If so, what is the next rational move after engaging in such an activity?

(18,219 posts)I was on a strict diet. I was craving pizza for days. Of course I couldn't have pizza. Well, craving have a mind of their own, and they can get very powerful. When I finally gave in, I just could not stop.
The next move was to swear off of strict diets. I will never deprive myself of anything, I will just watch portions. And this is how I learned that lesson.

(4,833 posts)Had just returned from months and months in the desert, after the first Gulf War. Hadn't eaten anything like pizza the entire time I was there.
Flew in direct from the Persian Gulf into DC - Dulles. Went home (I lived in Arlington, VA at the time). Couldn't sleep. Too many time zones time differential. Called Dominos. Got through most of an Extravaganza and a couple of Heinekens. I should not have eaten at all . . . .
Ugh. My gut wasn't right for a couple of days afterwards.
Other than not eating that crap at all, the next most rational move would have been to emulate the ancient Romans and to repair to the vomitorium. But, noooooo, I tried to sleep it off. It didn't work.
This was, what, a couple of decades ago. To this day I still can't stand the thought of pizza. I blame Dominos. And Bush.

(45,558 posts)Well, I got stoned one night and my friend was working at a pizza parlor and we had a pie that was ordered and never picked up.
so he said I'll time you and I ate the whole pizza, just cheese and pepperoni, in about 45 seconds...
There was talk of challenging Mush Mouth but I never felt right...

(15,366 posts)A whole regular pizza in one sitting -I wouldn't be able to do much more than snooze on the couch afterwards. But the next two days would be hell in the head.

Ummmm.... Monday or Tuesday we made 3 frozen Mystic Pizza pies for a family of 4... and I ate my share. But they're not very large.
I CAN do a large pizza by myself, but don't normally. Although a Domino's thin-crust pizza is light enough for me to do. Not the regular crust, though... to much.
I'll eat a whole medium pizza, although on the days that I do I try to skip breakfast make room for it.
And after finishing it, I typically refill my cup, because I get thirsty.
