<p>i cant seem to get fat either. i eat a lot of fast food at home. multiple times a week. dont exercise. dont gain weight.</p>

<p>I don’t know what liquor you’re drinking (151??), but most standard 40% is about 80-100 calories a shot, compared to around 150 calories for a beer. </p>

<p>it isn’t scientically proven but i just happen to think liquor has a cleansing effect (gets rid of toxins and cleans out your system), while wine and beer sticks to you… and of course a chaser makes it far fattier. So don’t use a chaser :)</p>

<p>All the dorm walking is overrated. Walking really doesn’t burn that many calories, maybe a few hundred max.</p>

23

<p>but you can drink a lot more vodka than beer because of the volume…</p>

<p>and i remember reading that alcohol metabolizes to some nasty aldehyde for a while :(</p>

<p>and remember im not going to binge drink again :)</p>

<p>dorm walking is like maybe 120 calories seriously its nothing. an hour on the treadmill is only like 400-500, and it’s only like 20 minutes walk and at a slower pace.</p>

24

<p>I haven’t been gaining weight either. I’ve been eating pasta on a semi-daily basis. I alternate fruit juice with soy milk. I make regular rounds to B-Caf in the middle of the night and make the occasional Crossroads trip. I do not exercise. I have lost 2 lbs since the start of the quarter.</p>

25

<p>You know, even if you can keep the pounds off without heading to the gym you should still try to start a regular workout routine. There are still plenty of benefits besides staying thin.</p>

<p>

hooray for good genes!</p>

<p>suckers :D</p>

27

<p>As we learn in phy sci 5, its b etter to be fat and worked out than thin and sedentary :)</p>

28

<p>i’m not sure what sedentary means, but me thinks namaste is making fun of us, fellow good-genes-bearers.</p>

<p>guys i just had a sprinkles cupcake and chipotle. </p>

<p>this is why i practically live at wooden. </p>

<p>well and other reasons. but still. </p>

<p>and bfired- poor you. again. :P</p>

30

<p>well next time just let me know and i can eat your sprinkles cupcake and chipotle for you so you dont have to work it off. :wink: :D</p>

31

<p>b*tch, please. </p>

<p>i hoard that stuff for myself. </p>

<p>wooden is a completely acceptable trade off for cupcakes. especially b/c it ups my chances for running into Boy. i have nooooooo problem with wooden.</p>

32

<p>I can’t wait to get to UCLA, I’m dying to get into wooden.</p>

<p>Right now I don’t have consistent access to a gym(after 2 years of workoing out every single day, I’m going crazy), so i’m going to pay 300 dollars this summer for a 3 month subscription to the local place. Wooden is going to be heaven on earth, free and always open? Unbeatable.</p>

33

<p>no, its not always open.</p>

34

<p>

</p>

<p>$15 per month, open until 12:45 M-Th.</p>

35

<p>Still beats 100 dollars a month, and the hours are better than my summer place.</p>

<p>How fattening is the food?</p>

<p>I weighed over 180 lbs while at UCLA.</p>

<p>When I moved back to Japan, I was around 165 or so.</p>

<p>There’s your answer.</p>

37

<p>@UCLAri O_______O;; Did you still exercise a lot or is that just from not being able to go to the gym all the time.</p>

38

<p>I didn’t exercise nearly enough. But that may have been a consequence of my work and academic schedule.</p>

39

<p>besides, the japanese eat sooooo much better than americans.
not like you were always around pizza, hamburgers, chipotle and cupcakes while you were living in japan ;)</p>
