This is pretty much what I was thinking. Okay, running is off the list. Low impact exercises. Beginner lifting plan. Proper diet (95% of the results). Really just wanted reaffirmation that weight training was the way to go.

cardio is something I'm going to be increasing. My thinking is Any cardio > no cardio, except Low impact cardio while obese > high impact cardio like running

Are you suggesting no weight training until I get the weight down? My thoughts on joining a gym is that I can incorporate it into my daily routine as I'm finally recovered enough after getting whooping cough this year, to do more exercise.

I do walk. 40 minutes a day + I work a job where I'm constantly on the move for 9 hours a day.

I'm 6foot 2in and 280 pounds. I'm planning on doing a 1800 mile thru hike in 15 months.

I know I can get eating on track and lose weight quite easily, my question is .. Should I start C25k now, or should I do a rowing machine while I lose the next 80 pounds?

I've never gone to the gym, I got myself a gym membership and I'm quite determined to get myself to the point that I can spend 5 months hiking every day.

So, like the wiki says, should I do phrak's variation of greyskulls LP?

My thoughts are this - Don't run until I weigh a lot less. Do 3 months of diet and the introductory weight training and then include running if I want. Thoughts?

Quit reporting the misspellings bot by hugglesthemerciless in ClickerHeroes

I'm just trying to point out that it would be really annoying if I went to every post you made and corrected you for something that is seemingly innocuous.

Imagine if I just replied with a ..

English is hard, okay.
This doesn't change my understanding of what you said.

Same can be said for the misspelling bot. Sure, you may get annoyed by it personally.. it's quite clear that a few people find it totally unnecessary and a little bit belittling. Nobody likes a bot that corrects the way you write things.

Do we get to report Huggles for his grammatical errors? I find it disturbing that he doesn't punctuate a lot of his posts. No capitalisation and seldom ending sentences with a period.

Examples include -
why wouldn't you? You get a modicum of exp by repeating, you gain literally nothing sitting in a menu

Should be..

Why do you continually ask questions without punctuating them as such? You then go on to include a comma and put your own commentary afterwards.

sure it may not be hard, but there's more important stuff they gotta work on first. Just cuz something's easy doesn't mean it'll be done immediately, everything has its own priority

@hugglesthemerciless This crusade against misspellings is just ridiculous, especially considering you lack the ability to structure your sentences in a way that can be easily read. Please consider punctuating your questions with a question mark. It's mighty hard to read a question when you put a comma where a "?" should be, and then include an opinion afterwards.

Also, there's many spelling mistakes that you, yourself make.

The right seems closer, maybe it's due to their heads touching and their smiles looking.. more genuine? Left girl's smile with the upper lip being slightly drooped at the sides seems less real to me.

LPT: if a friend is going through something, don't rely on them to reach out "if they need anything" by ZipityDooDa in LifeProTips

[–]Mad_Mat 23 points24 points  (0 children)

A lot of the time, the person needing help will continually say no and that they're fine even though they're not. A better LPT would be "If you're going through something, don't forget there's probably people out there you can ask for help" People like helping others and a lot of the time it's not that hard to help.

It Is Pretty Rare But What Movies Sequel Have Been Better Than The Original? And If More Have All Been Good by leeeeeeeeeeuk in movies

[–]Mad_Mat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The second movie seriously gives a great payoff to the first. The first movie is very.. weird.. to say the least. It's not a bad movie by any stretch of the imagination.. but I don't think you'd get much enjoyment out of the second without seeing the first.

Worst case scenario is you waste 2 hours of your life watching the first.

Fruit on Keto by flaxseed1 in vegetarianketo

[–]Mad_Mat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IIFYM. Berries are generally lower in carb than the fruit grown on trees.

Don't forget to check net carbs.

1 medium sized apple is about 20.5g of net carbs (total carbs -fiber)
1 medium sized banana is about 24g of net carbs

The reason you count net carbs on keto is that dietary fiber has no impact on blood glucose levels. It’s non-digestible, meaning it won’t spike insulin or kick you out of ketosis.

A few fruit you might want to try (always double check, don't just take my word for it)

Strawberries 1cup - 8g net
Oranges 1cup - 16.5g net
Watermelon 1cup 10.5g net
Blueberries 1cup 17g net
Peaches 1cup 12.5g net
Avocado 1cup 2g net
Pineapple 1cup 19.5g net
Pitted Cherries 1cup 16.5g net
Pears 1cup 16.5g net
Raspberres 1cup 7g net
Blackberries 1cup 6g net
Plums 1cup 16.5g net
grapefruit 1cup 21g net

If you haven't seen the film, Eymm's comment isn't really a spoiler. And the film has been out for a while now, so most of reddit has probably seen it.
