I was in the grocery store recently and I came across the hot dogs. Now keep in mind I'm a big health nut and hot dogs are not the healthiest things in the world to eat due to the fat & sodium. Well I never thought about fat free hot dogs or 'light' hot dogs,which to my surprise were are actually healthy minus the sodium(0-2 grams of fat per dog). Does anyone know anything as to why I shouldn't consume 4-5 hot dogs a day to keep the protein intake up? Anyone ever used hot dogs as part of their diet to gain muscle?
"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"
Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.
You've been "getting ready" for two years.
She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.
Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.
Hot dogs?

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

protein is protein.
I'm a health nut too, and the main reason I stay away from hotdogs is the sodium and the fact that alot of hotdogs are usually eaten avec buns, which are terrible.
I can't think of a reason to stay away from hotdogs if they are low in sodium and fat, although I always prefer a steak or turkey breast.
Check the transfats, and that other crap.
As a rule of thumb, I usually try to steer clear of processed foods...
[edit - hotdogs do contain alot of cholesterol, whether it's good/bad cholesterol I don't know.

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.
"avec buns"? there's a phrase to use in everyday conversation 
there's dozens of better protein sources out there. almost almost heavily processed meats have more of everything nasty in them, including nitrates. should stay away from processed lunchmeats, too.
google 'hot dogs nitrates' (w/o quotes)

wtf is trans fat??? ive never heard of it
"I just moved here from Florida."
That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?
She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."
She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.
I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.
Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
trans fats are an artificial fat that result from processing vegetable oils in such a way as to make them solid at room temperate (this is how Crisco and margarine are made). partial hydrogenation creates these trans fats that occur only in trace amounts in nature, and it turns out that they're probably about the worst sort of fat you can consume, particularly for heart health.
