Dairy milk doesn't suck and neither does soy milk. I consume dairy and soy products interchangeably, depending on my mood because I like the taste of both. However when I'm surrounded by vegans that lecture on the evils of dairy I choose dairy because it's irritating to hear of why we shouldn't take advantage of being the only intelligent animals. |

| Health & Support | What's the Difference between BED and just Eating a lot | Mar 24 2008 20:36 (UTC) |

| BED is a compulsion to eat. You just seem to like eating junk food. You might want to try and make your diet more nutritious but otherwise it doesn't sound like you have any kind of bingeing problem. | |||

| Easter is a lovely holiday, whether you're religious or not. If you're not religious just be quiet and enjoy the chocolate :) | |||

She probably tells you to eat more but you ignore her. Either way, you won't gain weight. You won't gain even an ounce of fat. |

| 1336 calories on a bad day. It's offensive to call that a binge. | |||

"THEN WHY EVEN SPEND THE MONEY AND TIME TO MAKE THEM IN THE
FIRST PLACE IF NO ONE IS GOING TO USE THEM AS FOOD?? Oh ok, lets spend
$30 on ingredients to make these nice cookies just so we can throw them
in the garbage! YAY!" Sometimes people bake simply because it's relaxing and a nice activity to do with friends/family. A person doesn't have to bake goods when they could buy them at the supermarket for the same cost or cheaper but they choose to because they enjoy the process. |

I eat around 80 grams of sugar from
fruit every day. I've tried to cut back but I love fruit too much and
it doesn't seem to adversely affect me so I don't worry about it. You could try eating more of the fruits lower in sugar such as berries, pears, melons, grapefruit. Bananas, grapes, mango, kiwi, oranges, pineapple are among those high in sugar. |

It's fine to have a few treats on special occasions. The only concern
would be that you're going to overdo it by eating rolls, cake, cinnamon
buns and stuff all at once along
with a large dinner. Maybe you could choose between the cake, rolls and
cinnamon buns and then have whatever you've chosen with a scoop of
icecream? You won't truly appreciate the taste if you're too full.. I had vegemite toast and a hot cross bun for breakfast, lunch is roast lamb and veggies, and following that I'll have someone light and sweet like some fruit.. Easter for me is more about the wholesome family meal than chocolate and pastries. |

| Foods | what are you cooking for Easter? | Mar 22 2008 23:51 (UTC) |

| Roast lamb with pumpkin, potatoes, peas, carrots, broccoli, brussel sprouts and gravy for lunch. It's just a typical Sunday roast but it will be so warm and comforting seeing as it's such a cold miserable day. | |||

It's difficult to say because everyone has their own definition for
veganism. Some people say it's just no animal products like eggs, meat,
seafood, dairy, gelatin etc. but then others say the bees
get harmed in production of honey and bugs get killed in wine-making
yada yada.. eventually you reach a point where it's ridiculous and you have to sweep the ground in front of you before you take a step so that you don't harm any insects like in jainism.. Bottom line is- no one is ever going to agree on the definition of veganism. I'd consider you vegan but other's won't. |

| You could even ring them up beforehand and ask if they have any alternatives to pasta. That way you'll know for sure how accomodating they are. | |||

| Well it is the spaghetti factory.. what do you expect? I'm sure they'd be able to manage steamed veggies and a piece of meat anyway but otherwise, go to a different place? | |||

"What on EARTH? I'm sorry, but somehow I doubt a starving person cares
if the food they're eating has 1500 calories or 3. Simiarly, I doubt
they ponder the difference between a McDonald's happy meal or a
selection of gourmet food when it lies in their lap. "It's better off
in the bin than making you and others around you fat"? I mean,
honestly. I'm trying, really trying, to wrap my head around this
statement, but it's feeling a little impossible. I don't think
maintaining a healthy diet is going to be the first thing on my mind,
should I ever experience starvation. I'm not going to go "HEY, YOU, HOW
MANY CALORIES ARE IN THIS THING?" when someone finally throws me a
sandwich." WHERE did I say anything about a starving person caring about calories? I get it; starving people want food. BUT this girl and her family and friends are not starving. They have an abundance of food, therefore when they have the choice between healthy food and non-nutritious junk they have NO REASON TO EAT JUNK. "It's better off in the bin than making you and others around you fat" By this I was saying that UNLESS YOU'RE GOING TO GIVE IT TO THE DEPRIVED STARVING POOR PEOPLE you shouldn't be giving it to the likely obese and overweight friends & relatives surrounding you who already eat a lot and probably have no will power. It's common on calorie-count for people to pawn the food they don't deem good/nutritious enough for them to eat on others, but I don't believe that's right. |

| Yes, it's sad to realise that even "healthy" things have calories and even more sad to realise that those foods/drink you once thought were healthy are actually not. | |||
