comfort food, really a comfort?

I don't know about most of you, but my comfort food is really bad for me.

usually when I eat the comfort food its supposed to make me feel comforted...but I always end up feeling worse.

damn you cheesy BBQ baked potato and fried okra.

i Know excatly what you mean , mine is hot brown bread, can eat a whole loaf , then feel really kak that i ate all that food

I tend to avoid comphert foods unless the mood REALLY strikes...but it's better to eat healthy when you can....

yeah i find i always feel worse after eating comfort food type food.

mostly because i always end up eating too much of it.

Pigs head, every sun we cook one up for the fam feast...and it's soooooo good, then im in my room thinking death is near.

I try to calorie budget for mine, but it's difficult, because it's usually pretty calorie-intensive. Also, you can hardly ever tell when you're going to really need it. Usually it's some kind of ramen for me. Or mashed potatoes. I've tried to get into pureed soups that incorporate potato, but also have some other veggies in it so it's healthier, but still satisfies the potato craving. It's so hard to balance what you should eat with what you want to eat. I'll never be a cold veggie-plate girl.
