Ordering a salad = Pretentious Ordering a burger = Normal Normal beat the hell out the the Pretentious. The end.

I actually hate kale and I am not a veggie, so I do eat bacon - but on special occasions, not every day. Everything in moderation. Yep stock it is, wait till i recover from my knee injury then I will have one taken...lol

Talk about weird looks you get! And comments.

But you also should keep your comments about your bacon being better than my salad, just because I dont lift. Same coin, two sides ya' know.

I wonder what the landlord going to say If we install a pole in our house? LOL One day I will give it a go, bruises and all.

That's my point, how is strength training better than clean eating or better or worse than cardio? Just for a laugh... Pole dancing is cool though.

The problem is that people feel entitled to comment on your food, especially when you are going out - and especially if it is a bunch of friends who choose to target your eating choices as lunch time conversation every single time. I dont comment on theirs? I guess would be much worse if i was a vegetarian, THEN I would…

Sorry dude, if you with your heavy lifting cant outrun me in a long distance race... all your lifting is just meh together with bacon... LOL

You dont need to say a word, you pass as 'holier-than thou'. Just order a salad instead of a burger. :o)

Yep.

apriltrainer I dont tell you to go and laze on the couch instead of lifting? I mean dude EVERYONE is lazing about and perfectly fit and healthy. What, you think you better than everyone cos you are lifting? :o) So why is it ok to say the same thing about food? I hope you do get the joke.

That's the wholepoint? Do you feel you have less perfect lifestyle when someone says they make own bread?? Obviously one does not NEED to do all this to make healthy choices in life. But the people feel they are ENTITLED to actually jump on someone and say they are conescending, arrogant, etc because you dont order a pizza…

The problem is that I do not SAY how I eat - when me and friends go out they see what I order and just comment in a nasty way. I have posted here to give an example. I obviously do not lecture on THEIR choices they are grown up people - smokers also know it is bad to smoke. Like Doh!

No time is grown up equivalent of dog ate my homework. ;) You MAKE time for what is important. That's exactly how my mom cooked - working two shifts as a surgeon with 2 kids and unhelpful brat of a husband ( glad she ditched him!). Yep. No excuses for me, I had a good example.

Hmmm, yeah I think a lot of people feel threatened by someone actually having healthy eating habits and so they say that they eat what they want and drink and smoke and never see a doctor and that i will die healthy while they are having all the fun. I normally say that it is the same as their driving without a seat belt…

Sounds like you are overestimating camories burned. Do you use HRM? I had EXACT same issue - I always eat clean, no junk/processes, lots of lean protein + fruit and veg. I did 3 months of excercises like 45 min intervals + yoga, + 3 times a week running. Tracked my diet of between 1300-1800 ( did one month online dieta dn…

I think I have missed them! :) Will keep eyes peeled and will report any sneaky hobbitses!

Welcome back! Do you have specific nutrition/exercise plan you are going to follow? MFP is lots of fun!!! You can totally do it! *Big hug*

Shamepies. Poor you.

Your Problem.

I am not worried about trivial things - I call them 'Poison' because they are exactly that. Toxic and addictive! So I just dont buy anything pre-made and enjoy my home-made clean REAL food, made from scratch. The way it is supposed to be. One day I will live on my own farm and freaking grow all the food myself. Yep just…

Holy Molly! Sitting on the online forums instead of enjoying some wholesome activity, like creative pursuits, walking in the fresh air is a weakness. Switch that device off and start living life. Easy. Not.

What's wrong with junk? Have you looked at ingredients of all that? Like all the flavourants, colourants, preservatives, flavour enhances - all what belongs in a chemical lab and not in one's stomach. Does strawberry fizzy drink have anything to do with strawberries? 10 to 1 not. BBQ Beef chips? I think not. Strangely…

Sigh I agree on the sodium! I dont care for the cakes, just give me my salty spicy savory snacks, chips, pickles, you name it! :(

I think I know how you feel! I never buy any snacks or unhealthy food. But because I am so strick with what I am eating - when someone brings me a HUGE bag of chips I will eat it on my own! We have family visiting every month with a TON of food I woud never buy and I find it impossible to resist - it's like it's only once…

Hi Folks! I have been doing it for a while so just started Workout 11 today (doing the 12th tomorrow) I think I might do it longer than 2 weeks though, as it is very challenging for me. So thought I come and hang out with you here. Anybody still doing the BR?

I try to switch - allows the muscles to restore, heal micro tears and rest.

You can do it every day. UNLESS you are doing something else in between. Like Running ( points to herself). (Or other muscle taxing cardio).

Hi there! Depends on what sort of exercises you are going to do. if you are going to sit and do bicep curls you need heaver weight. If you are going to be doing compound moves - like squat + front v raises chances are 5s will be enough. If you lie on your mat on your stomach and do 'supermans' that is lift your straight…
