  • My bestie is a protein bro and he’s 300 pounds at 5 foot 10. Any time he tries losing weight his number one priority is eating enough proteins. Usually he gains weight when he goes on a diet because that makes no sense. I love him to death but I worry about him. Humans eat way too much. I workout 7 or 8 times per week and I eat a lot less than my mom who’s 75, a bad knee and 250 pounds . I worry about her too.

    Make your own food as much as possible, move everyday, slow down on the “am I eating enough” bullshit, have a general idea of your calorie expenditure and intake… It’s not rocket science! it’s mostly being aware of the brain trying to trick us into a sedentary lifestyle. That organ does not care about your long term health; it’s still in caveman mode.


  • I don’t know about that. I used to hate running haha. I remember my first 3km I swore I would never run again. 20 years later it’s my favorite thing in life. I’m not saying it’s for everyone but a little grit sometimes allows us to work out through the challenging bits and reach a fun place. Don’t get hurt or insist if it’s bad for you and all that, so don’t get me wrong…!

    Lost 100 pounds going vegan. 10 years later lost another 15 pounds adopting running as a passion. Ten years later gained 15 pounds becoming a weight lifter. Ten more years after that I weight 185 pounds, body fat 12-15% , feel strong look great. Now I added triathlons to my routine.

    It’s both nutrition and staying active. We’re such lazy animals that we have to fight our impulse to sit still and eat silly … Who knew that the key is having a healthy, active lifestyle…




  • Fully agree. I love my gf to pieces and for her traveling is what makes her, her. She’s a minimalist consumer and talks about the environment all the time and bikes everywhere. She knows that flying polutes enormously but she can’t help it. I like endurance sports and I find enough excitement right here around home and within let’s say a 250km radius. She travels alone 3 weeks per year and she says she needs more. I stopped trying to figure it out.






  • I mean it’s a car located in Canada, with a Canadian saying don’t buy American. The car itself doesn’t mean anything to me. We could imagine that the driver bought the car oblivious to its American origin, but it’s not what came to mind in my case. I just thought fuck yeah where can I get that sticker for MY Chevy, and; is it printed in the USA? (Wouldn’t put it past those cocksucking leaches)
