Why am I saying everyone has an eating disorder? (3)

[illiniStrive]

When people have different opinions heads clash and it turns into an argument. There are a handful of threads that have gone down that road. Remember the Paleo thread?

nope, i tend to avoid the main section a lot

granted, mob mentality veers towards extremes, and is almost unavoidable in a forum setting like this one. but when so many threads end up being about patronizing the OP and making them feel like an idiot (when in a lot of cases they've done nothing to prove they deserve it other than not knowing something) than yeah, i gotta check out. if it was really about being pedagogical (versus the online equivalent puffing out one's chest), alienating the OP is the last thing someone would want to do

Well I would agree, it's not right to start demeaning the OP when they are just looking for help. You can tell which posts are legit and which ones are just someone try to be a smart ass. The way I look at it is we all started somewhere.

Hence why the MMDELAD thread was created. A nice, calm discussion of nutrition topics, backed by scientific journals.

well if you can, i'll just say that as a collective, a lot of the Nutrition section, well, can't.

again, painting with broad strokes here. obv not everyone in LF gives bad advice, not everyone in supps is looking for the magic pill or looking to make a quick buck, not everyone in misc is a human pustule, not everyone in the nutrition section has a god complex, etc.

if i had to name two the most quality sections in this forum though, it'd have be FBB and Ov35.

The most quality section is obviously this one:

dude ^^ misc thread there is awesome. I am posting link twice for your benefit lol.

Edit: Once you are good at it, shaving will take you no time at all, so dont worry about it. I only ever use it if I need a shave for an occasion, so its usually very light stubble I shave over with it, unless I have time for multiple passes. Other than that its the quattro or the clippers lol.

You have piqued my interest. I have been looking to go to a safety razor for a while now to save money on blades.

They both have their... idiosyncrasies. The LF overall tends to give terrible advice (especially to women; brb telling a 135lb active woman to diet on 1100 calories), but the main Nutrition section isn't exactly akin to a Mensa meeting either. Both sections could afford to have some people talk less and lift more

True, but you would be surprised how much this thread is like one, lol.

@deadpool.

Did you try the arnold protein?

[deadpool9]

@deadpool.

Did you try the arnold protein?

Yes, had my first shake this morning. I mixed it with milk, going to try with water tomorrow and write up a review.
But if you are looking for a quick opinion: it is thick and tastes great.

It's been gloomy other than a few random days since I got here. Had a few good beach days though and it's still pretty warm.

Afternoon kents and kents

4 more hours of work.

It's date #3 for me this evening and trying to figure out a way to top these last two...

Any ideas?

Good afternoon.

I am not familiar with Michigan at all, but I always say do something uniqiue to your location.

For example, me and my girlfriend have both been itching to do a nice bike/horse and buggy ride through scenic bethlehem,pa. That seems like fun.
Always a safe bet.

I have some ideas but I don't know as they would really be appropriate considering it's so cold out.

[deadpool9]

Not at all. It is just a whey protein, no blend of casein (which is what usually makes them grainy). It is probably about the thickest shake I have ever had through. I mixed it with 8oz of 2% milk, and it was like drinking a milkshake. If you have ever tried Myofusion, it is thicker than that. I want to see how it tastes/mixes with water, as it may have a different result.
Given how good it tastes, I may pick up a tub of vanilla while it is on sale. (Currently 20% off here, and then use a 10% off coupon brings a 5lb container down to about $35).

I've been doing mixes for so long i forget whey alone doesn't have this thing!

Will try, was just debating to try cellucor first but must see.

Did you tell her you love her yet?

I realize that love is a very powerful word but I am just curious as to what stage you guys are at. Again, I realize that it's only been three dates, but everyone's different.

I have some ideas but I don't know as they would really be appropriate considering it's so cold out.

Do people actually say I love you on the third date and mean it? Even if I feel strongly for someone immediately, that's not a word that I think should be taken lightly. You may feel as though it could become love, but your third date?

Casey, do you have a date planned and just want something special to do? If so, don't. IMO, no reason to force special things. If you think of something or it happens in the moment, then do it. But some of the best times are those where it is completely normal. If you're looking for a date idea, then I don't know what you have around you since I think you said it's a pretty small town.

I like the idea, I'm the same way...I always like to do something that you may not be able to do somewhere else.

Previous two dates have been relatively relaxing/intimate...so I'm thinking about switching it up this time and possibly going on a late evening snowmobile tour around the local area and packing a quick/snack picnic for us.

Just curious to see some other suggestions though.

Nope, it'll be a long time before those words are said...well I guess I don't know for sure as far as time...but they are never said unless absolutely sure.

Nothing real specific, a couple of ideas, just curious to see what others had in mind.
I'm always a "something special" type of person I guess, I just don't enjoy "typical" dates/evenings, but every now and again an evening just relaxing together isn't too bad.

Unfortunately options are pretty limited in the area with there not being any real places of entertainment...movie theatre, couple of restaurants, and a roller rink...that's about it.

So most dates/nights out have to be something creative.

This may sound cliche, but what part of her personality do you like?
For example my girlfriend (and me too) are basically kids at heart and like watching animated movies and such (despicable me 2, frozen)...maybe try that...a movie that isn't the most common?

Sometimes a nice double date is good too / going out to a bar with her.

Thats the motto.

[health4life24]

I realize there is a difference between saying you love someone and actually meaning it. I would question Casey if he had told her he loved her, because how can you know if you truly love someone after only three dates?

Just curious that's all.

Ice skating. Nothing is better to impress a girl than repeatedly falling on your ass. It's open and easy. Come back to warm up with dinner and a glass of wine. Or even cook dinner with her. I always liked cooking together.
