Rachel of America 💯

Hello new followers! Allow me to introduce my journey. Spent most my life as a crash dieting weight yoyo. ~7yrs ago I dropped 1/4 my body weight and have maintained it since. My current focus is low carb and lifting for symptom management of recently diagnosed health conditions.

Packed a lunch for tomorrow.

I've been told it's good to eat a variety of colors so I've decided to pair blue corn tortillas with my green chile sauce.

@BowTiedFawn I always order my food white girl spicy. I feel like NOBS fits as appropriately white girl spicy.

When people complain the mint in NOBS is too strong

@CountryTasha86 If you make your food ugly it's less likely to get swiped by other people. "Are those cookies?" "No, it's caca, you don't want any."

Really needed a snack after my nap. PB powder, vanilla protein powder, coconut, eggs, and truvia. Did I eat 3 already with milk? Yes, I did…. Definitely not bad since I’m no Betty Crocker. 😅

@notadvice If I cared about material I think I'd hate shopping, but as long as it's comfortable I don't care if my clothes put plastic in my blood so I'm not super helpful for where to shop. A lot of my clothes come from Amazon. 😬

@RAScott324 I honestly have no idea where to go anymore. I hate everything I see online, anything local is plastic… what are we doing anymore? I think I’m too picky but I don’t want to buy investment pieces I hate?

It’s nearly 90 Freedom Degrees and I’m just now realizing I have approximately two pairs of shorts and no sundresses. FML

Finally realized I could just turn on notifications for @barbarianfitco rather than checking multiple times a day to see if the dad hats have dropped yet.

@BBSchizo777 The correct response to this is, "Are you Finnish? Because I'm done here."

What in the world was this response

@BBSchizo777 @Floridagirl0850 The fact that they make phallic-shaped weights for women is a whole other issue for a different day, lol.

@RAScott324 @Floridagirl0850 I looked deeper and idk if that’s really a girl and it looks like shes holding a dildo 😂

The most overused word used by women is toned. It doesn't mean what they think it means.

@oliveegger @Floridagirl0850 Ok

@RAScott324 @Floridagirl0850 Yes. I said that because people like to act like the only way to build muscle and strength is heavy weight when it’s not depending on the goal, genetics and starting point

@DigitalFringed1 Have them with 1/4c cottage cheese and there's your 6g protein for only 45 calories. Or I guess you could make a yogurt dip for folks who don't like their dairy products chunky.

@RAScott324 Agreed. Regular sourdough pretzels are like 90 cals with 0 fat. These aren't really the best macros.

Got a recommendation to try these Anyone have these before? I've tried multiple protein pretzel brands and they've all been terrible

@oliveegger @Floridagirl0850 Right, you brought up dancers and how they get toned without using weights, which is why I pointed out how much time and effort it would take to get the same results.

@RAScott324 @Floridagirl0850 The goal wasn’t to be toned like a dancer. I don’t think she ever implied that. The goal is to get in a quick workout that makes you feel good as an average person lol

Because dancers' bodies still require a much higher intensity than a few 10min workouts with tiny weights. The point being made in the comment you quoted was that the videos aren't effective training, and if the goal is to be toned like a dancer then they're not effective training for that either.

@Floridagirl0850 @RAScott324 Okay so how does any of this negate what I said lol

@Whiskeytagofox I've done rucks and similar things in the past, but that'll have to be later if I can kick this migraine.

@RAScott324 No movies today Instead do a Murph for em

No cookouts or camping trips over here today, just a visit to the cemetery and coffee with a veteran friend who gave me a book to read that was written about one of his deployments. Now I'm debating what military movie(s) I'll watch today.

@Advocacy_tech But do you do humor though?

@RAScott324 I’m a girl and do math. MSc in mathematics to be correct. Kg is lb x 2.2

Everything is in kg and I have no idea what's going on. And don't you dare come at me with conversions, I'm a girl, I don't math.

All I'm saying is if you don't want your Bop-It high score beat, then don't let Aunt Rachel play it.
