We had the leftovers for brunch. They serve you large portions there for around 30-40 a plate.

So it's served family style?

No not that big, just pretty generous portions I was surprised.

For $30-40 a plate, I would be expecting big portions

Went to dinner last night to a pretty nice place and paid 35.99 for the halibut, baked potato and a pretty dope salad bar.

Fish looked small but was really fukkin good, I brought scale and weighed it, lol. It was 135g, the potato was 275g.

Not big portions by the look of it, but a good meal overall.

Definitely one of the more expensive nicer places we go to eat and don't go often.

Solid meal, solid company, nice restaurant and worked out a deal for the next 9 months or so of sports betting.

Heading to Arizona this weekend to fund the operation.

It’s how I’ve rolled ever since the investment banking days.

The amount of money spent on lunches in the Santa Monica strip clubs and Sunset Blvd bars and clubs back in the day would make you sick.

We all do dumb things in our 20’s, especially if we have money that we’re attempting to manage lol.

No I'm just busting KVBs balls for bringing a food scale to a restaurant. Poker players know what I'm talking about. A nit is a super tight player.

I've been tracking every single thing I eat for about a month now, weighing and measuring all my food. Not a crazy diet, just been tracking.

I spent the All Star break creating a dashboard in excel, I input foods as I eat them to the databse. I know, there's an app for that.

But as @purplegrape reminded us recently..."It hits differently when you do your own research."

Or as I used to say, "You can tell me all day long that it's raining ouside, but until I go outside and see for myself, I don't really know what you're saying."

Putting everything into the spreadsheet has been eye opening.

I'm 137 pounds and eat 3000-4000 calories a day in a well rounded diet.

Can't seem to gain any weight though. Crazy.

That's wild. I average ~15k steps per day, workout 3-4 days per week with an average burn of 550 calories per workout and can't lose weight. I rarely eat fast food, cook at home, and don't consume a large amount of sugar but it's still a challenge to get below 200. I have charted my food although not to the exacting standards of KVB but to no avail. I do have a lot of muscle mass but it's perplexing.

I can specifically relate to this struggle, but KVB on the other hand has a very unique struggle of his own that 99% of humans can’t relate to lol.

I weigh 137 pounds....

Not on a low fat or low natural sugar diet, by any means, but I am on a low saturated fat and added sugar diet...

USDA recommends saturated fight to be 6% or less and added suger to be 10% or less. That is very difficult to achieve if you eat any food from a store, lol.

Your seeing a very diverse diet with very few processed foods, very few.

Out of curiosity do you apply variance to your daily percentages? That could be a factor and could improve things.

Only funky thing is that in the very first chart you'll notice the total calories look to be more than the sum of the carbs, protein, and fat calories.

This is because I use net carbs in the carb calculation but the total calories are more as some carbs, like fiber, we don't actually burn, but it represents a total picture and things like fiber are pretty important.

With your diet how are your releases? Shooting or dribbling? Clear or thick ? It’s very important to know this.

Well, I guess I'll have to ask her that.

Or make a video or pics and let your peers decide.
