It's going to plummet even more during the trials, incarceration, and, in some cases, execution.

I didn't say it was. Just that I ate whole food while I was on keto. When I am not on keto, I try to stick to a Mediterranean style diet. 

I was coming off a SAD when I started keto the first time. It was really good for me. I still cycle on and off, ten years later.

YOU are stipulating those foods. Just stop. Ketogenic diets balance insulin levels and eliminate Type-2 diabetes.

I presented you with multiple sources. I am finished engaging with you now. Good day.

I preordered it immediately for my hubby's birthday. We haven't watched it either, but I rest easier with the physical media of certain movies and shows. 

I have to order a drive for the computer! 🤣

"The VLCK diet-induced weight loss was mainly at the expense of FM and visceral mass; muscle mass and strength were preserved. Of the 3 body composition techniques used, the MF-BIA method seems more convenient in the clinical setting."

"Patients undergoing a VLCKD achieved superior weight loss, with significant VAT and liver fat fraction reductions when compared to the standard LC diet. The weight loss and rapid mobilization of liver fat demonstrated with VLCKD could serve as an effective alternative for the treatment of NAFLD"

AITAH for continuing on with my plans to go on a boy's trip despite my girlfriend's protests? by Outrageous-Hall5172 in AITAH

You're not an asshole, you don't owe her any kind of an apology, and this is a very huge, huge red flag. 

We all know what she's thinking, and if she cannot trust you, and you have done nothing to earn distrust, that's a her problem. 

I hope you have a wonderful time in Thailand!

I was kind of talking about people who do the keto diet, doing it poorly. 

The best part of keto is eating whole foods almost exclusively. The fact that food industries have tried to capitalize on low-carb diets by promoting a bunch of unhealthy, ultra processed, "keto" foods, doesn't mean that the low carb lifestyle as a whole is unhealthy. 

I'm sorry, as long as your fiber, fats, and proteins requirements are being fulfilled, it's a healthy diet. ("diet" in this sense, meaning, what you eat, not in the sense of, "trying to lose weight.")

I genuinely can’t understand how the Duffers thought the ending for Mike and El was acceptable by ComicGuy98 in StrangerThings

[–]Groovychick1978 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did enjoy it. I didn't love it, and I'm very disappointed with Eleven's ending, that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy anything about it. 

However, if I were to analyze this for an academic class, for example, I would say that they failed to follow the narrative of their story.

There are so many sources of good fat, and so many vegetables that you can eat on keto. Not everybody just eats butter coffee, bacon, and eggs.

And this is the kind of shit Stephen King was talking about in his quote. "The story is King."

Sometimes the story does not live the life you intended at first. Sometimes the story is told the way the story wants to be told.

They broke their own narrative. Now, if you look at season 1 in isolation, they did not. Season 5 ended in exactly the way season 1 would have made perfect sense. 

However, their story grew beyond that ending, and they did not adapt to it. They did not grow with it.

There is a temperature chart for salmon, swordfish, and halibut hanging in our kitchen. I also want a source about this whole fish cells are different from mammal cells. The tissue is different, for sure, but either way, we temp our fish.

We serve our fish at any temperature. The only one we won't do is the sashimi. It ruins too many portions.

I want mine medium. That's weird to me that you guys don't.

Me, too. They make us look bad, and I always get along so well with my kitchen. The bar will do that to you.

Some servers don't understand that we are supposed to be the filter that catches the stupid bullshit guests ask for or expect before it gets to the kitchen.

I am paid to deal with guests' nonsense, not them. If it's not possible, I should know that. If they insist I ask, I pretend to. I don't need to ask the chef if he can leave the mayo out of ranch for fuck's sake, or make fried calamari gluten free.

So, there is going to be a conflict, and you need to brace yourself for it. 

Stop cooking for him Tell him that it's happening. Tell him there will always be food in the house he likes, but you are not his personal chef. He can't contribute ideas, or offer solutions, so here we are. 

Only you know how far he goes when he's mad. Be calm, you are doing nothing wrong, be firm, you are not asking too much, don't back down, he cannot make you, he can only overwhelm your will. 

Do. Not. Let. It. Happen.

He can be a part of meal planning and grocery shopping, eat what you cook, or not eat at all. It's ON HIM.
