How many wings can you eat? Pizza slices? Burgers? Sushi?

Tonight I made hot wings for dinner and ate three, and a spoonful of macaroni salad. I (lightly) chastised my husband for eating 6 wings and then wanting to eat more. Yes, they are unhealthy and no, I don't make them very often, but the bigger question here is, how many is too many? If I had eaten one more, I would have thrown up.

When we get pizza, I only eat one slice. I'm not a huge fan of pizza but that's not why I don't eat more. I just feel like one slice is enough. Dontknow When we go out for sushi, I eat 3 pieces. Not rolls, pieces.

But I know so many people that boast about being able to eat a whole pizza, or 20 chicken wings, or 2 burgers, or 2 dozen oysters, etc.

That Nathan's hot dog eating contest? Yeah, I would seriously die after the third one. laugh out loud

How do those people not explode? Huh

Never heard of such a thing... What is it? Do they just use pepper jack or something like that?
I meant was I like jalapeno and chilies as extra topping

Pizza, maybe two slices. If it is a restaurant burger I will eat half. I have never been able to eat much though I do love food and cooking. I come from a family of skinny people so I have the opposite problem most people have. Last year I deliberately started eating more cause my weight was getting too low, usually I stop as soon as I am full but I have been eating about 20% more and I gained a couple of pounds back.
This is a terrible habit to cultivate. If your metabolism slows as you get older, you don't want to have gotten used to eating past when you're full. I'd try to supplement calories with some kind of protein shake. That's what people who work out a lot do.

For the second time in three years, Molly Schuyler's chicken-chomping skills led her to victory at Philadelphia's Wing Bowl.

Schuyler downed 429 wings Friday morning in a photo finish with fellow professional eater Patrick Bertoletti.

Same girl holds the record for eating the Adam Emmenecker sandwich at Jethro's BBQ in iowa. (it's a 5 POUND "burger" that also comes with a pound of waffle fries and you have 15 minutes to eat it)

Yes true, I don't especially enjoy it either. The reason I started losing weight was because I started working out more (went from one a day to two on most days). I've been eating lots of nuts and nut butters and more fats, including my favorite unhealthy fat, whipped cream yummy I 'll try some protein shakes too Smilie
