You can include heavy kababs, oily salans, parathas, white naans, white rice - biryanis, etc in this mix too. Pakistani food, sadly, isn’t all that healthy. Stick to veggies and daals…ya know…like Indians.
At shaadi’s, dawats, stay away from the gulab jamuns…lest you start looking like one. :k:
Mm high glycemic index foods lead to insulin resistance which then leads to obesity weight gain etc. you feel pretty poorly overall when you aren’t in shape. You will feel GREAT when you are in shape and part of that means cutting sugar from the diet, more of a paleo type diet. Low carbs, low glycemic index foods.
Doctors job is not to judge the patient, but provide whatever relief is possible and explain what he/she can do and whats not possible under given circumstances. You can give all the weight loss advice in the world, it works once in a blue moon.
And the person you described in your blog, is exactly the one who needs a gastric bypass, spare him your do your own meal thing and refer him for bypass.
Boo hoo. First, the fast food world has a lot more options than just those two places. Second, the specific meal combinations you get at those places determine if you’ll get fat or not. The problem here isn’t fast food, it’s too much of it. Skip the coke, skip the fries, get your sandwiches without any cheese. Your food still won’t be the healthiest thing on planet earth, but it would be way better than what most other people consume.
I don’t know how well all this works when you go past 50. But it’s working for me right now. I’ve been eating fast food for dinner for the past 6 months now and I’m still lean. I do limit it to once a day and like I said no coke or fries.
I can manage to stay ok too if all I do is eat 1-2 tacos from Taco Bell for dinner, but let’s face it, people don’t eat 1-2 tacos.
The beef being used in these companies is already dubious. See “Fast Food Nation”. Urgh. Ew.
Make food at home, or go to a proper restaurant and pay extra and use leftovers on other days - you basically end up with the same bill. I average about 4-5 dollars per meal if I eat out, thru restaurant food, sometimes even less.
If you make your own food, then cost goes down even further, plus you know what’s going into the food.
And you’re a guy, so things are just different for you. You are making sperm so fast, that your metabolism is simply higher than that of an older guy and definitely higher than that of a woman.
If we were making sperm, we’d all be bikini models.
I’m really annoyed at my siblings when I see how lightly they take things like high blood pressure. If I tell them to eat healthy and stay active they get offended.
Making food isn’t an option right now. Leftovers wouldn’t have anywhere to go in my tiny fridge. Besides I don’t even know where any of the decent restaurants are or what makes a restaurant decent.
As for your sperm theory, I couldn’t find anything about it online. That said there is no denying the advantage of have more testosterone. My body can make and maintain more muscle than a women’s or an older man’s can. Making and maintaining that muscle must take more energy, hence a higher metabolism.
Thank God for Halal McDonalds though.
