what does it say about me that i would eat most of what is on thisiswhyyourefat. Well, or would anyway when i was still eating meat a few months back. Most of the stuff with meat looks in fact like the kind of stuff i might break veg for.

Lamb is/was actually my favorite meat. We often had it at home when i was growing up. A lamb roast is better than any other type of roast. Thing is after i moved out i probably only ever had it once every like...3 or 4 years. I went to an afghan resturant a few years ago that made amazing lamb roast with fried spinachs. One of the best thing i've eaten at any restaurant.

I actually prefer mutton! I like it a bit stronger tasting, with more fat through it. But sheep meat is my favourite, of the land animals.

If I had to pick one animal though it would probably be fish. No surprises there.

eh, this is nonsense

eating meat is not necessary for your survival. if you have regret, stop doing it

gratitude for something taken without being given isn't gratitude

etc.

Where/what did you eat out before? I should try that, I want to put on weight, but I'm losing weight when I can't cook myself.

what is your concept of survival? does it ******* some kind of gradation like I will be in better condition in 20 years if I eat a bit of meat every few days than if I don't...that kind of thing? Or just...if I don't eat meat, I won't die in the next few days.

if you have regret, stop doing it = non sequitur

gratitude for something taken without being given isn't gratitude - why not?

there you go

I just googled for advice on explaining transitive vs intransitive verbs because it has been a while since I've thought about it, and what do you know, the concept I was looking to explain already has a name: intransitive gratitude

It's like how people feel grateful for Billy Corgan's music even though he didn't give it to them specifically.

I feel grateful that I can be nourished by the flesh of a dead animal. And I feel regret that it had to die for me to receive that specific type of nourishment.

I suppose it could just be sadness and shame that i mask with other emotions that I find more palatable/digestible. It's hard to tell with these sorts of things and you know partly because it doesn't matter, I'm still going to eat meat, so....

i want to, too, but i'm afraid fast food would just make me body flabby and give me a large muffin top and more cellulite. mmm popeyes.

have you considered weight lifting and protein shakes? or just protein shakes after a walk or some junk?

i frequent a body-building website and they have so many options and i've read lots of reviews but i just can't pull the trigger on anything. but i want some sooo bad!

i think the main thing contributing to my weight gain was pho. they opened a noodle house across from work so i got in the habit of going there for lunch almost everyday

and i'd eat chinese takeout at least once a week

then my doctor was like "yeah... you need to cut this shit out" not only was i getting fat but my cholesteral/blood pressure was getting up there

what about bruschetta or fettunta, with butter and cheese and roasted tomatoes and basil. or nuts? Just eat peanut butter out of the jar, spread on apples and bananas. that seems to work for me. or pesto. so many delicious fattening ideas.

Now that sounds like an idea. But what can you mix in rum and vodka that gets you fat? (And isn't plain sugar.)
