Winter savory?

semi sweet morsels one handful(yes I may be under counting this item) and Jif peanut butter

Is this for the first quarter of the year? 80km's?!? Are you training for something? Okay, seriously, hats off. I officially considered running today. Tomorrow looks better. I'll lift today

More food choices then when I was growing up. superfood lists are great to garner interest, sell magazines, but I would need to make kale chips to eat it regularly. Tried it in smoothies and just wasn't my bag. Spinach is my friend. Kale for some reason is the red headed step child. Let me oil it, bake it, then maybe.

Kobe beef?!? And they chant to the lads.....

Never really got a boost of energy from coconut oil but then I wasn't consuming 1/3 to 1/2 of my calories using BPC or whey products. I wonder when people figure out their low carb, MCT, Coconut oil, whey, effect their insulin response do they suddenly switch to the next great energy boosting product? IDK, seems like…

Have you tried beet greens?!? Clean off the dirt and they taste like dust. Packed full of stuff. What stuff?!? IDK, but it has stuff.

I have no problem with the tan, but the hair loss?!? Yikes. Nope. Sorry OP, not for me.

OP----see above. mcaros and settings for personal goals makes sense. P and F are mini's for many and carbs are the rubberband....some days it stretches for more, other days it is less. Hit your P and F mini's and let carbs be flexible. Now, the bigger question is......what should P and F be?!?!?!?!?!?

Well, for feeding oodles of people(think world pop) they may be essential. Unless, maybe everyone ought to switch to high fat diets for fuel. Are you shorting the coconut futures in the hopes of making money? Do you own dairy cows and want to impact the markets? Have you heard of Michael Milken?!?!? (ironic last name given…

Context is critical when discussing something via the interwebz. Cannot see the posters facial expressions, body language, etc. I forget the %age of communication is non-verbal but it is high. I was responding to the poster I quoted then saw your post later. I do not think it will crash the site. I am not, not a licensed…

Baseball players and sunflower seeds. So, chewing and spitting is fairly common. Seriously though, they do it for the ensuing boredom and the 'meat' of the seed. I doubt many are doing it for the taste. Then again.....

Beets, turnips, parsnips, white potato, sweet potato........like this?

I think I misquoted you but was responding to someone else in the thread about the advantages of fat over carbs. Each elite I speak to , or have had a meal with, never compromise carbs and performance. I think if fat had any role in being superior we'd heard of it by now.

So, gum is bad?

Should there be a thread dedicated to things 100% Gospel with a listing of said items? I have one or two. I am not allowed to start this thread, but you can.

Was the sluggish afternoon slump when you had the old scale and 9 pounds heavier? Just curious.

Again, I think you'd be hard pressed to find any athlete who is elite to not be using carbs as their primary fuel. Athletes want fuel for their workouts, pre and post, none have been mentioned in this thread or any thread who eat LC consistently and who perform at a high level. It is a non-starter in terms of comparison.

Aspects of cholesterol are a risk factor. There is no one factor that is THE factor with cvd or cad. Hence, the 1% on your information.

I think there was a marathoner who qualified for the Olympics with a 2:42 run for his country. On the surface it sounds impressive. An Olympian running on keto or LC. The problem was the time. A local guy last year ran a 2:42 in Michigan? I think to win a marathon. Next day his buddy drove him to a neighboring state and he…

Label reading yesterday in the PB aisle. The natural Jif and regular (leaded) Jif had the same fat grams I think, is the sugar less? I ended with Nature's Promise for the Iron. 4% Iron in 2 TBSP. Unfortunately, I need 25 servings to hit the Iron 100% DV. At 210 calories a serving, is 5,250 calories too much for one item?

There have only been a few people who have tracked their BF changes using several methods on MFP. For some reason, when I saw their charts, the Bio-scale, measuring, pictures, calipers, military measuring, and bod pods were all very close to each other. So, a few photos, a tape measure and scale would be an option.

Maybe, eventually, the hormonal issue is addressed along with nutrient triggers. Then again, maybe getting down that road is going to take longer and more money.

Reading through the book and highlighting certain areas for perspective and clarity he doesn't or hasn't in the first 100 pages discussed just moving after a meal. The GI and insulin sensitive foods he mentions seem to avoid discussing protein and their effect on rapid insulin response versus say a piece of white bread. He…

I made a sort of pancake and vegetable something something with it. I forget the name. I wasn't disappointed with the taste or texture though. I'm sure I'd need to experiment with recipes to find what I could consistently eat and enjoy.

In the event bees unionized they could strike. So, people would eat more sugar......the horror. So, keep unemployment low, maintain non-union shops of worker bees and avoid sugar. Phew.

We talking sangiovese grapes? Paired with a cheese perhaps? Olives?

Yes OP you can walk a 5k. Whether it is local or part of a 4 day progressive series you can walk.

What about garbanzo bean flour?

I officially like Sarah.
