Up to the blue line is the normal ‘single’ measure however Lorena , one of the staff, is in a good mood .

2 euros 20 cents for the galao and brandy .

I don't eat breakfast, except on holiday.

For one short period of my adult life I did.

Breakfast was:

Two plates of porridge
Cooked breakfast (as much as I could get)
Six slices of toast and jam

Morning break:

Two packets of sandwiches

Lunch:

Cooked lunch with seconds and occasionally thirds.
Pudding x as many as available
Four slices of bread and butter

Afternoon break:

Two packets of sandwiches

Tea:

As much as I could get.
As many puddings as I could get
Four slices of bread and butter.

Supper:

Two packets of sandwiches.

I calculated it at about 7 - 8000 calories a day. A huge intake, yet despite this, I lost weight.

Forget about fancy diets, do military basic training for 13 weeks. Of course, your kit is 'fitted' when you arrive, on passing out, my No2 Shirt collar was about 4" too big, and I wasn't fat when I joined up.

I was talking to a neighbour the other day who is ex-Army Catering Corps, he mentioned the days when we could run five miles without stopping, and had enough air to chat as you went. He said 'Fancy trying it now?' He maybe could actually, he is one of those wee wiry people, I would be needing oxygen at 100 yards.

I think my record consumption in one day was 6,000kcal. My mam always used to say I had hollow legs as I seem to stay at a stable weight whatever I shovel in.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Two bags of crisps (ready salted). Half a bag of fruit jellies. A banana.

 

[existentialist]

Drowned eggs, refried beans, tortilla.

Turned out to be quite a big portion <burp>. I probably won't eat until later this afternoon, now.

It’s reasonable variation on heuvos rancheros (or shakshuka). Pretty standard breakfast fayre.

 

[existentialist]

Yep. And very nice it was, too.
