Seconded. I'm so used to general Chinese food that any other ethnic foods are just awesome.

What? Who cares about carbs? Tons of Asians eat rice without having to worry about being fat. I actually want to gain some weight, but no matter what I eat, I barely gain any. I'm still stuck at around 125 lbs. I eat tons of rice.
If we're talking about cooking in general, it's probably so you don't have shit burnt and stuck to the bottom of your pot. So it'll depend in the type of pot you're using and what you have in it.
For rice, I was always told to add 1.5 times the rice's volume in water. So 2 cups of rice would have 3 cups of water added to it.
I know your pain, I'm only 95 pounds and cannot gain any weight :/

I was unable to leave early enough before the deli section closed yesterday so I got it for lunch today.
I was so excited I forgot to take pics before I started eating lol. Fatty brisket with a side of baked potato salad and beans that I actually eat (normally don't like beans at all)

My height is 5'4" though. If you're taller than me, there's no reason why you wouldn't be heavier than me.

I might be able to help you with that. I went from 115 to 150 in about six months, and I was/am still a "hard gainer" who can't really put on weight. Let me know, and I can tell you what I did.
I once tried protein drinks and whatnot, coupled with exercise, in an attempt to gain weight. I ended up losing weight and pooping all that protein out

Pretty much the same deal with me. I'm not trying to gain a massive amount of weight. Maybe an extra 5 pounds or so.

Need to count your calories.

Oh, well then. But still! Lol. I know more about you guys! Yeah!
I'm 5'11" at 148lbs.
SRG01, was it great relationship? :0
Can't count calories if all that happens is pooping it out
Surprisingly enough, I didn't gain (muscle) weight until I stopped ballroom dancing and exercising regularly. It only happened with light exercise... sometimes I suspect that I didn't eat quite enough even with increased protein intake (stress didn't help either) which caused my body to atrophy quite a bit.

It was great in the beginning, then ended in the worse way possible

Your money, your rules now!
Well, I can't say that I get thrills from ordering stuff, but I've definitely used canned or leftover pineapples on a ham pizza to make my own Hawaiian pizza before. Also have fond memories of using some of the 30+ McDonalds ketchup packets on the kitchen counter at home instead of a perfectly unused bottle of ketchup sits in the fridge.
Ketchup inside those packets gets really really dark after a couple years. Still good though lol.
As for guilt, the last time I had a serious case of that was when I went to fish camp for college. The lunches were pre-paid and cafeteria/buffet style. I had gotten three burgers because I used to eat a ton of food, plus it was 'free'. I ended up only eating one of the burgers since it tasted like cardboard, but as I sat there staring at the remaining burger and slowly trudging through the second one the other fish (all white) gave me this novel idea, "If you're done eating just throw it away." Up until that point, it was just pure blasphemy to just throw away food on my plate since I had grown up with the mentality that you just had to finish everything you got. Doubly so since I picked up that much food on my own.
I still feel bad when I can't finish the entirety of a meal, but it's definitely not as bad as before and even less so if I can finish all the meat at least.

My condolences bats
Thank you all so much.. I didn't expect to come in here with all this. I'll admit that it really made me cry from the thought. I'm trying to handle it as best as I can but it's getting harder it seems.
I truly appreciate this guys, and to you bunny, for sharing my story.
I'm also sorry to hear about your friend Blue..
YesNO, I would gladly accept that hug. Although, I know it'll start the waterworks for me. As it has been all day with everyone.
Thank you again, Asian-GAF. I'm happy to have stumbled upon here.
