  my problem with potato chips is that a few pieces is never enough. I have to eat the whole bag. :P

  and what's not to like about salt and vinegar chips?

  Anyway, I feel ashamed.

  I had a BK Mushroom Swiss meal for dinner.

  And I couldn't make up for it through exercise cos I've been busy.

  I have sinned.

  It's really sad when I input the info into my daily food log spreadsheet....

  Total input for today: 2330 calories...... half of it that BK meal.

  So yeah.... a food log really makes you more disciplined with all these hard facts.

  I like Callibee Potato Chips and i don't mind these : Range of Potato Chips

  If going back to Japan, I will go find...

• Fatum

  28 Jul 10, 22:27

  if I find myself in japan I wouldn't bother with the chips .....

  I'd buy those semi dried scallops packaged like sweets and pop them as snacks ...

  the calbee chips in japan taste a lot better! and they expire within 6 months of date of packing unlike the export versions, meaning much less preservatives

  the sad thing is given my height, weight, age and average activity level(minimal), I shouldn't be eating more than 1,800 calories daily

  and 1 large bag of chips is like...1,400 calories LOL

  For my stats, assuming a moderate degree of activity level, I can take up to 2200 calories per day.... at least, that's what the online tools say....

  That said, I always calculate my output as (BMR + exercise output).... energy output for things like everyday lab work is disregarded to compensate for any discrepancies in the calculation of my food input.

  And let's face it: no matter how much you track your calories, there will always be some discrepancy. No two nasi lemaks are the same, for instance: one hawker may give a bigger portion, while another hawker may dilute the coconut milk....

  Got back around 45 minutes ago and I added a small bunch of grapes to today's tally.

  I just read an article that calls my design faculty a "dumping ground" based on employment and salary stats, but I'm proud to be part of it. You can't call it a "dumping ground" when you have to pass entrance tests and submit portfolios and create cool shit.
