It's hard, especially in a low-carb, health-conscious, household. I have to consciously remind myself to eat several times a day.

I think Mrs BD would divorce me if I ate at Taco Bell.

You are not required to tell her everything.

But, not sure how you'd explain the belching otherwise.

Leave a bike under your pillow, and in the morning there'll be a quarter.

Oh, wait. That's Bike FAIRY.

I don't count calories. I doubt I go much over 2000 most days. After I lost those 14 pounds almost a year ago, I've been holding steady in the 170-172 range without trying. One of these days i'm gonna shoot for 166.

I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but I do Chipotle when I want some.

Is Chipotle the best option you have?

I ate at Taco Bell in Dumbdumb Land.

Chipotle is good. As you might expect we are surrounded by very good Mexican food. Probably 30% of our meals are some variant of Mexican utilizing grilled chicken or fish. There are a lot of healthier options - not all of it is cheese enchiladas and refried beans although the unhealthy options are very tasty. The killer is the pre-meal basket of chips. Usually have to tell the waiter no gracias on those.

I'm struggling with it. Yesterday I went on a football-induced culinary rampage - 700 calories in snacks, including tortilla chips, peanuts, a beer and pistachios. Still only totaled 1,700 calories for the whole day.

My biggest downfall is snacking, which is a consequence of being a night owl. If I went to bed earlier, I'd eat less, plus I'd also probably recover better. But I get sucked into starting to watch movies after 10 PM. And I still have to get up in the morning...

Another well-regarded regional chain with local roots is Braum's Ice Cream which started in Emporia, KS in the 50s under another name. Now it's headquartered in Oklahoma and they refuse to open chains that are more than a one-day drive from their dairy in OK, so basically 300 miles. It's kinda like Culver's but further south.

I also enjoy Culvers but the local franchise stopped giving free ice cream for dogs at the drive through (even though I was ordering regular meals so it wasn't exactly free) so I stopped going because Dairy Queen and Sonic still have ice cream for dogs. It's a fun treat for them.


Not unremarkable at all. These two came from there.

I'm not sure where you're coming from. You're quoting my base metabolic rate of 2,500 calories - that's what I burn sitting on my ass in the winter.

Reminds me of "Moon Over Parador" - "My fellow citizens, our diet is very tasty, but it is also very dangerous!"

I mean every rule has an exception and doggos are always exceptional.
