What Is Your Biggest Guilty Pleasure? (Food or Not)



Recommended Posts

Cheddar cheese cubes. Sometimes they are my lunch, but NOT every day. The desire. for cheese was not a casualty of my surgery, unfortunately. I do find them filling, however (about 5-8 cubes).

oh cheese CURDS (not fried) are so good to me! I have to limit how many I buy at the store so I will run out before I have eaten too many. and I MUST portion them out into single serving sandwich bags or I will eat the whole lot - it may take me half a day but I will. and then I will pay the price of eating too much cheese later on. so - sort them into servings is what I do.

Hot food---not spicy---just hot food.

I find eating so slowly my food gets cold before I can finish my meal. I know I can "nuke" it, but I just don't think food tastes as good and fresh once it's reheated.

AND of course those "Demon inspired" crunchy Cheetoes. I can't even have them in the neighbors' house!!!! I can smell them out like a hound dog treeing a raccoon.

I have not, when I was trying to decide between Ipsy or Birchbox a couple people I know said go with Ipsy. I like makeup and they said you get more makeup with that box and more general beauty ( cleanser, hair products etc) with Birchbox.

And I love the super cute bag you get every month. I actually use them as clutches when I go out at night and don't want to carry a purse. They are perfectly sized for phone, cash, phone and lippie!

Guilty pleasure??

Skirts. Cute ones. Flouncy ones that sit above the knee. Been buying them and wearing them every day since June. Almost went all summer not wearing shorts unless I was in the garden. Heck today I turned over my planters to fall mums wearing one!!!

Found a great little shop that takes beautiful silk saris and turns them into a wrap skirt. post-284996-14737317193347_thumb.jpg

Wearing one now. And it's flouncy, and girlie, and sexy and fun. Like me!

Saturday College Football. It's the equivalent of a porn addiction or something like that. I was watching a game, had my iPhone on another and iPad keeping track of scores. If I ever start betting, I'm going to rehab.

I didn't even know I should feel guilty about that! look, I watch every game I possibly can. the TV is on ALL weekend during football. if there is no game on, I am listening to someone talk about the games. we may end up in rehab together........... naw, that would be a problem for the keepers!

My guilty pleasure is going to my favorite coffee shop by myself. It is my time that no one gets to take from me!

(1) I get to wear a favorite shopping find, hair and makeup.

(2) My chai tea skinny latte is an addiction.

(3) I get the chance to people watch and have casual conversations.

I've mostly reigned in my indulgence in guilty pleasures......

It's fun to have fun, though. No guilt from most funs.

Life is much more enjoyable now that I'm a bit more streamlined and able to do things I enjoy.

My wife and I are quite sexually adventurous so the current guilty pleasure is sugar free chocolate Syrup and our imagination.

Bamsucka !!!!

There it is..........one of the greatest byproducts of wls........getting thy freak-on !!!!

We have been freaks for years! My wife has a 4 year in psychology with an emphasis on abnormal sexualality. I swear that I'm a thesis paper. I'm pretty sure that after I go to bed she writes in a journal "dear thesis paper, you won't believe what he did today".

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
