Hmm, haven't seen weight watchers one. don't you have some days where your just "screw it! i'm gona eat whatever" =]

My diet is kind of crazy.

I eat lots of whole grains and vegetables, but I also love chocolate, anything fried, and bread. Some days my diet will consist of oatmeal, fruit, brown rice, roasted vegetables, tons of water and unsweetened tea. Other days it might be full of bagels, cupcakes, rich pasta dishes, burritos and french fries.

I'm trying to swing back toward the former.

Oh sure, but never all day... Usually one night a week I have really bad stuff! Like tonite, my hubby is making his awesome hot wings! Iim gonna eat the crap outta them!

If you only allow yourself one day a week to eat what you love for one meal, eating right the rest of the time isnt hard cuz you know you have that to look forward to...

Oh.... I do have a donut on sunday morning!

i should try that I mean, i don't need to lose weight , i have a fast metabolism and am very skinny but I just wanna feel healthier =]

I think good eating also makes a person look and feel younger...

breakfast - donut & coffee (either I worship Homer or it's as close as I can get to being a cop...)

lunch - pizza slice or burger with a salad (my attempt at healthy eating)

dinner - a protein, a carb and a veggie (one serving each)

I hate fried/greasy foods. But love rich foods like premium icecream, chocolate, steak, rice, cheeses, seafood, pasta

I love all that stuff (minus the steak), including all the breadstuff you listed, AND I love fried and greasy foods!

I also need to buy stock in a company called Entamins.

I can wipe out an entire marble pound cake in a few hours by myself. Add coffee and its ON!

See, that's where I mess up... I'm a coffee (espresso -cafe con leche) type with a pastry on the side... I do it twice daily. Sad!

Oh, and did I mention I have THREE danmed Dunkin' Donuts within 5-8 minutes walking distance from my front door? I can eat 3 donuts and coffee in ONE sitting. I need prayer.

I can eat steak daily.... especially prime rib! OMG!! Or shaved steak sandwiches with tons of melted American grilled oinions and mushroom. I'm hungry now....

I think it's a good thing I can't have coffee anymore; I was exactly like this! It was like alcohol and cigarettes are for other people - the pastry/cake would make me want more coffee, and vice versa.

I think steak tastes very good, but I eat meat extremely rarely - and even then it's usually a bite or two.

Bad. You don't want to know.

Breakfast:Either Turkish style if I´m not in a hurry or German style when I´m in a hurry.

Turkish=> black tea, feta cheese, tomatoes, cucumber, black olives, marinated green olives, lots of olive oil sprinkled with paprika flakes, sometimes a boiled egg, sometimes sucuk, pita bread or simit(some kind of a bagel), sometimes tahin with pekmez, honey, and maybe one or two cups of strong Turkish coffee later ( NOT with the breakfast but as a chaser)

German style is usually a cup of good,strong German coffee, rolls or toast with jam, cheese, smoked chicken breast, chocolate spread and a boiled egg. But I also love to add some peanut butter.

In general, I usually eat a lot of vegetables, homemade soups, lots of tangerines, oranges, pomegrenates, apples, plain yoghurt, peanuts, pistachios, pumpkin seeds, lots of olive oil, pasta in moderate amounts, lots of organic oatmeal, oat muesli without wheat, lots of cottage cheese, fish, squid, mussels, shrimps, sometimes a protein shake, and always a whey protein shake right after a workout. I also like avocados, sun dried tomatoes and tons of black tea and coffee but also rose hips tea or hot cocoa (organic, without added sugar....I add only a little bit of sugar to it).

I used to be a vegetarian from 1999-2004 and I´m thinking about going back to that lifestyle again or at least drastically reduce my meat consumption ( I rarely eat it anyway).

Oh, and I love sweet potatoes, broccoli, spinach and bulgur with yoghurt. And salads.

French fries are my guilty pleasure...that´s why I avoid them and only eat them maybe two or three times a month when I go to my favorite fish and chips place. Other than that, I eat fried stuff very rarely. Never , actually.
