What!? I've recently started a high protein, high calorie regimen, tracking my intake, and I have yet to achieve the recommended 2,660 target. In fact 2,300 is my usual daily intake, even on days like today when I have a 560 calorie protein smoothie after a workout. Wtf are you eating?

I think Mrs BD would divorce me if I ate at Taco Bell.

I don't count calories. I doubt I go much over 2000 most days. After I lost those 14 pounds almost a year ago, I've been holding steady in the 170-172 range without trying. One of these days i'm gonna shoot for 166.

I'm not a big fan of Mexican food, but I do Chipotle when I want some.

Chipotle is good. As you might expect we are surrounded by very good Mexican food. Probably 30% of our meals are some variant of Mexican utilizing grilled chicken or fish. There are a lot of healthier options - not all of it is cheese enchiladas and refried beans although the unhealthy options are very tasty. The killer is the pre-meal basket of chips. Usually have to tell the waiter no gracias on those.

I'm struggling with it. Yesterday I went on a football-induced culinary rampage - 700 calories in snacks, including tortilla chips, peanuts, a beer and pistachios. Still only totaled 1,700 calories for the whole day.

My biggest downfall is snacking, which is a consequence of being a night owl. If I went to bed earlier, I'd eat less, plus I'd also probably recover better. But I get sucked into starting to watch movies after 10 PM. And I still have to get up in the morning...

Wichita is a completely unremarkable town but people from there are perplexingly fiercely proud of it.
Another well-regarded regional chain with local roots is Braum's Ice Cream which started in Emporia, KS in the 50s under another name. Now it's headquartered in Oklahoma and they refuse to open chains that are more than a one-day drive from their dairy in OK, so basically 300 miles. It's kinda like Culver's but further south.
I also enjoy Culvers but the local franchise stopped giving free ice cream for dogs at the drive through (even though I was ordering regular meals so it wasn't exactly free) so I stopped going because Dairy Queen and Sonic still have ice cream for dogs. It's a fun treat for them.

Not unremarkable at all. These two came from there.
