Man v. Food

My husband and I both share a strong love for food.  We love to cook, eat, and watch Food Network and other cooking shows....  I must say I can usually watch all the cooking shows without getting too terribly tempted, but there is one show that makes me seriously crave things.

Man v. Food on the Travel Channel.

This show is bad news.  I have watched this show, craved the food, and left my house to find something similar.  Sad thing is, my husband was no help in stopping me.... He gets sucked into the show too!  Pizza, wings, bbq, burritos...NOTHING that is healthy.  Gets me wanting to cheat everytime....

Speaking of cheating...I've been tempted all day.  I think it's just one of those days.  I've stuck to my guns and done well, regardless of my multiple thoughts on greasy cheeseburgers and warm, chewy brownies....

Until next time...

Food that makes me FAT

Mexican food.

I seriously have a LOVE for Mexican food. (Well, let's be honest...ALL food). I love the flavors, cheese, textures...everything. If I knew I was going to die tomorrow, there is no question what my last meal would be.

Supreme Nachos w/ Chicken.

I'm salivating just from the thought of Nachos.

I've realized that I can't even try to eat Mexican food while dieting... I know there are some people who diet and don't believe in "depriving" yourself of certain foods, but this is one food that I can't control!

I don't think I am capable of physically going to a Mexican restaurant and consuming less than 2,000 calories. Sad, but true. I love all the bad things about Mexican... (cheese, sour cream, guacamole, cheese, chips, did I say cheese?).

Other foods I can eat in moderation, but I've accepted my long-term hiatus from Mexican. Maybe one day I will be able to control my portions...until then I try to only eat it once every 3 months.

What's your "fat" food?
