Fat Rice was a Macanese restaurant located in the Logan Square neighborhood of Chicago. It operated from 2012[1] to 2020. The restaurant was known for its arroz gordo dish, which translates as "fat rice".[1] Then-head chef Abraham Conlon once claimed Fat Rice is the "only restaurant in the world" to serve the dish.
i will miss that dish dearly.

Probably nothing. I ate lunch at 1:00 — nothing substantial, just a turkey wrap — and I feel like I never want to eat again. Don’t know why but I’m getting really full, really easily as of late. Maybe it’s an age thing?

i had something similar happen a few years ago...it started because i had put on a ton of weight that year and never felt like cooking so i was eating fast food out almost every evening, so i decided to either not eat dinner at all or just eat very light - yogurt, fruit, and such...i can't remember how long i did this, but i didn't feel much different over all either
