If you like buffets then eventually you'll meet someone at the buffet, if you like books then you'll meet someone at the library. Just live and let be then you'll find exactly what you need
Good post. Now if there were only combination library/buffets...

Of course it's common for people to feel guilty for overeating or for gaining weight.
Does anyone ever feel guilty for NOT overeating? Or NOT gaining?

How often do you guys do this meetup? I'm not in the Bay Area but I'm in Sacramento so I'm close enough. Would love to attend the next one if I'm able. Sometimes the online community isn't enough, it would be nice to get together with other feedists in person.
We've been having them every three months or so but we're going to start having them more often. You should email me at
rfeeder@gmail.com'>drfeeder@gmail.com and get on the mailing list if you're interested.

I'd do it but it would take too much prep, and I don't like banana splits.
Have your feeder do the prep! And you may substitute some other 600-calorie item for the banana split.

Meet-up was very nice. Five men, two women, all-you-can-eat Asian food. Hard to top!

Out of interest, what are your opinions when it comes to men identifying as feminists (not just as sympathisers/allies etc)? I remember being involved in a conversation with a few feminist and otherwise sympathetic friends on facebook and the conclusion seemed to be that it could be a bit problematic. As a man, calling myself a feminist is a bit like calling myself a great lover or talented composer: it's not for me to say, it's for others to decide or recognise. As it is, I am very sympathetic to feminism and my opinion of people generally increases when they express feminist sentiment.
Feminism is not a talent--it's just belief in a certain principle. It can be a hard principle to fight for or live by but simply believing in it is pretty easy.

I'm confused. You say you've fallen in love with #2 completely.
Pick the one you're in love with completely.

I am a feminist, and I agree: It just means I believe in equal rights and privileges for women.
Some people have tried to turn feminism into something else, taking the banner of feminism and putting it on their pet cause or philosophy. This has caused a lot of confusion as to what feminism actually is and turned people away from it. This is unfortunate.

A while back my grandpa asked to use my computer. I was in auto pilot, my mind preoccupied in other things I was doing at the time and said he could. I swiveled my head in horror as I realized that the FF photos section would greet him as soon as he jiggled the mouse... A page full of beautiful bellies, and hanging man boobs gave him a happy hello. (lol Not so happy in his case.) I turned around in silence and continued what I was doing. (*Side-note* my grandpa is a badass ex navy seal who does kick boxing regularly and really into fitness)
So yeah this was was bit awkward lol. We never spoke about it and just pretended it never happened. When I got back to my computer it FF was exited out of.
LOL. Don't worry, ex-Navy Seals have plenty of secrets of their own, enough to respect yours.

I wonder what causes plateaus. Like why would eating 5-6k a day for an entire week suddenly result in zero gain - where do all those extra calories go? Does the metabolism increase for that week or something? I'm so curious about this sort of thing.
I'm pretty sure you just poop them out. Your digestive system goes hey, I'm busy, I'll pass...and the food scoots right by (with some modification of course).
