How do you keep from getting fat?

100%. I am very much in the "order a meal and save half for later" - unfortunately, my wife does not have my problem with food, so she ends up eating my half before I can get to it the next day or the day after. :p 

 

But I do the exact same thing.

It tells you a lot when waiters here ask if you're 'still working'. You're presenting that unnecessarily large amount of food as a challenge, no bueno.

I can never understand the people who come into the place I work at during lunch, split some tots with someone, drink a beer or two, eat a 1/3lb. bacon cheeseburger with fries, and then presumably do things after that. I want to crawl in a whole and die if I eat that much food.

Watching someone stuff one of those idiotically huge 'Foodie lol' burgers in the face makes me ill every time I see it. Your body doesn't want that man.

I have the same thought. We are not farmers, three full square meals a day is far beyond the pale. My co-workers have full lunches and I eat, like, I dunno a small sandwich or a nutrigrain bar or something at best with water and I just don't know how they do it. I'd hate sitting back at a desk after that, and no way I'd eat any sort of dinner later.

Yes! I always save my food if I can in to-go boxes, but stop trying to make me finish my food right then and there!

I know it's petty as fuck and just a figure of speech but the phrase 'still working?' irritates me every time.

They probably can't understand how you do cocaine and contract genital warts. We all have our faults bruh.

Neither of you are special or superior for having a naturally lower appetite without even trying 

 

No one said I was special or superior? Where are you getting that reading? We're just agreeing on how we eat and how we feel about it and we're certainly allowed to remark on our confusion as to other peoples' eating habits from our personal perspectives. 

 

As usual presumptions are being made about fat shaming. I don't care if others want to be fat or not, that's their business. Not the choice I'd make (to be fat) but I'm certainly not gonna stop anyone from doing so. What a ridiculous thing for you to suggest.

 

Edit: And without even trying? I used to be fat in high school. I worked super hard to change my lifestyle for my own purposes, so, again, presumptuous on your part.

I didn’t think that let alone suggest it lol. 
 

Relax come over let’s smoke a bong

 

edit: you are right about the first paragraph actually sorrey bud

 

S'all good, you just came off as rather aggressive. I also do smoke weed regularly (it's great) so no worries, really. :)

 

It's just recently I got flak in a different thread on a different but related topic with similar accusations from two of the users in that topic and so this felt like an extension of that haha.

Did you have the sexy beard back then?

 

I did not - I should have, not realizing a good beard hides some face fat. It took me until after law school 8-12 years later to figure that one out, sadly. :(:lol:

 

I haven't seen my clean shaven face in 8 years now though - I've wondered what it looks like these days.

Based on what it’s like not really liking fold - I wish I could tap into that. I love food, I love cooking, I love eating it, I don’t eat a ridiculous amount but I find that if I don’t have something substantial at least for breakfast and lunch (usually porridge and then brown rice with vegetables and a protein) I won’t be able to function at work half as well as I do.

 

I balance it out with three or so 4-5 mile runs a week and now the weather is improving, circuit training. 
 

A nutragrain bar and a water is what I’d have at break time.

How do you track your calories? I have an elliptical (easier on the knees, and my dad has bad knees and I'm already starting to feel knee pain, although it's gone down in the last year as I've dropped 30 pounds) that has preset workouts, so I'll do the 500 calorie burn workout for example, although my Fitbit Versa 2 says I only burn 300, which I'm going to guess is more accurate since it's actually on my body even though I know those aren't 100% accurate either. 

My Garmin, since I run outdoors it uses GPS + my body weight to give a pretty good estimate.  Then I use my fitness pal to track what I eat.

Is that a lot of food?

I don’t know if that line of thinking or response really works anymore. 

 

In this section of the forum anything goes. I believe Fizzzzle hasn't had cocaine in 2 years minus the small hiccup. I'm happy for him and all I did was post a Jordan gif.
