This is how it feels when you see a loved one eating seed oils

I swear every steroid bodybuilder has:
1. TOFI abdomen (Thin Outside, Fat Inside), indicating huge visceral fat.
2. All skin in brown spots of some sort.
You see it too?

@SeedOilDsrspctr I see first hand that American kids are rejecting it, even when freely available through family funds, in surprising numbers.
English
I heard some American kids are calling college “uni” now. Is this true?
English
@exfatloss Agreed.
The trick to changing habits, kicking addiction isn't willpower. It's seeing why something is bad for you and not wanting it anymore.
English
Willpower doesn't exist. Yet to meet someone who has any.

“If you rely on willpower to do the right thing, you will lose.” - @bryan_johnson aka Moon Brah David Goggins types, while admirable, advise to increase willpower. How many people can take such advice and spontaneously become stronger? Few. Bryan Johnson’s advice is much more effective in my view. If there is a system to achieve health that works, why exclude those who struggle with willpower? Willpower is easier to gain once healthy. You cannot bestow a stranger with willpower, but you can give them a system. For a diet to work, it’s important that it’s tasty.

Hate to admit it, but ex115salmon is freaking delicious. MUCH better than the stupid sardines. Using wild caught Alaskan sockeye.

Their enthusiasm for their WOE and skepticism of the standard messages makes them morally bad?
But credentialed people who literally back, 100% of the time, industry and the central message are somehow morally "good"?
So our opinion on excessive linoleic acid reflects our general moral behavior, possibly?
Interesting

@ZKForTre What do you expect from the keto zealots? It’s par for the course. They are not good people.
English
This is frankly great advice, and the fact that the low carb and anti-pharma people who are suggesting that this is some nefarious handshake between the ADA and Novo Nordisk (or insert corporate boogy man of choice) are out of control.

Do you salt your scrambled eggs before or after cooking? I can’t decide which is better because I can taste the salt better when I salt after.

Special occasions call for extra special cakes, made with butter and a whole lot of love ❤️

@ScepticalDoctor Some of them were rather inspirational, though.
The new round of vegan ",leaders" much less so as health isn't the primary driving point of the message.

What is something you are convinced people are just pretending to enjoy?
English
Coffee can be animal based if the beans were eaten and shit out by those weird cats in Madagascar.

If you're not popping blood vessels in your eye on leg day, are you even lifting?

This is why not all ribeyes are created equal. These two ribeyes came from the same loin, but from opposite ends. The top one has lots of spinalis muscle and better intramuscular marbling. The bottom one will be firmer and hit more like a New York strip.
Which do you prefer?

@mikeoniron @exfatloss I used to be obese, but since getting lean I hang around ~11% body fat, with non trivial body weight fluctuations from lifting, not lifting in streaks
English
I've lost 100lbs by accident before. Good luck convincing me of setpoints or CICO.

Just remembering the rats in forced swimming experiments. At baseline, they would give up in minutes and drown, thinking there is no way out. If they saw another rat escape, they’d swim for many hours. Sometimes all you need is to talk to another rat who has escaped.
English
@SergiEscanes Hmm, it should be over by a week. I base that just on experience and refer to the physical symptoms.
The memory of thinking a cup would be nice right about now endures, though.
English
LMAO “fruits & vegetables” enjoyers hardest hit
English
"But it's not sustainable!", whine all the dieticians who can't cure obesity.
