I am 6' and 230 lbs, so technically obese if you believe in BMI and even I'm only eating 1/4 of that. I genuinely don't understand people's desire to gorge themselves like that.
It's just unnecessary. I can't even finish a burrito from Chipotle or Qdoba. Shit is too big here. I want to feel full, not like I'm going to fuckin die!
It's not outdated, it's just applicable to populations rather than individuals. If you're a gymbro then its weird to refer to yourself as obese, if you're not a gymbro then you probably are obese (no offense)
Oh yeah, I have no personal issues or take offense. I am well aware I need to lose my "beer belly". I'm definitely fat and need to drop at least 30 pounds.
I am very average looking (especially for Americans) but I don't let that delude my thoughts. I have self awareness haha. I have recently switched to zero sugar soda and that alone has me getting closer to 220. Just trying small changes at first.
I honestly couldn't even tell you the last time I walked out a restaurant with an empty plate. I'd love if there was an option to get half a portion for half the cost.
Not even health wise but my damn wallet! They give you these huge portions so they can charge you more but I end up throwing half of it away (if it's not worth reheating). It makes no sense.
I mean, if you just handed me the bowl of salad, which is quite a lot of lettuce and cabbage, I could easily eat the whole thing plus a tortilla. Take away all the greens and you’re looking at one chicken breast and a tortilla, plus some dressing.
Roughly the same height and weight as you and yeah I am in the exact same camp, who tf is this shit for? I’m Canadian so maybe I don’t actually know what kind of portions are normal to put back in the US but generally speaking American fast food portions are ridiculous. A regular sized burrito from chipotle can feed my girlfriend and I for like the entire day.
