an eating disorder or that they're starving themselve just b/c they went to the pasta bar and wished they hadn't. miss_em2010 simply vented for fun and frustration - I'm pretty d*mn sure she doesn't have an eating disorder.

lol....thanks girls...no, I definitely don't have an eating disorder (ironic that I am typing this seeing as I am stuffing my face with fish and chips...lol).

Nor am I starving or banning food.

And I am fully educated on how to eat healthily.

Just as some ppl are comfortable with being overweight, I am comfortable being the weight I am, and that means maintaining it. Not that I am a size 0 but I'm not interested in gaining 20 plus pounds. Therefore, when I make a solid attempt to lose some of the gain I had over the past month or so, I am mad at myself for not being disciplined enough to choose a less healthy option over something that would be equally satisfying but maybe not *quite* as delicious as pasta. it's not feeling guilty about food...it's guilty about not sticking with my own plan....the difference is at opposite ends of the spectrum.

It's not really that big of a deal mau....lol!! i'm fine.

No I said that if you connect food with quilt, that the start and if you keep adding the quilt you will end up with problem.

I am just so tired that food,  is such a quilt ridden topic, people   are scared of everything.

Mind you all, I been an OP  on a few food forums, I have teached people how to cook and I seen people  cry cause the had a  banana cause t o much fat.

I also gotten asked how much calories water has.

But that's nothing like what miss_em said.  She didn't freak out over the calories in a banana or water.  She just said she frustrated with herself because she overindulged at a pasta bar.  I think that's a pretty normal comment, not a red flag of an eating disorder.

Mau - I think you need to stop imposing your own issues on someone else. This is the vent vault - miss_em can vent ALL she friggen wants about pasta! And for the record -it's Guilt, not quilt.
