Fuk all y'all book snobs.


I powered through the Hunger Games trilogy in about 3 weeks. I ❤ u Katniss bby.

I struggled to get through the first one. Thought it was terrible.

Reading Gates of Fire at the moment, it's about the battle at Thermopylae (300). Pretty awesome.

Casey, they drink more than a little

GymJunki; glad to hear things are alright. Your view upon the situation is great as well and I admire you for that. I am not sure if I would be able to look at it that way so soon.
As for blaha, why would he be?

Thanks dude, layne won the case

Pr1mo it was the hot water system not sure if I replied to you

Mango is one of the GOATS, for smoothies.

Strengthening your imagination can also exercise your brain. If you haven't read much I would start with something you find interesting/entertaining to get you started before delving into philosophical novels (IMO).

I know haha I was a very large star wars, lord of the rings, runescape, etc. from preschool to about 7th or 8th grade. I was just joking with the people who go full ape and think their vampires after reading them.

I've given myself over to a full keto diet. I'm finally past the induction(for the most part). So here's the diet today. I actually enjoy this eating style and refeeds have been enjoyable.

@Billy - just go the a bookstore. I just go and go to a section I'm interested in. Read around and pick one(well usually multiples). I've always had a weird ability to pick good books just by cover and description. I don't really know what interests you so it'd be pretty hard to tell you a book to get.

I have always been curious about keto diets and wondered if you had begun one (instagram and your posts here hinted it). I was reading an Lyle McDonald article yesterday and he said that even if you go out of ketosis you don't notice much (after 6+ weeks keto) because your body starts to use ketones regardless. Just my relation lately lol

As for book stores, I can't think of any around me

Check out Terry Pratchett's Discworld series.

IF you guys don't mind sci-fi, fantasy, light reading, here's a couple of reccos;
American Gods by Neil Gaiman
Death Head series by David Gunn
Dresden files series by Jim Butcher
Jack reacher series by Lee Child
harry bosch series by michael conelly

Chicken breasts are $1.77 or $1.88/lb. @ Sam's Club most of the time out here. Hard to beat.@Lee......what made you decide to do keto? Thought you had previously said you would never do it.

Yeah that's about the price @ Wal-mart. But I live in the city so... no wally or sam's in sight. Whenever I get out to my parents place I try to buy chicken in bulk, but I haven't been in awhile. In my head I just can't justify $7 for two chicken breasts (all the time), so whey it is! inb4 the nutrition section rains down on me for not getting all of my protein from food sources

As for book stores, I can't think of any around me

Amazon.com. Type in a book you like (or fits the description of what you're looking for), see what else comes up in the "Others who bought this also bought..."

Going to be quite a SB
wonder what the line on the game will be. Somewhere around 45-50 points total, but offense vs defense will be interesting without a doubt.
That interview....

I get ground turkey(93/7) for 2-2.5/lb depending on if it's on sale.

Hows your energy?

Pasta, always.

The rice is going with the Tilapia tonight for fish tacos

Just came down from 200g/day.

Don't think I'll ever drop back below 150. I love it.

Put in books, maintain your personal library and ratings/tags, several good book recommendation algorithms.

Morning!

@IIFF $65/week? Link to budget for future reference please. xD

Keep in mind that $65 was not for my entire week worth of groceries, that was simply my lunches for the week, as well as probably 5 additional meals worth of left overs that I did not use during prep.

Overall I probably spend a little over $100/week these days for groceries.


Budgeting strategy is quiet easy really.

I set aside $175/week for groceries/eating out/snacks on Sunday, I'll do my grocery shopping for the week on Sunday, whatever is leftover is my funds for going out to eat/snacks at work for the week, on Saturday whatever I have left from the original $175 goes into my savings account and I start the process over again the next day.

Normally I'll have $40-50 leftover at weeks end.

my fat for over 3+ days in one day lol
i dont even think i can get my fat that high on days i have my cheat meal.

80% lean meats and full fat everything for dairy have done wonders.
Also a TBSP or 2 daily of EVOO, either with a shake or tossed on top of a salad/pasta

[The Solution]

oh i feel you on how to get 200g
just i feel awful on high fat, bloated very fast, and my performance/energy in the gym sucks.

Ahh okay, gotcha.

I've tried a higher carb day or two and it just doesn't work for me, I get the same effects you get from higher fat.

[WMLifting]

Iv'e never tried high fats with lower carbs for an extended period of time. Currently my carbs are 450g lol

[themonkay]

Thats pretty much the higher end of where my carbs tend to end up. Could just be in my head, but anything 500+ tends to make me feel sluggish. I used to eat around 550 and would be really lethargic during the day

[illiniStrive]

I think I do some sort of unintentional carb back loading. I find my brain functions better and my thinking is clearer if I consume carbs sparingly (less than 20g usually) till dinner, after I've done all my work for the day.

[Lvisaa2]

A high fat diet shouldn't really cause bloating. If you're lactose intolerant, lots are to varying degrees, and you are eating lots of dairy to get your fat then maybe, but a healthy individual shouldn't be getting bloated from fat

[InItForFitness]

Well, looks like BOB is on the ED train.





Also Lee, got the email and the book, thanks a ton.

Giving everything a thorough read through now.

[WMLifting]

I feel very full after a high fat meal (specifically eggs) and somewhat bloated like bob said as well. Just my .02.

Perhaps due to glucose being stable (I guess that's what you call it, I mix names up)?
I notice this as well.

eggs are known to be one of the more common foods that cause bloating due to a digestive enzyme that many people lack. I'm not saying it's outside the realm of possibility, but I don't think basing it off of a meal is a good gauge. If I eat 300 carbs in meal, I'll bloat and feel like ****. Doesn't mean I can't have a diet that incorporates more fats that will have the same effect. Or if I have a ton of oats and it bloats me.

Well then you learn something new every day. Would this be related to the accusation that eggs cause gas? I hear it being said a lot.
One meal basis nah, however, I will say that a meal heavy in oils/butter makes me feel bloated and full.
I typically get +200g in my last meal so I can't relate lol Oats are my most enjoyable and easy-on-the-gut food, so again I can't relate much.

[lovingit]

I don't think I could live without eggs. Eat them every day! They are filling which is one reason I like them. The other is that they are delicious. :~p Oats bloat me.
