Yep 100% correct. It's that temptation of getting a big standard meal at a restaurant or take out and not eating all of it. Not necessarily throwing the rest out but knowing that when reheated it wont taste the same. The portion sizes have increased drastically 'Most marketplace portions exceed standard serving sizes by at least a factor of 2 and sometimes 8-fold. The standard amount of cooked pasta served in eateries exceed the USDA standard by 480%, and when it comes to steak, this number is 224%. Standard portions have increased over time; those offered by fast-food chains, for example, often are 2 to 5 times larger than the original size. The standard burgers in many fast food joints contain more meat than the USDA recommends consuming in a single day ( between 5.5oz and 6.5oz for a man, and 5 - 5-1/2 oz. for a woman), and when it comes to salt, they come dangerously to meeting your daily allowance for sodium- 1500mg.'

As for snacking I've never been a great fan of sweets with the exception of some chips one in a while but a lot of people are.

"When rats are drinking high-fructose corn syrup at levels well below those in soda pop, they're becoming obese -- every single one, across the board.

It's cheaper than regular sugar that alone tells you it's worse for you. I was never fat (skinny or thin most of my life) I got to about medium. I'm relatively thin boned and have (or had) a fast metabolism. My body looks ok but I gained some 'love handles' and face got chubbier, which I didn't like. This was all due to eating badly, basically eating 4 big meals a day. I stopped drinking soda, started drinking more spring water and eat 3 or 4 small portion meals with lean meat and veggies per day. In 6 days I dropped 9 pounds without exercise. BTW cutting back on beer also helps lol

Assuming that two out of three Americans are overweight.

Yes overweight by those stats means being even a few pounds over a 10-20 pound range for your height.

Try an Argie, Irish, or maybe a fillet from Brasil.

Found this 'The country that has the BEST beef is Japan, hands down! They have kobe beef, which is so tender that it literally melts in your mouth. It is basically like heaven.

The United States has the second best beef. I have had beef in some european countries such as Poland, Germany, and the UK, and it is okay but not as good as the US. Their beef is kind of grainy and stringy compared to ours.' And I've heard this from other world travelers it's hard to top US beef.

If you eat food that tastes a certain way for years you forget or even never had the chance to know how it's supposed to taste. I remember the last time I was in Poland and ate fresh from the farm meats and veggies and the meals made from them, I thought I was in heaven. My taste buds were going nuts. Although I have yet to taste a better steak than an American one.

movie actors back then compared to now. nowadays, actors have to be completely shredded and muscled up to even have a chance unless you're a fat comedian or something.

Yea I know but that's just a portion of them. Most don't exercise just take in exes calories and protein which turn into fat.

Well with athletes it's different, they're made big by their trainers for a reason. To be bigger and stronger to dominate not just equal their opponents. Look at the NFL defensive linemen these people after their career is over are cripples, 350-400 pound mini dinosaurs. But I know ther point you're trying to make, people are taller now then ever before so weight must also increase but as the article points out people's perception on how heavy (thick) a person should be has changed. That's because if 2/3 going on 3/4 of Americans are overweight what was normal before seems underweight nowadays.

One thing is for sure; food is freaky in the States.

We are going to have a 'fresh food only' rule

Most food (70%) is processed or GMO. 'A new Gallup poll of over 1,000 adults found that the average American weighs about 20 pounds more than the average American did 20 years ago. Back in 1990, according to the survey, the average American woman weighed 142; today, the average woman weighs 160 (the average weight for men in 1990 was 180 pounds, and today it's 196).'

There are still more overweight Americans than Poles but the increase has been more rapid. According to "Metro" since 1970 the number of overweight kids increased 3 times in the US while in Poland ,young girls alone , 10 times!

Poles gain weight faster than Americans . As reported by " Metro" , the number of obese children in the United States has tripled , while on the Vistula themselves obese girls arrived about 10 times , measuring the period since 1970 . What is the Reason for such a stroke weight? Of course, diet .

Young people in Poland easily led into temptation , and their parents meet the wishes of love or the need for peace. Buy , so his small tormentors bars and crisps , provided that bite an apple , for adults , it seems that if the boy will eat some fruit a day is healthy and can afford pozwlić for sweets.

Meanwhile, experts warn - The diet of children is too much fat , sugar and calories hidden in sweet drinks and juices . To make matters worse , more and more of them are not practicing the WF- e - explains Professor . Miroslaw Jarosz , director of the Institute .

Western lifestyle perfectly continue to dominate the Polish transform habits, but it is not denied . Still we eat so that to eat , not to zaspokić hunger , at the gorge in what economic changes brought to the menu : fast food. To consume increasing amounts of unhealthy and fatty foods , not only did not give up eating chops every other day , it's still a dołożyliśy the kebab and burger.

Love / Polish women are the most beautiful in the world! [1718]

Pennboy, her make up is holding the edges of her eyes not to fall on the floor.

No it's not I saw her without makeup and is still pretty.

Natasa:
Most of the white men like white women, preferably blondes. Preferably bigger breast, longer legs too

If I had to choose a favorite type of woman then I would probably pick this type too

Everyone likes blue eyed, long blond haired tan girls. I've got a couple different types something like this more or less...

elaborate, pls.
darvinists would say what now?

ethnical backround is? ;)

Yes like this one girl I saw last summer in New Jersey that was the most beautiful girl I ever saw in my like (too bad I didn't ask for a picture) looked like a Irish-Italian, maybe Polish-Irish-Italian or somethin' like that with crystal blue eyes, long medium dark brown hair, nice tan, I mean there was absolutely not a thing I could find that was wrong with her, perfect. Usually people who are fully of 1 ethnic background may not be ugly but are in general less attractive them someone who is 2 or more.

No one's saying that. The prettiest girls I've seen in my life were American, it's that different European ancestry mixed that makes them like that. BTW Brits love your Gemma Atkinson what a babe!

She has a pretty ugly face to be honest. Reminds me of a pig...

I was commenting on her boobs, her face isn't all that great and is too fat. I doubt you even had a hog like that.

A few more Polish girls..

Mods, this can be merged with another thread. While I will say that they tend to overrate themselves, beauty is in eye of the beholder. Many are beautiful and some aren't.

Many most certainly are beautiful. I prefer the more western European look, fair complexion, longer face, blond, brown or red hair.

Most Polish women I've met in the UK are either Butt-Ugly, Average or mildly pretty.

Pretty girls can marry good looking guys with money in Poland and have no need to leave the country.

HAHA I too think that was it's purpose. However many white pûrnstars choose not to have interracial sex because in the industry that almost always means white and black.

Life / Rich man, poor man - today`s Poland [80]

According to the UN, Poland is a developed country. It occupies the 41th position on the 42 country list.

It still has a long was to go but Poland is progressing. They say China is becoming wealthy but that's on overall GDP definitely not per capita and gross national income in which it lags behind with the 6th spot. The US is still the leader in GNP, GDP, and GNI.

i have a different view. prn is accepted here. it's this acceptance that makes it no big deal.

Prn itself. But not Polish girls having sex for money on film. If Poland had as many girls in the industry as Czechs do they'd wanna outlaw it.

It's because Poles compared to Czechs are much more religious, at least on the surface, and is in Polish society not accepted and considered very wrong.

Why you wanna watch a movie tonight? LOL. But seriously I don't think so, there's only a few Polish prnstars and many only do softcore stuff. It's Much bigger in the Czech Rep. and Hungary. More liberal people, more slutty girls? prettier girls? who knows.
