OT: Watch what you eat!

[Coronita]

[quote=scaredycat]one of the healthiest things to eat is nothing. i do some 5 day water only fasts and feel completely new. 0 calories. i think fasting is going to be big in 2010…[/quote]

The problem is though that if you skip meals or fast irregularly, you end up messing with your metabolism, which could result in you gaining weight a lot faster when you resume eating.

I think the best thing probably to do is watch your intake in calories but more importantly get some exercise, then you can eat more of what you want.
(I need to take my own advice though).

Flu: I’m probably dating myself here, but I remember when going to McDonald’s (as a kid) was a big treat. I also remember my meal consisted of a cheeseburger (the little one), small fries and a small drink (like 12oz). We weren’t poor by any stretch of the imagination, but my folks treated going out as a pretty big deal.

I didn’t sit on my ass all day long either as a kid. We went and played outside until the sun went down and in spring and fall, I played baseball (Little League) and football (Pop Warner). I rode my bike everywhere and wouldn’t think of asking my mom for a ride to practice, I took my bike.

We didn’t overeat and we exercised. As a result, we weren’t fat. I coach football and I have kids that, when the season begins, literally cannot run a lap (440 yds) without stopping to catch their breath. It’s frickin’ scary.

Allan: I’m with you 110% on going to McDonald’s as a treat – it was a big deal to go out to McDonald’s.

One of the things I do is if I go to McDonald’s or somewhere like that, I don’t eat the buns, tortilla or anything like that – no carbs basically.

I can literally eat chicken, fish or other protein until I’m sick of it and I will still loose weight.

But the second I touch carbs – pasta, chips, coke, doesn’t matter I’ll weigh more the very next day.

Paramount: I’m Type 2 diabetic and have been on Adkins for years. Every once in a while, I’ll go a little nuts and eat bread or pasta (or sugar!) and I’m actually hungover the next day from the carbs.

If you go to McDonald’s, ask them to prepare your burger “no carb” or “protein style” (like In ‘N Out). Most Mickey D’s will know what you mean and dump the bun accordingly.

In ‘N Out does the Double Double protein style (no bun, wrapped in lettuce) and “animal style” (grilled onions and extra sauce). A couple of those and you could probably hibernate for a couple of weeks following.
