Did you read the post? It's a commentary on countries that literally eat their food more quickly compared to others.

You are on that hot new diet of eating less than 2500 calories and exercising?

Not sure if that's sarcastic or some crazy new diet thing exists? I don't really subscribe to those or even read about them. I look at losing weight or gaining it (for bulking) as something very scientific and tailored to ones body. I used to train for bodybuilding, so this isn't just me talking out my ass either. The one constant like all things in life is dedication. Read all the books, buy all the supplements, gym passes,etc. and they won't mean shit without unwavering dedication.

I was reasonably healthy and fit in college. After five years of sitting at a desk, I realized I became rather unfit, and accordingly I've been on a reduced-calorie diet the past few weeks.

I've had quite a bit of fast food, especially Wendy's. Down about 16 pounds so far...
