It's better for your metabolism to eat smaller meals plus snacks.

Poor planning then

I wouldn't say thats true at all, set meals are designed to be better, and if i recall from all the shit that ive read about eating in magazines, snacking only keeps you hungry, where as filling yourself keeps you full longer.


Infact snacking is bad for you.

so i don't know where you and smoth are getting your bad eating habits from.

grazing(snacking) is better if you want to keep off the pounds

I would disagree.

[smoth]

of course you would.

I would disagree.

Snacking keeps your metabolism running... yes you stay hungry, but if you are planning to snack 6 times a day you probably will be able to wait the 1 hour or so for your next snack instead of the 4 hours for you next meal...

It is important to "fill up" at least once every few days, otherwise your body thinks it's starving and starts storing fat so a balance is indeed needed between the two... so you are both right... smoth just happens to be significantly more right and the way that Spawn_Retard presented his opinion was ignorant enough for me to just assume he was, in fact, trolling...


Also, it's important to note that when we are talking about snacking we mean healthy foods and plan your snacks in such a way as to maximize weight loss, like having protein before bed so you stay full all night and only having carbs before (or after, I forget which) periods of activity... you are not going to loose weight eating cheesies (though the Cola diet I accidentally found myself on when I was working in a call center lost me quite a bit of weight... it also made me dependent on caffeine, dehydrated and slightly anemic for a while, so I wouldn't suggest it)

Depends upon lifestyle: For a native constantly on the move walking the landscape, taking a fruit here, some nuts there, that is certainly true, however for some civilian (western circumstances) the fruits&snacks have more kcals than anyhting that native can grab in a day, so for us it makes most sence to eat well composed meals (amount lowering from breakfast>lunch>evening meal) and something lowfat/lowsugar/loweverything (fruits, chewing gum, something) to chew upon for the instinct..

However what our intelligence suggests as clever behaviour and what our instincts make us do against our free will, is written on another paper.

MightCorruptor of Human Will enters the Arena and casts its smell. It is highly effective, making us all hungry apes, going for the sweet fruit, growing on the bakerytree, spreading the genes of the chochlattree, abandon every last particle of pride, replacing it with fat.

Right at this moment, you lie to yourself, that you would resist, that you are superior to the other weak beeings out there, and you will be aware of this lie, the next time you buy and bite. Eat it, there is no shame in beeing weak, but there is shame in not realizing it, lieing to yourself, there is shame in the false pride.

and people wondered why I said oranges....

I honestly do keep nuts oranges or similar normal foods around.

I don't think that what you're saying is entirely true about instincts making us eat to many sweets. I notice that when I eat too many sweets (even if I haven't eaten but a few pieces of chocolate) I will start to feel really sick if I don't stop eating it right then. Therefore, while I like the taste of specific sweets, I do not like to eat them very often and I won't eat them quickly either. However, I think that this may be true for me because I am not used to eating a lot of sweets. I am a very active person and I do eat frequently, but I still have to make sure eat enough things with protein in it in order to not get anemic and I have always had some difficulty with gaining weight. I also do not drink cola because I don't like how it fizzes and burns your throat. I've done some science experiments on cola too. It really does, in a way, rot your teeth (by facilitating tooth decay) and it has a lot of acid and sugar in it.

I also think that eating smaller meals and snacks is the solution to help curve the effects of slow and unhealthy weight gain over time.

I think the analogy got lost after page 1.

The video game is fine for now.

[Panda]

I beat all of the stages in Flower, but if you beat them again and get more petals, your flower on the window seal blooms even more. However, I have noticed that sometimes the flowers glow after you have already beaten the stage and am not certain as to what it means. Does it have something to do with the time of day on the video game or more bonuses or trophies? Does anyone happen to know?
