I’m starting to realize why us Americans are getting so fat: restaurant portions are grossly oversized.
Wanted to eat out for lunch today for the first time in the new year, and I’m struggling to find a restaurant where literally everything on the menu doesn’t btfo my calorie budget. Ironically, fast food is easy to make work (but not what I want) because of how modular their menus are.
>just eat part of it and have leftovers!
I mean I can, but I shouldn’t have to. I should be able to order a normal amount of food for one person to eat in one meal.

The restaurant isn't forcing you to finish your plate. There's nothing stopping you from eating only half the plate or whenever you feel full or whatever. It's not the restaurant's fault. It's your lack of self control. The blame falls solely upon you.

I get you. They should absolutely have 2 portion sizes. At least restaurants like olive garden. Sure it's a good portion, but realistically id rather pay less and get a decent amount to fill me up there and not have to worry about leftovers.

It's an american thing where people's opinion on a restaurant is often based on how much food you get. Went to Europe this winter and when I ordered something I got a meal that I could finish without forcing myself of feeling disgusting.
Here in the US I've just accepted that I'll eat half of it and the rest will be tomorrow's lunch

Just go to restaurants that aren't there to cater to people who are looking to get a couple meals out of a meal.
You know if every burger is a 1/2 lb burger stacked with bonus meats and with a basket of fries you're probably not gonna find a small sandwich.
Instead go to either those lower tier restaurants that basically have quick made sandwiches already made or those higher tier restaurants that put a lot of effort into every course.

>I pig out once a day because I'm fat and call it OMAD
You aren't superior for eating once a day. 2 meals a day is fine, 3 is good if they're small, some people even do 5-6 small meals a day.
Make sure you clean your trough daily after gorging

never said i was kiddo. i was simply giving you a solution to the problem that you clearly can't adapt to because you have a toddler tantrum after 6 hours because your blood sugar drops. look i get it. i've been around people like you. my first gf was the exact same way and couldn't handle going without eating more than 6 hours. but don't take it out on people that don't have your crippling ailment.

Atta boy, slugger, I knew you wouldn't care because it just reflects negatively back on me, right tiger?

You know... I often wonder if the retardation jokes on this site are just that: jokes. And then every so often one of you proves it to be true. Today that's you. This is a take-home box. Where you can take home the portion of the meal you didn't eat. This can help you with portion control you fat little retard. Just have your mom ask for one.
