I was checking out the Fat!So? website <http://www.fatgirl.com>
when I came accross the observation among hotel workers that fat
conventioners do not eat more than thin conventioners do, except in two
areas, more water and more bread.  People we guessing "bread and water"
may be something psychological to do with prisons.
        Two hypothises's I've came up with is that this proves the "bread
is bad for you" argument all over again, and that fat people are not
going to pay hotel prices for food.  I know I rarely would.  (At Visions
'97 I figure I may as well, as I cannot walk a few blocks to McDonald's
and expect anything edible to await me).
        Speaking of eating out, I found one place that LOVES me.  I askes
for a streak rare, really rare.  They gave me something that was cooked,
but that was COLD in the middle.  I like my meat a little pink, they gave
me one a lot PURPLE!  It was heaven.  Gnawed on that cold raw thing until
my hands were covered with grease and blood.  (I don't use silverware on
meat if I can avoid it).  My friends like eating with me because they
know I'll give them my potato products.
        Next Wednessday I have a short get-together planed with some
friends.  I bought some junk food for them to eat, and also some hotdogs
(nothing but organic beef, water and onion powder).  It took my mom to
point out to me that, hey, what about the buns?  Even as I was buying
coke and doritos, I forgot that hotdogs need buns.  I still have to pick
up a bag of pork rinds to crunch on when people are eating their crunchy
things.  Jays pork rinds look like they are just pork skins and salt.
Everything else has flour and/or MSG.  I double over in pain from MSG,
and I don't want to think what flour would do to my body.  I had a slim
jim last week.  Two bites, and I got sick.  TWO BITES!  I stoped after
the second bite because I didn't LIKE it anymore.  What's the point in
cheating on a diet if the food sucks and makes you ill?
