Even still, Taco Bell wouldn't be the right way to do that, either. Not to mention the fact that eating late at night isn't so great either.

It's rather shocking spending a lot of time in other countries and then coming back here and noticing FATTIES EVERYWHERE, Amateurist. -- ALLAH FROG (knightofmar...) (webmail), Yesterday 9:08 PM. (Mingus Dew) (later)
RATHER. Actually, this is one of the most appealing things about america to me. Its hard to feel too bad about yourself on a day-to-day basis. Also, unlike Australia; weight, food, eating, dieting arent the only topics that are ever discussed. If I had to hear one more girl say 'ooh! i was so bad last night! i ate 6 doritos! ill be paying for that at the gym tonight!' Kill me.
My take on the whole fourth meal thing is Taco Bell securing its 1am post-party/bar customer base. Say you eat dinner at 6 or 7pm then you go out, to a bar or band or whatever. You head home at midnight-ish so you havent eaten for 5 or 6 hours and you're probably drunk or high. It makes perfect sense.

I think a lot of people I know work out solely so they can pig out, but nothing I've ever done manages to burn THAT many calories. Maybe take up gymnastics?

also: fourth meal is officially called "pizza." ref. Amanda.
also: cooking at home doesn't take any more time than going out to eat, dudes. the amount of time that you spend leaving your apartment, going to the Bell or wherever, eating, and returning to your regularly scheduled whatever isn't that much longer than just cooking for yourself. like, REAL cooking, with vegetables and shit. and, the truth is, cutting out lattes and beer probably would drop everyone's weight by a pretty significant amount, guaranteed (1 beer = 100 - 175 cal. multiply by whatever). while some people are genetically predisposed to be larger than others, NO ONE is genetically predisposed to be morbidly obese. think of it this way: 30 years ago there just weren't as many obese people (we're not talking overweight, btw, we're BIG TIME). has the gene pool changed since then? No.
most people eat poorly because they think they don't have time to eat well, and that just isn't true. also, because bad-for-you food is fucking delicious. but that's ok! just eat less of it!
― gbx (skowly), Friday, 16 June 2006 20:22 (nineteen years ago)
i have eaten a lot of salad today. and ran up (fake, treadmill) hills. i make 95% of my meals at home and i hardly even buy coffee/tea out. sometimes beer though, obv. but this is partly b/c i am teh poor studenty and b/c i don't really like cheap fast food at all. good roti or shish taok on the other hand...
yeah, i was thinking about portion control too when eating out. i can't have ice cream in the house b/c i tend to go through it fast, but going out and getting a cone is probably a good option! not eliminating the food entirely but distancing it from "craving" and "instant-access."
― rrrobyn (rrrobyn), Friday, 16 June 2006 20:38 (nineteen years ago)
This argument rests on the assumption that someone's "regularly scheduled whatever" is taking place at home. (For instance, if I wanted to make dinner in my apartment tonight, I'd have to come up with an extra hour and a half just in travel time getting there and back.) Also it assumes you don't live above or right next to or right across the street from a resaurant. Also unlike with cooking you can actually get a little bit more done (like reading or writing) while being served food.

But I mean you're right, of course, it's not necessarily quicker to dine out; cooking at home doesn't take that long at all; etc. I think it's less a matter of "time" in that way and more a matter of, umm, spatial arrangement -- not-cooking seems to link up more with not-being-home-around-mealtimes and having to grab quick things between other engagements.

My Aurora/Joliet tacos come with just onion, cilantro, and sauce. One place offers "tex mex" tacos, that come with lettuce, cheese, and sour cream.

Oh no! I mean, of course running is good for you, but apparently biking makes you lose fat more quickly? Something like that. I don't know, it's just what my husband's friend (an ex-triathlete) told him. Swimming and running are very good, but if you want to lose fat quickly, he recommended lots of biking. Swimming is good for getting muscles. Or something. Ah hell, I don't know. :-)
