I think I'm going to stop doing keto. I don't think I'm losing any weight .
Different diets can work for different people, I'm sure you'll find one that's right for you ^^
Keep up exercise though, that's important
I favour a high protein/fibre diet
More muscles you have the more calories per day you burn by default as well
Yeah I need to work out
I hope the gym let's me join
I work out at a cheap local gym.
@Uberduperdrew from what I've heard, the amount of food you eat and eating less carbs and sugar is definitely the way to go. Don't be tempted to remove carbs altogether though. I hear dropping all sugar intake and reducing red meat helps. Especially avoid bacon.
About all you can eat is meat and cheese on that diet
@Uberduperdrew on Keto? I'm not familiar with it, but I'd avoid cheese like the plague. It's almost solid fat.
Lots of green veg will help.
Lots of fluids too, so you feel full - but not smoothies, they're just empty sugar.
Low fat yoghurt and fruit is a good snack - but only if it's plain as the fruit or flavoured ones have lots of sugar. As do 'low fat' foods. Sugar is the main problem, as far as I've seen.
@everyone I've found you can add icons to channels in the Discord. If that's something you like or hate, let me know. I've added a couple as tests to see what people think. the full list of icons we can use is here: http://www.unicode.org/emoji/charts/full-emoji-list.html
I was thinking of 🚀 for <#515481742052818945>
Not every channel would have an icon - mostly just the ones in Chillout to give them a bit of flavour.
Eh, I guess it makes it interesting xD
I'm at a nice rest stop in North Carolina http://imgur.com/a/DdgcHVZ
Very nice!
is it wrong that I feel proud justification over the latest Gilette financial news? I mean I just feel super happy all those naysayers that said their negative ad campaign had no impact on their bottom line are all wrong
its one of those "I told you so!" moments that I feel guilty indulging in
Haha, I don’t blame you for indulging in it.
Being happy that sexism doesn't bring profit to people in a certain situation is a good thing
I suppose I should frame it 'faith in humanity restored'
Eh, I wouldn't have that much faith, it's a problem that they felt it would be acceptable and the number of supporters it had
right now I'm just waiting for the truth behind the Captain Marvel numbers to come out
You mean Disney buying out theatres to exaggerate numbers?
yes, yes I do
I had a discussion with someone yesterday who said it wasnt sexist that brie Larson said 'I don't care about what a white male thinks' (or something to that effect) in regards to any review, because 'people don't have a right to comment on a culture/experience they haven't had'
I'm confused how those two statements connect
She was saying that their opinion doesn't matter because they couldn't possibly understand what the film was about
that seems like a common goto excuse for movies that are very badly received
Brie Larson made comments like that about A Wrinkle In Time
which was a garbage production
Yes, that specific quote comes from that review for it
I don't get it though. She didn't seem to understand that someone's sex and skin colour doesn't determine their life experiences or how valuable their opinion and thoughts are. I could have pressed it further but honestly didn't want to since it was a friend of a friend
the idea that A Wrinkle In Time is gated for only a certain type of people is so far from Madeleine L'Engle's vision its disturbing
shes the author of the book
I wasn't really debating how valid the review was or how bad the film was or anything like that, just that Brie Larson is a sexist
oh yes
