What are you eating?

You wouldn't believe me if I said I forgot to attach it, would you?

Stock image from google that looks pretty close.

Take pictures of the actual food.

Take pictures of the actual food.

That's what I keep meaning to do, but for some reason I don't. I guess with all the cooking, eating, and cleaning up, I don't want to bother with taking pictures and uploading them. Most all the pics I post are from the recipes.

Pan-fried some prawns in chopped garlic and olive oil, then combined it with eggs and vegetables into an omlette served with 2 teaspoons of oyster sauce and a dash of fish sauce.

It was a nice break from peanut butter..



When you finished, were you ripped/fit-slim, or average slim?

I don't have 40 pounds to lose.. probably 4-10 max, and just aren't sure whether I can take it there with diet alone (almost).

Average slim because it was just weight loss with no exercise. I'm currently going back to the gym now, and lifting. Dropped almost another 10 pounds already.

Shouldn't you be gaining/maintaining weight with lifting? As in, lose fat but gain muscle which weighs more than fat. When I got fit, I lost 10 lbs of fat and gained 15 lbs of muscle.

Kind of stuck since then but making gains now that I'm going to the gym more regularly.

[animus]

Yeah, but I still have a lot more fat to lose. And I've only been going to the gym again for a little under a month or so. You don't really gain that much muscle that quickly. And my gym sessions aren't that long either. Like 30 minutes of cardio and an hour of lifting.

Just got back from the Atlanta Street Food Festival. I ate a crap ton of food. Most of it was awesome. I was only able to take pictures of about a third of what I actually ate.

They aren't the best taken pictures, but that's because we were moving or on the grass when eating.

Here they are:

Yumbi Asian Rib Eye Taco -This was great. The serving was small, but the meat was good, and the greens were refreshing. Sprinkling it with a bit of lime made it awesome.


Alcapurrias - Mashed roots veggies and green banana stuffed with meat. This was great with hot sauce, but pretty bland by itself.




Lamb Burger with Rosemary and Mint, Feta Cheese dressing, and Tomatoes on Ciabatta Bread - This was a winner. The rosemary and mint is always great with lamb, and that synergy was very pronounced in this burger. The ciabatta was a nice touch because it made it easier to eat due to the hardness of the bread.


Belgian Street Fries with Garlic Aioli - This was one of the best fries I have ever had. Crispy, nicely seasoned but not salty, and the mildly seasoned garlic aioli complements it perfectly.


Peach Bourbon Cake Shot - Interesting. Very strong alcoholic taste, but the peach flavor was missing.




Fried Plantains - Really bland. Even ketchup was not enough to save this.


Jalapeno Margarita Ice Pop - This was awesome. It was fairly spicy, which made you want to bite into the ice pop more, but that in turn causes you to taste more of the heat. It was a devicious cycle.


---------------------

The following are not related to the ASFF.

Grilled Peaches Topped with Sour Cream - I cooked this. It was just okay because the peach was not completely ripe.


Rotisserie Chicken with Peach BBQ Sauce, Sweet Potato Fries, and Mac and Cheese. - I had this at Georgia Peach in Underground Atlanta. The chicken was pretty good, but the peach bbq sauce was absolutely awesome. The sweet potato fries were well cooked, but the mac and cheese was absolutely horrible. It was dry, mushed up, and barely tasted of cheese. I did not finish it, which is rare for me.

How fat are you at the moment Shinta? >_>

Lucky bastard. That's awesome.

If his hands are any indication, he's slim despite eating all that food. Lucky slim folks... but to a point it sucks because you have to eat a lot to get full which gets expensive.

Are you an idiot? The human stomach holds around ~3 liters of food max.
It doesn't matter if you weigh 60kg's or 150kg's, the average size is always the same with an empty volume of only 45ml.

[Animeniax]

Yo momma is an idiot for not beating your ass some more when you were little. Regardless how much you can intake at any one point in time, skinny folks eat more throughout a day because they burn energy and shit out excess calories faster than fatties. And to assert that the human stomach is the same size in all humans is redonculous.

[darkshadow]

I was never debating burning more energy, I was debating the fact of getting "full"; no human being on this planet needs to eat throughout the day in order to get full.
And yes the stomach is the same size in all humans you dumb racist piece of shit, it has an empty size of 45ml and expands to a max size of ~3 liters; educate your bitch ass instead of making shitposts and racist "jokes".

[Kraco]

Now, now, behave yourself, folks. Dining table is no place for a loud quarrel. It ruins everybody's appetite.

[enkoujin]

I ordered some Subway today:

• footlong 9-grain wheat (toasted)
• meatball marinara
• white cheddar cheese
• all vegetables (lettuce, tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, green peppers, pickles, olives, banana peppers, jalapenos)
• chipotle and house (zesty italian) sauce

1460 calories, 85 g of fat, 49 g protein, 3280 mg of sodium.

Yeah, don't judge me - I'm only getting the most out of my ~$7.50.

So you're saying my 3-year-old nephew's stomach is the same size as mine?

why there aren't any festivals like this over here?

I think it's a uniquely American ritual, particularly with our multicultural history and need to celebrate all cultures and their foods. Only way to do that efficiently is to gorge at a festival.

As usual you pick up on one slip and run with it and make an ass of yourself. Yes, I meant it takes more eating for a slim person to satisfy their energy needs, not to get full at one sitting. Though that's debatable since I've known slim folks to eat a lot more at one sitting than larger folks, stomach size not withstanding.
