Foods survey: where is your favorite place to get.. Jun 14 2009
00:01 (UTC)

hamburger: McDonalds. A single cheeseburger as is.

fries: McDonalds. Or possibly checkers

onion rings: not really a fan, so I'm not picky

ice cream: Where else? Ben and Jerry's!

baked goods: I love the cookies at my college cafeteria. Surprisingly enough

chicken wings: Anchor Bar in Buffalo, where the original wings come from. Seriously if you're a wing fan you should make the trip.

poutine: ew. NOWHERE so gross

pizza: Anyplace that serves up nice huge thin slices of New York pizza that you can fold over. Especially white pizza with either spinach or broccoli

chinese food: Asia Cafe in Chapel Hill. Jeez louis the place is sketch ball as heck. But their sesame chicken is excellent.

italian food: OMG there's this little place near the University of Illinois in Chicago. I can't remember if it's called Sicily or Little Sicily or whatever. But it's on the same street as this little Italian Ice place. Their Italian food is the best you'll ever have. The place was full of locals we were probably the only tourists there. It was amazing. The waiters were nice and polite and didn't treat us like tourists they treated us like family. I myself didn't know what to order but when I went to the bathroom I saw some waiters carrying like thirty platefuls of this delicious looking pasta dish with creamy light light red sauce to a back room. When it came time to order I asked the waiter what it was and he said that it was a special dish they made for a graduation party going on but they let me order it anyway and they didn't even charge me an arm and a leg for it.
Sorry I know that was really long but I couldn't help gushing.

turkey sandwich: Shortstop Deli in Ithaca NY. I love this place so so much.

caesar salad: Not a fan so no preference.

milkshake: Cookout. Their food is awful but they have like fifty or more types of milkshake. Yum yum yum

taco: I'm a burrito girl. And I love Taco Bell's bean burritos.

doughnut: Probably krispy kreme. I can't even eat a whole one though.

bagel: Collegetown bagels in Ithaca. They're amazing. 

cinnamon roll: Probably just the ones from pillsbury.

So not quite at the same point as you. I just finished up my first year, but I too am trying to recover from the ten pounds I gained this year (and the weight I'd accumulated before that... haha). Hope that's alright that I'm not exactly a rising freshman.

But I'm also trying to revamp my eating habits for a healthier lifestyle.

Some stats about me:
Age: 19
Weight: 195
Height: 5'4"
School: University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, basketball champs 2009!

haha

Alright, at the risk of sounding like a total bSealedch, I'm just going to put it out there.

  1. I would like to remind everyone gushing about how good looking she is, she is an UNDERAGE girl posing in her UNDERPANTS. I'm only a few years older but dang people get it together.
  2. And aaaaaaaaaalso, please jessiika, on a forum that has quite a lot of people that are trying to lose significant weight, don't you think it's a bit cruel to come here fishing for compliments?
  3. A stone already?  For those of you who don't understand what a stone is or simply don't know how to use google, a stone is 14 pounds. So you complain that weight loss is so hard, but you've already lost 14? I really don't advise weighing less that 8 stone (112) really.
  4. Plus at 8 stone your hips will only look more prominent dear. So if you're really truly looking for a different body. Please look less towards weight loss and more towards toning your body IF YOU MUST. So skip tons of cardio and super restrictive diets and more towards weights.
  5. But seriously jessiika dear, please watch where you post the panty photos will you? That could certainly hurt you in the trying to get a boyfriend department.

There honesty. Sorry if it was brutal or anything.

I always without fail get the same thing.

Footlong Turkey no cheese on Wheat (or plain White when I'm ordering at the little rinky dink Subway near the dorms that doesn't seem to have all of the breads... sad day) with lettuce, spinach, pickles, cucumbers, carrots, loads of banana peppers (I always have to ask for more, sometimes four or five times), and to top it off
Mustard and that Southwest Sauce.

Then I promptly eat half as soon as possible and then the other half later.

favorite fruit: Pineapple, pineapple, pineapple. I've eaten entire pineapples in a day before! Usually with nothing else though, haha.

favorite vegetable: Definitely cooked broccoli. Love me some broccoli dinners. Sadly and ironically, my mother is highly allergic, so no brocolli for me sadly.

favorite grain source: Rice.

favorite meat/meat alternative source: Chik-Fil-A nuggets. And shockingly for fried chicken it doesn't make to big of a dent on my calorie counting. For example if I went CRAZY and had 12 nuggets it's only 390 calories. But an 8 count at 260 is usually quite enough for me. Plus their buffalo sauce at 15 calories makes this choice for buffalo wings almost sinfully cheating.

favorite dairy product: Vanilla Yogurt

favorite hot drink: I'm not really a fan of hot drinks. But have been known to be okay with luke warm hot chocolate. Wow that sounds like an oxymoron

favorite cold drink: Ice ice cold water. With a squeeze of lemon even.

when was the last time you ate fast food? what did you order?: On Sunday I foolishly got a Volcano Burrito from Taco Bell. THANK HEAVENS I ordered it with beans instead of the Double Beef if comes with. Because that would have made it 800 calories. Jesus. Luckily with the Taco Bell website it let's you customize their nutritional info.
AND just for anyone reading. Be careful with the Taco Bell nutritional info on this website. Because some of them don't have the full serving you're going to eat. For some reason a full serving is often not a whole burrito.

what's one old favorite you've had recently and found that it didn't taste as good as you remembered?: Milk, it's just not doing for me anymore really. I used to drink whole glasses and now I'm really just satisfied with a couple of sips, and really only after certain foods.
Also cranberry juice. I have to water it down a ton to make it good again. I can't believe I drank that syrupy stuff before.

name 3 healthy/diet foods you're really into right now:
Cucumbers, I'll just eat them straight without even cutting them up. It's awesome.
Corn on the Cob, light on the butter. But admittedly a little heavy on the salt.
Salad, I make my own with romaine lettuce, a couple of pickles, a ton of banana peppers. Then for dressing I use a combination of italian dressing and the juice in the pepper jar. Pretty awesome way to use less dressing.

name 3 healthy/diet foods you're really sick of right now:
Baby Carrots, they're getting old on me a little quick.
And that's all for now. I've really not been eating diet food per se. I've been more eating what I want but following calories very closely and eating accordingly.
Because I'm not trying to diet, I'm trying to make a lifestyle change. :)

least favorite fruit: Mushy or warm bananas.

least favorite vegetable: Cooked carrots, cooked spinach, cooked cauliflower.

least favorite grain source: I suppose wheat thins are not high on my favorites. But I looooooooove carbs, haha.

least favorite meat/meat alternative source: Pork. I do not eat pork.

least favorite dairy product: I agree with the original poster. I am not a cottage cheese fan.

least favorite hot drink: I don't really like hot liquid as a rule. So all of them. Although I'm really trying to like black coffee now.

least favorite cold drink: Iced Tea. BLAAAAARGH. I live in the south and have not and never will acquire a taste for it.

what's your favorite winter treat?: Pumpkin pie. But I don't really eat different in the winter. Or candy canes. Yum

what's your favorite summer treat?: All of the awesome fruits that are in season.
But also my mom's awesome potato and macaroni salads. She makes them all of the time in the summer.

what do you like chocolate best with?: peanut butter. Reeses cuuuuuuuuuups. Are. Awesome.

what do you like peanut butter best with?: Chocolate, see above. But also I just love smucker's all natural peanut butter by itself.

what's your favorite fruit to use in jam?: I've never really liked jams or jellies. That's right, as a child I did not like PB&Js. I have been okay with grape jams though.

what's your favorite flavour/kind/brand of diet soda (assuming you drink it)?: I suppose diet mt dew. But when I drink soda I usually just drink soda. And in those cases when I budget in some soda, it's Taco Bell's Baja Blast Mt. Dew.

what do you add to your coffee?: Usually two packets of that Natural Grain Sugar.

what do you add to your tea?: Well I only occasional drink it. But it's usually green tea with two or three packets of that natural grain sugar again.

do you eat breakfast every morning?: I always end up eating something in the morning or whenver I wake up.

what's your favorite thing to eat for breakfast?: Well, I hate almost all breakfast foods, so it's not your usual breakfast. But my favorite is hummus and pita with some egg whites.

what's your favorite thing to eat for lunch?: Oh my goodness those Chick-Fil-A nuggets and a baked potato. I'll just go to Chick-Fil-A and then Wendy's for the baked potato. Hello drive thru convenience.
But when I'm at home it's got to be kraft mac&cheese with a chicken hot dog cut up in it.

what's your favorite thing to eat for dinner?: Sesame Chicken, oh my goodness, deeeeeeeeelicious.
But at home it'd have to be the Strogannoff Hamburger Helper.

what's your favorite flavour of icecream?: Moosetracks

do you prefer chocolate, or white milk?: White Milk. I hate chocolate milk

what's your favorite flavour/brand/kind of 100-calorie pack?: The Cheese Chex. I love it so much. I really wish they made Cheese Chex in large bags. I'm not a big fan of all of the stuff in chex mix, so that would be awesome.

do you drink water plain, or do you add things to it (lemon slice, sweetner, crystal light, etc)?: I definitely drink water plain. But sometimes I will just put a little lemon juice in it.

what's your favorite salty snack?: I luuuurve popcorn so much. I've eaten popcorn meals before. Will definitely do it again.

what's your favorite kind of nut?: Cashews. Then maybe almonds.

what's your favorite flavour/brand/kind of chewing gum?: Winterfresh.

do you prefer white, dark, or milk chocolate the most?: Dark chocolate for sure.

what food do you remember most from your childhood? do you still eat it now?: Haha those cookies listed above. And I'd love to eat them again.

name 1 "weird" food you like to eat: I put hot sauce on tons of things. For instance when I eat bagels I'll put peanut butter on it and then dip it in hot sauce. People have definitely expressed how weird that is before.

what's your favorite type of cuisine (canadian/american, italian, chinese, indian, etc)?: Japanese. Give me some hibachi chicken with fried rice and shrimp sauce aaaaaaaaany day please. Close second would be Middle Eastern Food. Being an Arabic major is pretty awesome.

what's your favoite condiment?: Texas Pete pleeeeeeeease.

what's your favorite kind of cheese?: Cheddar.

what about your least favorite kind of cheese?: Blue

I love big noses. I guess you could say an aquiline nose, but really truly I like prominent noses.

This has lead my roommate to say that I have a thing for "ethnic" men. Haha, not my fault that many Middle Eastern, Indian, and often times Jewish men have these noses.

Haha swear that's not my intention. But whatever I like what I like. To tell you the truth the nose is a really prominent part of the face so I don't really understand why so many people think my preference is so weird.

And then on the other side of this spectrum is the pudgy funny man a la Jack Black and Seth Rogen.

haha glad to know that other people think that their preferences are weird too.
