Things you wish you could say

While in the Navy they acquired the nickname McPukes from me…. 3x from 3 different sites - food poisoning = 3 strikes, your out. Never again…. Still holding to it since 1989/90.

Lol, McPukes. Sounds appropriate, considering the situation. Not a nickname any restaurant wants to have.

I’m not shy about using it in public, online, etal.

Good for you! Wish I had that control but sometimes convenience wins out over health. Sadly

You give me too much credit. McDonald's is not something that tempts me, but I have other things I indulge in now and then. Sour gummy worms being one of them.
A practice I try to live by is if I really want something, I can have it, but I can't have all of it all at once. Moderation is key. I figure it's the only way I'm still the same size after four kids.
My husband is also on the same page as far as what kind of food he wants to eat on a regular basis, so we're not inadvertently sabotaging each other.

I am extremely bad at the moderation part. I’ve been working on it though and getting better at it thankfully but for me, it’s still usually better to just not buy it in the first place because if it’s there, I will eat it

We're all a work in progress! It's great you're working on it.
And I agree, some things don't come into the house because I will eat it when I get the munchies.

But yeah, I’m the same way

You are responsible for where you live. This means the house you live in. This means the town/city you live in. This means the country you live in. This means the world you live in. Stop assuming that everything is someone else's problem.

That^^ exactly.

I don't mean to sound like a snob, but I haven't eaten at McDonald's since I was a teenager. Bit of a health freak over here.

I think, in my entire life, I only ate there about 3-4 times.
