Yeah, thats why I gained so much during college and working. Up at 5:30am swing by Mcd's, sit on my butt all day at work, some fast food in between work and school, sit on my butt all night at school. Head home around 10:30pm swing by Jack and get an ultimate with curly fries and shake, go to sleep. Four days a week that was mostly my routine. Fatty Fatty.Originally Posted by nfpgasmask

The average person requires about 1100-1300 caleries a day. A little less if trying to loose weight a little more to gain.
I consume 4000-7000 a day depending on my training load...and still lose weight
Along with how much you eat and probably more important is what you eat. I found one of the easiest ways to lose weight is to do without fried and processed food as much as possible. It is okay to enjoy some junk every once in a while (helps control binging) as long as its in moderation. As stated above...eating 4-6 small meals a day is better than eating 3 larger meals. Most people eat their largest meal in the evening. This is not ideal. Morning and noon should be larger meals as you are more active and burn more caleries. Evening meal should be a lite meal as your body begins to slow down to prepare for sleep. One of the worst things you can do is skip meals. In the short term this will work but then your body begins to go into starvation mode. It adapts thinking it is not going to get a meal and slows metabolism and stores more fat to prepare for starvation.Hope that helps a bit.

After living in San Diego two different times, I never figured out the draw to In and out. Their food was marginal at best, and expensive.
I think it is some Socal hype. The same as everyone thinks that Socal is the place to be and that orange county is this magically cool place. Guess what, its not, only the parts they show you on tv.
Give me BFE Missouri or Ohio or Idaho and so on any day.

Sorry but In and Out is probably one of the healthier of the fast food joints. They prep all their food to order including their fries. I guess you like your food when it's been sitting under a warmer all day long!
No SoCal isn't the best place, but definitely in the top 3. 1st is Moab, 2nd and 3rd are tied for Pacific Northwest and Cali. I have traveled all over the states and these have everything an outdoor enthusiast could want. Californians just have a low BS tolerance... maybe that's why you don't like it...
Missouri is filled with man made lakes, sponsered by Eric Estrada... I like the real deal! Idaho is cool, Moab is better! Ohio... meh... not a fan... I plan on visiting Cedar Point soon though. Hopefully that will sway my vote.
My folks moved to Cali from the Midwest and they don't even want to come back to visit me! Why??? Cause it's AWESOME on the west coast!!!! Some of the best scenic driving you could ever do, on and off the road!
OH yea... I lose about 1-2lbs every morning after I relieve myself... Maybe you should use the w.c. more often...
I am so glad I am 23 and don't have to worry about this stuff for a few more years... hopefully ever! LOL My day will come...

I REALLY don't understand why everyone loves In&Out. I like Carl's Jr. MUCH better.

carls JR is my second favorite. thats where i eat here in colorado when i want fast food. fairly healthily made also actually.

have you ever had a 2x4, animal style, with onions?
Super VXer
Holy Carp! I can't believe it, I agree with Marlin! In&Out was blown WAY out of propotion as I was headed there for the first time. Never been back! I couldn't understand the draw because the taste was not Good Times in CO; not even close. Jack, don't you like Good Times? Big Daddy Combo w/ Root Beer & Wild Dippin Sauce - Mmm MMM, my fave!

Good words to live by. One point to add tho, if you diet - take a one-a-day suppliment to help avoid that starvation mode. BTW, I don't practice what I preachThe average person requires about 1100-1300 caleries a day. A little less if trying to loose weight a little more to gain.
