Dubiouis Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Guys, would you really have a problem with that. I've stuffed myself a bunch of times but I hardly ever gained any pounds. Anyway last date I was in, it was on a buffet. My date was surprised that I didn't served myself salad nor too much veggies but meats, fried fish, chinese rice and basically anything I could find. I think I repeated 4 plates, 2-3 soups and finally the desserts. Another time I ate half of a large pizza box and finished it rather quickly. Though one guy seemed slightly disgusted. Is that really a dealbreaker to many guys? Or just some?
Author Dubiouis Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 Then if someone invites me whether it's a friend, family member, etc and asks me ''Would you like some more'', unless I don't like the food my answer will always be yes. If someone puts a plate full of chicken or meats and I see a big one, I'll get that one. That's the only thing about me. I'm totally myself when it comes to food. I can't pretend to eat less nor slowly nor get salad; I hate salad.
veggirl Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 4 plates!? That just sounds gluttonous. I'd be turned off. I like a guy who eats healthfully with the occasional treat. 2
kassy Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 It might be off putting to some. Health is not the same as weight. Your diet sounds like a heart attack on a plate. 2
nescafe1982 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 It might be off putting to some. Health is not the same as weight. Your diet sounds like a heart attack on a plate. This. The types of food you listed, not just the quantities, would make me think twice about whether you value your health. 2
veggirl Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Your cholesterol must be through the roof! Yikes. I think any health minded man would be turned off. There are lots of piggy eater men out there too tho.
Author Dubiouis Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 4 plates!? That just sounds gluttonous. I'd be turned off. I like a guy who eats healthfully with the occasional treat.I guess I was very, very hungry and they had my favorite dishes too.
thefooloftheyear Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 If you arent heavy I dont see a problem..But thats the stuff you usually do when you are together for a while..You wouldnt cut a fart in front of him on the first date, would you? Kinda the same deal.. After a while it doesnt really matter... TFY
Phantom888 Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I actually like women with a healthy appetite. I eat A LOT for my size, so I appreciate a woman who likes to eat. I would prefer that she eats "some" healthy stuff, but not a requirement.
Andy_K Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 It depends if you're overweight, if you exercise or calorie count, etc. I'd happily date someone who was very health & fitness conscious but binged on occasion. Everyone's got to relax sometimes. However if it was more of a general attitude & happened frequently, then yes it's a dealbreaker. Because even if you're in good health/shape now you wouldn't be in a few years down the line. I'm massively into health & fitness so my opinion may not be reflective of the general population, who would likely be more forgiving 1
Lansing Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Too be honest, it would depend what you look like If you are super thin then I would just assume that you have a good metabolism or work out a lot. However, I would probably be a bit concerned that you aren't taking any healthy options at all (like veggies/etc). If you are a larger girl, I might think "wow, she doesn't really care for herself" and think you aren't making an effort to be healthier and it could be a turn off vs. if I saw a girl who I perceived as a bit overweight trying to make efforts to cut down... Also, I might think it comes down to self control and that it may apply to other aspects of your life too. Having said all of that, I recently went out with this girl (not a date, more of a new acquaintance) to a party there there was a TON of food and she hardly ate anything and really had no desire to try anything. That was kind of a turn off for me too because I wouldn't want to date a girl that was a super picky eater.

soccerrprp Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 4 plates!? That just sounds gluttonous. I'd be turned off. I like a guy who eats healthfully with the occasional treat. I would be turned off too. I'm a vegetarian, no problem you eating the meat, but that much?!?!?! I can already see that we would have lifestyles that would not be healthy for either of us.
clia Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 There is a huge difference between having a healthy appetite and eating 4 plates of food, 2-3 soups, and dessert at a buffet. That is a massive amount of food. Have you been medically checked out? It doesn't seem normal to require that amount of food unless you are a 13 year old boy going through a growth spurt. 3
Lansing Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 BTW, your post reminds me of this girl... Maybe you should consider becoming a competitive food eater
SmileFace Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I don't think it actually matters what she looks like. I wouldn't care if someone looked healthy and ate all that crap. I will be turned off -- I won't say it is a deal breaker since I date guys like this all the time.
KathyM Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 With that kind of appetite, men are probably going to wonder what will happen when your metabolism slows down, and what effects that kind of diet are going to have on your health. I would suggest, for your own health reasons, try to limit yourself to more healthy proportions and more healthy foods. Do you know what was the reason why my father was so impressed by my mother on their first date? It was not because she was beautiful and sweet, although she was, but because she ordered the least expensive thing on the menu, and because of that, he realized she was not going to be high maintenance, and it also showed her caring in not wanting to have him spend a lot of money. That was really endearing to him, and he talked about that throughout his life as being something that really attracted him to her. Gluttony is not attractive to men usually, even if you are not currently gaining weight because of it. 4
thefooloftheyear Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Now most people that know me are suprise that I can fit that much. I'm 5'8, 134 Ibs. I'm a guy that outweighs you by 75 lbs and am all muscle..Thats more food than I can consume at a sitting by a fair amount.. Not to get gross, but then I start to think...Good God, she must tear up a bathroom like no one.. TFY 7
MidwestUSA Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Well, at least you won't have to worry about putting out on a first date. 1
soccerrprp Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Wouldn't matter to me, all I care about is how you look today. I won't be around when/if you start gaining weight/developing health problems. You must be your mother's pride and joy. 1
soccerrprp Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Indeed I am. My mother was big on personal responsibility. If my date is hot today that's all that matters today, the OP asked about a date, not a long term relationship. My apologies, Erich. I though for a moment that you were trying to be a jack-wagon. I jumped the gun and thought perhaps you were the type that would bail on his SO as soon as trouble reared its head. Thanks for the clarification.
Eclypse Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Well on my first date with my now girlfriend we went to a semi expensive resteraunt. She's a very tiny girl and barely ate half of her plate, so of course I offered to help and devoured it all. It's a mentality I have. I don't like seeing food go to waste (particularly food I paid for!). She didnt seem to mind. These days she jokes about me having a cavernous appetite and eating her food. It's all in good fun though. She says she'll have to cook lots of food when we get married. But... 4 plates + dessert is a lot. I am athletic and active so I need a lot of food but I can barely eat two plates. One is usually sufficient unless I'm starving. I am impressed. I wouldn't call you a walking heart attack though. If your body is healthy your cholesterol will regulate itself. One can't go wrong with some juicy meat. Of course make sure you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables (peaches and tomatoes are my favourites)!
runningfar Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 You having an abnormally high metabolism and not gaining weight doesn't make it not off putting. I'm sure it won't disgust every guy, but some. I'd be disgusted if I saw that type of food and quantities on a date (if it was a lot of healthy food, not so much- I'd assume it was needed) I asked my boyfriend, and granted self selecting group - and he said he'd prefer a girl who was chubby but health conscious to a girl who stays thin but seems not to care.
FitChick Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 If you are still growing you might be able to get away with that. But if you are over 21, you might be hyperthyroid. Anyone in your family have thyroid problems? Get blood tests. I used to know a very thin girl in college who would pile her multiple plates high with food and eat very quickly, not seeming to enjoy the experience. She later threw it all up. So I'd think you were bulimic.

She later threw it all up. So I'd think you were bulimic. My gf is extremely thin (90ish pounds) and always piles her plate full, and barely dents it. She gets me to eat the rest :|
