Strangest binges...

Not sure this counts, but i just sat down and ate all the blueberries I had (unopened container)....seems weird for a bit of a binge, but i could do worse than fruit...

anyone got weirder/more random?

I've got stock piles of brownies, candy, and cookies in my apartment, and somehow, I can't seem to put down the bran flakes.

Mine is similar to yours except in scale.  When I went home last weekend I discovered that u-pick cherries were only .75/pound.  So I bought ... 18 pounds.  Don't ask why, they just looked too good.  So I've been eating, I don't know, three pounds of cherries a day since Sunday?

i know, sometimes ill have all kinds of junk food around, but ill only go for the cereal time and time again. I LOVE cereal.

one time i ALMOST binged on those graham cracker crusts that you use for like a banana cream pie. JUST THE CRUST! i started to open it and actually stopped myself and was like, what are you doing?  i forget what i ate instead, but knowing me, it was probably a jar of PB.

damn PB... gets me everytime!

haha, yes. today, I binged on 400 calories worth of raisins. I didn't even know I liked raisins.

PB is my major weakness too

ok about the cherries - WTF? did you have any issues in the bathroom? 3lbs each day?

Nope, no bathroom issues.  I'm pretty used to about 70g of fiber a day.  They have given me a little stomach ache though.  ;-)

I could eat bananas til i pass out...

And special K- forget about it, I decided to ban it from my house after last night's production- I literally ate 1/2 the box dry, by the handfull! Yikes!

Cashews, Rice Pudding, Cottage Cheese.

I'm not allowed to have any of these in the house or they'll be gone before I can even blink.

I'm also a huge cherry and grape whore, but my stomach gets the better of me before my calorie count can with those.

I get that same cereal binge once in a while, and I'm not really sure why.  I'll pound down an entire box of something like Cinnamon Toast Crunch.. and then my teeth will hurt for a week.

Been able to keep myself from doing that lately, though.. have to admit, I've never binged on fruit.  If I'm going to binge, it SHOULD be on something like that.

Oh, and TOTALLY on Peanut Butter, too.  I've been known to hide in a corner with a spoon, a jar of PB and a jar of Jelly, and.. well, nothing good comes out of that.

I used to binge on pasta and potatoes like nobody's business.  I'd regularly have four or five potatoes sliced up and fried for dinner, or four cups of pasta with cheese and butter and salt.  For some reason I don't ever binge on sweets or PB or cereal, but starches always got me.

white rice. 

i love white rice and can eat it plain, topped with whatever, i don't care. it's my nemesis....which is a big problem b/c i was raised on indian cuisine which is mainly curries eaten with rice (and potatos and bread...at the same time!).  it's been really hard to change my perspective on what constitutes a meal!

anyone else in a relationship with rice?

Lysistrata, I don't mean to burst your bubble, but cherries are about 75 PER CUP not PER POUND.  that makes approximately 300 calories per pound.  so three pounds a day is about 900 calories worth of cherries.

Snabet, she paid 75 cents per pound.

ah, thank you for the correction. my mistake.

I think if you are going to binge on fruit, you can't do much better than cherries. They are naturally low in sugar. Blueberries are full of lovely anti oxidants that are beneficial to your health.

I haven't binged in ages, but my binge of choice would be cheese. Any cheese. Keep the bread or crackers, i'll just take the cheese. Cheese is the devil.

I miss cheese :-/

CHEESE!!!!! I CANT stay away from cheese. I tried to just not eat it and i'd end up eating....literally....almost a whole block of cheddar when i got home from work. So i've decided that every day i'd take one serving of cheese...and cut it into TINY little pieces. I mean literally 2mm square pieces. I keep it in the fridge at work and if i want some i'll just go and grab a few pieces and let them melt on my tongue. I bought a ittttyy bitty little container to put it in too. So i know that I cant eat more than that ONE container worth of cheese.

hahaha, i love cheese too!!  that's been so hard, because i haven't eaten cheese in what feels like forever!  (haha, it's been a week...)  i might have to do something similar because i can't stand not eating any cheese!

for some reason i'm hooked on grapes... i'll be eating them by the handful, and since i've been practically living on fruit smoothies (banana, pink lady apple, handful of strawberries, can of pineapple, and a few blueberries) for the past week.... lets say i've become best buds with my upstairs bathroom... I've got to stop buying those green nemises!!!
