Have no idea what you're talking about.

So eating crap food doesn't contribute to health care cost? Harvard says differently: Full article: https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/obesity-prevention-source/obesity-causes/#:~:text=lower%20the%20risk.-,Unhealthy%20Diets,the%20largest%20roles%20in%20obesity. I didn't say anything about probation. I would propose a high…

Eat crunchy vegetables in place of chips. Better for you and generally lower cost.

Check your posture. Many people have anterior pelvic tilt which makes otherwise thin people look like they have a fat stomach. Graphic from the article linked: https://www.baptisthealth.com/blog/sports-medicine/anterior-pelvic-tilt#:~:text=Anterior%20pelvic%20tilt%20is%20a,can%20cause%20various%20health%20problems.

Nobody is telling you what you can or can't eat. Just if you choose to eat crap foods you contribute to health care costs associated with them. Just like nobody tells people they can't drink alcohol, they are just taxed on it.

Well isn't that too bad, people didn't like it. Do we as society want to pay the health costs of buckets of soft drinks and other crap foods? I sure don't. You do an excise tax paid by the manufacturer (which will be passed to the consumer, like alcohol) based on the grams of added sugar per serving. Pretty easy.

LIft 6 days a week M-S, alternating upper and lower body. Then some form of cardio later in the day and on Sundays. Not especially hungry after working out, thirsty though. Drink water or 0 Sugar Gatorade.

IMO if someone has to label themselves as an "influencer" they're not worth the powder to blow them to h#ll. Also if, by chance, they have some good information, they're not going on the cheap and recording in a public gym.

No taxes if you don't consume the product. Just like alcohol and tobacco. Frozen veggies are generally very low cost and guess what, no added sugar. Fine if you don't like $0.25 per gram, call it $0.10. Or maybe the manufacturer gets rid of the obscene amount of sugar in a 12 oz Coke (novel idea). The point is to make it…

An excise tax paid by the manufacturer to to government, same as currently done with alcohol and tobacco products. As you suggest, pretty much a user fee.

Here is a picture of the testing of Gatorade at the University of Florida. What looks like a 230 pound or so college football player at practice drinking maybe 6-8 ounces. I had Gatorade back in the 70's it was great for replacing electrolytes but didn't taste very good. Now parents sent a liter bottle of full calorie…

We have to face facts there are s#itty foods. Many times I see on these forums there are no bad foods. News flash, there are. How do we fix this? How about a $0.25 tax on each gram of added sugar in a serving of a food? Would get the ball rolling

My gym has a 25 yard long piece of turf and a sled to push on it (as well as using the space for farmers carries, walking lunges etc). People, including those working with a trainer, will set up on the turf to do floor work, even though there is 20 feet of open space on either side of the turf, specifically for floor work.

I won't lift in your recording studio, you don't record in my gym. Case closed

Are you and the members of you community willing to pay more for lunches and/or more in taxes to support better lunches? If not it's a non-starter.

One of the most studied supplements out there, got for it. Only downside, check with your doctor if being treated for kidney issues.

I didn't demonize anything. My suggestion was to ask him to keep them out of the house until you develop appropriate habits. Is he buying these things or are you making them? Should not be an issue for a loving spouse to help his partner. If you feel you can't ask him, yes then therapy may be appropriate.

You can't "ban" them but you can ask your husband to support you by not bringing them into the house, or hiding them and eating them out of your sight. At least until you develop appropriate habits. This is a health issue for you and I would expect he would support your efforts to live a healthy lifestyle. Good luck.

They can't sell books or get clicks if the "advice" doesn't change.

Sorry you are going through this. Do you have a physical therapist you're working out. Might be the best source since they will know what sort of limitations you have as you recover.

I posted this in another thread today on motivation I steal a comment on motivation from Dan John, a former educator, world class trainer, and Olympic lifter. He, like me is in his 60's. His (and my motivation) is to dance with our granddaughters at their wedding (and we don't want them to be teen brides). Our…

In most places in the US,one can call themselves a nutritionist with no training whatsoever, you want a Registered Dietitian which requires a Master's Degree and passing an exam. Timing of food intake is a pretty small part of nutrition (unless there is some health issue involved, diabetes as an example). As suggested,…

My kids are out of the house but I agree with this. For years I was at the gym when the door opened at 5AM to workout for an hours or so before going to work. At 5AM generally nobody wants you for anything. After work you can concentrate on the family.

@AnnPT77 has some good ideas/points, I'm around her age. I steal a comment on motivation from Dan John, a former educator, world class trainer, and Olympic lifter. He, like me is in his 60's. His (and my motivation) is to dance with our granddaughters at their wedding (and we don't want them to be teen brides). Our…

And look what the health of the typical American has done in the last 50 years, gone down the toilet.

The above is correct. Probably not being a weekend warrior is the best answer.

Would tend to agree, but then we have this: "The CDC found that only 10 percent of adults were eating the recommended servings of vegetables, with 12.3 percent eating the recommended servings of fruit." Full article:…

Where is the fiber that helps you poop like a regular (no pun intended) person?

If you're napping instead of working out when you get home, go to the gym.

Not my post, but looked at the programs. Ideally, for most people, one wants to hit the major muscle groups 2-3 times a week, emphasizing compound lifts, with at least 48 hours between sessions for the same muscle group. The programs posted fit the bill. The Pallof press mentioned is an "anti-rotation (core) exercise.…
