Dinner?

I just ate 25 M&M peanuts. I don't know what got into me but my tummy is sick:unhappy:
 

I did the same thing with a chewy candy product named "Chuckles". My Dad took me to our old Doc., nothing would stay down for over a day. He blamed the candy, said it was made with "coal tar", not good stuff. Prescribed "limewater", which actually did the trick!

M&Ms were back then chocolate filled only, I think. Their commercials always touted, "They melt in your mouth, not in your hand!" My Dad always jokingly claimed that was because they were coated with varnish! imp
 
Once in awhile we have to do things like that, Denise. About a week ago I ate two bowls of ice cream at about 5PM - it was like I couldn't stop - and I didn't get sick - just really full. Nothing else until the next morning. Feel better soon! :)
 
yes, I remember that commercial imp;) and those peanuts, I could see getting sick on those too jj. But I'm 62 now, you'd think I'd know better Well, my solution was to drink some apple cider vinegar in water and off to bed to hopefully, sleep it off, LOL!:eek:fftobed:
 
Oh AC, I feel better now, yes, I could not stop eating them:( I think I'll live, I WANT TO LIVE:lol1:

:lol: Totally unrelated but back when I was little my aunt took my grandma to the movies to see a Susan Hayward movie. The title was "I Want To Live!" and grandma could not stop talking about it. I think it was about some woman who went to the gas chamber.

Okay, end of story.
 
LOL, I know the movie, and that's exactly where I got the quote AC, LOL! I get a lot of my material from old movies my mom loved watching. So I grew up on them;) You are right about what it was about too;) I loved Susan Hayward. To me she was, and always will be unique, and under-rated;)

We bought a 750 gram pack of sugar coated roasted cashews from Costco a couple of weeks ago ( only because they were handing out samples ) we ate them in less than a week no wonder the scales went like this :whoops::whoops:when we weighed our selfs and to make matters worse I just bought new scales and didn't realise they speak your weight ..I intend gagging them next weigh day
 
25 M&M's doesn't sound too bad - they are only little aren't they? and anyway why did you count them - just dive your hand in and then you can say- well I'm sure I only had a couple and no one can prove any different!
 
I agree with Zante - 25 is nothing!

Now, if you said you went through a pound of them in one sitting, then you might worry ... but 25? Nah.

For dinner tonight I had a small cup of Mandarin oranges, a pack of cheese and crackers and an M&M bar (small size).

Chuckles? I still buy them once in a while, coal tar or no. :cool:
 
Nope, not hungry. I've been working on decreasing the amount of food I consume as part of my overall minimization philosophy. As a result, even though I know it isn't good nutritionally, I occasionally have such "dinners", along with usually skipping lunch and having a few pieces of toast for breakfast.

Then the next day I might pig out with a 4-egg ham and cheese omelet for breakfast, 2 tuna fish sandwiches for lunch and steak and potatoes for dinner.

You also have to consider - until recently I was 210 lbs. After my exploits in the hospital I'm now down to 185 lbs. Less fuel needed.

I just try to listen to my body and give it what it wants, when it wants it.

Vinegar in water?? Oh my gosh! Sleeping off the peanut/acid high! Actually, vinegar is now said to be most beneficial. My own forebears might have been psychic: "sweet-sour" was one of the preferred meal dishes, regardless of base content. imp
 
I did feel sorry for my roomie though. I was esfixiating myself, but wasn't worried as I thought she was doing a "sleepover" with her boyfriend. But she showed up about midnight. I played possum so I wouldn't have to explain myself, LOL! I share a room in a house by the way and everyone has a roommate except the manager;)

It was the true story of the first woman put in the gas chamber. And as I recall I believe the guy she was with was named Carroll Chessmen and he was gassed too. I should google it and make sure of my facts instead of just going on my memory here. I guess to tie it in with this thread I should say I was eating M&Ms not only when I watched the movie but also when I read the book by the same name. M&Ms have always been my favorite candy and now the ones with the peanuts in them are number 1 with me.
