I don't know much about MSG either. All I know is that the, arguably, best pasta place in NYC uses it. Was kind of shocking when I found out, but maybe it's not so bad, hmm...

Like everything, you have to use in moderation. It's actually not as bad for you as you would think. Pretty sure there was a study that came out within the last two years stating just that. Or maybe I'm just trying to mitigate the fact that I grew up with a mom that used it in everything.Life is a hiiighway

its used pretty much everywhere, soy sauce, many spice blends/mixes, seasonings and dressings, potato chips, frozen foods...
trying to avoid it is impossible, but imo the concerns associated with it are nonsense. it has been tested extensively around the world and there are no actual health risks. some reading: http://www.absoluteastronomy.com/top...dium_glutamate"AVANT GUARDE HIGHEST FASHION. NOW NOW this is it people, these are the brands no one fucking knows and people are like WTF. they do everything by hand in their freaking secret basement and shit."

excessive use of MSG on a dish makes the flavor turn into a somewhat bitter kind of sweet (not the subtle kind like you get in chocolates...but more like it's so sweet your mouth goes numb and you get this pretty horrid bitterness on your palate). It also causes dehydration and insomnia at certain levels.

Hi Zamb,
I've gone from a big size 52 to a true/slightly less than size 48 since February: I was 92kg/202lbs and currently weigh about 73kg/161lbs, height 5'8".
While I exercise religiously every other day, IMHO you don't take the drastic measure of abandoning meat. Personally I've found that if you want to get lean, the equation is very simple: you simply subtract calories out from calories in.
Eating well doesn't mean denying yourself, it's just adhering to some (very simple) rules. I would say that the only thing I've stopped taking completely are carbonated soft drinks, I still have non-diet tonic water to mix with gin but thats about it. I use butter, drink alcohol, use cream and eat cake (http://adrianozumbo.com/patisserie.html - Sydney's best!) regularly.An object in possession seldom retains the same charm that it had in pursuit.

/\ congrats, that's quite an achievement. I agree, without exercising, dieting is kinda futile (not always, but usually).Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months - Oscar Wilde

Exercise helps immensely if you're glued to the PC all day like I am - I don't imagine anyone who walks/cycles to work or just plain moves around during their workday would have problems shedding the pounds just by adjusting their diet.
It's not a coincidence that my weight loss finally got started in earnest when I changed my eating habits and used more recipes like chili that makes me feel satisfied without having to eat lots. I've always told anyone who asks me about my secret to success that eating well is 70% of the work, exercise is a walk in the park in comparison.
P.S. I think the sole caveat of my transformation is that I currently do not have a wide variety of dishes in my cooking repertoire, luckily I do not mind eating the same thing cooked fresh on a daily basis.An object in possession seldom retains the same charm that it had in pursuit.

As soon as I see a sales price with +paypal fees, I ignore the listing. I just can't help it. Add money to your asking price. Don't be such a shit.Last edited by theetruscan; 10-16-2009, 08:22 AM.Hobo: We all dress up.
