Eugh. "Fat is beautiful" is a gross incidence of cognitive dissonance where we lie to ourselves about our shortcomings. Fat is disgusting, fat is unhealthy, fat represents a lazy society of slackass idiots, and fat needs to be treated like such.

soda
Soda is the worst thing you can put in your body short of chowing down a double Big Mac. And it's the sort of thing people will, far too casually, overindulge. I'll have one every now and then, but I see people sucking down a litre or more per day.

I never ever drink soda, unless I'm at Tender Greens or BJ's, because they have hand-crafted sodas and lemonade there.

I LOVE that place! How do you know about it? Their steak and kale salad is seriously fantastic. Their steak is always cooked perfectly medium-rare.
You definitely would appreciate that place, because you are a skilled chef. Portland has really good seafood though, don't they? And great beer.
And man you think a litre a day of soda is bad, I actually knew a woman who drank A FUCKING CASE of soda each day. That's like 1400 calories just in soda, WTF!!!!
Better to be an alcoholic.

No, Tender Greens is an organic, vegan-inspired (but not vegan) type restaurant. They basically have fresh salads and sandwiches, except their vegetables and quinoa are SUPER fresh, their meats, chicken, and fish are always cooked to perfection. And all of their sodas are hand-crafted. So I always get their root beer or cherry coke when I dine there.
What a typical Tender Greens meal looks like:

It's a chain of restaurants in California with an emphasis on freshly prepared, good foods. I've been to the ones in Pasadena and Hollywood a handful of times. Pretty good food, nice establishment.
I like Costco too, though.

Visited a couple of the LA-area ones. I walked away pretty impressed, normally California restaurants are too damn big on the hippy vegan crap for me. I need protein and I need it cooked well.

Good seafood, tons of Thai and Vietnamese of varying degrees of authenticity, a lot of alternative/vegan/hippy places. Yes, we pretty much dominate the beer market. Though I mean that as Oregon as a whole. Deschutes, coming out of mid-Oregon, produces some of my favorite beers. Ever.

Do you have a source for that? I am genuinely interested in learning more about it. Many people offer metabolism as an excuse, and I never thought to question it.

It's very good for the price. I think any one of those plates cost between $9-$11. You also don't have to pay for a tip, since you pay at the cashier.

I've noticed that each branch is slightly different from the others. I've only eaten at the San Diego and Irvine location, and I thought the Irvine location didn't taste nearly as good. Meat wasn't cooked properly, vegetables weren't as shiny and radiant, and sauce tasted kind of sour. The San Diego location was 10000x better and prepared all the food properly.

Anabolic/Androgenic steroids and HGH. That should about do it. Oh but lifting weights helps. That'll be 75.00 as a consulting fee If you think about it I'm way cheaper than a personal trainer. I'll Email you where to send the cash or money order I don't do checks.

There are plenty of well-documented things you can do to increase your metabolism. No snake oil (though, fish oil helps) or pseudoscience involved.
DHA and EPA, found in fish oils, have a drastic effect on the metabolism. Maintaining an exercise routine will increase your metabolism. Basically you want to train your body to stay active and to effectively utilize the fuel you give it. You also want to put good fuel into your body.

Yea I agree, New York City has the most Michelin star restaurants.
Apparently Tokyo has the most three-star Michelin star restaurants though (the highest rating possibly given in a Michelin rating).

Favorite one I've been to so far was El Celler de Can Roca in Girona. I'd love to take a trip to Tokyo and just spend like, a week, eating.
