You conflated an instantaneous consequence with an average over time consequence, in order to call someone else dumb. People aren't talking about eating a lot of sugar once, they're talking about eating a lot of it over time, which would why diabetes is called a CHRONIC illness. Lol no one eats sugar in "sensible" amounts…

So one of the things I don't see people talking about with sugar consumption side effects: 1. The fact that even if you lift and exercise regularly, particularly for endurance running, and use the sugar spike from a Gu to avoid hitting the Wall in a marathon, those people have done a total 180 on carbing up in the…

Wow! You must be REALLY fit! That's awesome. I can't wait to get back to lifting when the gyms open up again; the pushups are wreaking havoc on my shoulder. I find it so interesting that at the same height there's a radical size difference, this thread is pretty cool for that.

I used to eat or go to a boyfriend for affection or call a friend for stress, I didn't realize I lived my life at SUCH a high level of freak out and was really high strung. Now I manage it by running most days (if I can do it without damaging my knees), cleaning my apartment, or studying languages (cause I'm a nerd who…

I would agree, granted I've only lost 8lbs thus far (sustainable loss it's not water weight), but I would say I've been on the MFP app before and super obsessed with my calories, When really I just needed to embrace struggling through being hungry, and make sure I eat enough calories to make sure I don't get to a point…

That's so interesting, because at that 196 weight (im a little under 5'9"), I wear a US size 16, and at 165 I wear a 10. And I would say that my fat distribution is enviable because it's very uniform and accentuates my hourglass figure. Do you have big bones?

My goal weight is 140lbs. I am 5'8.5", it would be 135 but I put on muscle really easily (and fat), so in the months it's going to take me to get there I expect to get that much in gainz. I'm 8lbs of this quarantine fat down! But I'm also 24 and I like distance running: I want to protect my knees as much as possible by…

You probably get this a lot, but beans and lentils are some of the leanest proteins out there. I recommend starting breakfast with old fashioned oatmeal, as it has a low GI and a solid amount of protein. Tofu has more fat in it but also has a lot of protein. Also soy milk has a lot of protein, 7 grams for 8 fl oz at 80…
