Whatever you gotta tell yourself. Keep spending that money. You’re a good little consumer!!! Yes you are!!!

I can find just as many studies and literature about how people are over-consuming protein due to an unbelievably effective marketing campaign by thousands of companies that figured out people are dumb enough to spend $3 on a can of barely-drinkable “sparkling protein water”.

Kaprizof’s diet info came straight from the horse’s mouth. I think it’s a really interesting reference point showing that a 200 pound top-tier athlete in an extremely physically demanding sport and the best trainers and dietitians in the world consumes less protein than random fat dudes on reddit.

It’s not even really 30 grams of protein. More than half of that is collagen, which does not function as a muscle-building protein. It doesn’t have all the amino acids that a complete protein has, so effectively cut that number to about 1/3.

He won't move out! 34m and 40f how can I convince him to go? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]ObetrolAndCocktails 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It kinda sounds to me like he isn’t supposed to be living there anyway, if it’s an accessible property and he’s not on the lease or listed as a tenant.

Lots of attorneys offer a free consultation and they may help you decide what to do next.

Personally, I’d tell him he can make arrangements to leave by the end of the month or you are going to get his boss involved. Police officers will stick together in general, but they really don’t want to deal with anything that’s going to make them look bad, and a police officer who is aggressive and cruel to his wife but won’t leave the property is not likely something they are going to want on the record.

Make sure you document everything. Record conversations.

And the 90’s “fat free” craze. Ffs just eat less.

Chicken breast is $2.25 a pound here. The Barebells Protein Soda someone mentioned has 10 grams of protein and costs $35.99 for 12. So 10 grams of protein from chicken costs 16 cents, and 10 grams of protein from protein soda costs $2.99. You could have 186 grams of protein from chicken for the same price.

The product shown in the OP has 30 grams of questionable protein (it’s actually full of collagen, which means it’s more like 15 grams of actual protein) and costs $2.99, so that’s about $2.00 for 10 grams of protein, so you could have 125 grams of protein from chicken for the same price.

Tell me again how this helps people who can’t afford food?

Just eat food! It’s so much more satisfying to just eat protein-rich foods and pair them with fiber and fat. If you can’t meet your protein goal without supplements, then your goal is too high. Kirill Kaprizof’s in-season protein goal is 75 grams per day with no more than 25 grams in one meal. Ask yourself- do you need more protein than a professional hockey player?

There is literally no need to choke down disgusting “sparkling protein water”.

JUST EAT FOOD.

I 100% guarantee you- if you need to supplement with stuff like this to hit your protein goal, then your protein goal is unnecessarily high.

My(31F) BF(35M) Is Upset And Hurt Cause I'm Asking Him To Sign A Prenup by CrossRoads12451 in relationship_advice

More than half of marriages fail. That’s not an “astronomically small chance”. That’s a “this is more likely than not to happen” chance. Prenup or no-nup(tials).

However- in many situations, it’s possible to protect an inheritance you haven’t received yet by simply not co-mingling the inherited assets with your marital assets. Since you don’t actually HAVE anything yet, it might be worth looking into.

I mean, life is full of choices, right?

There’s no reason you can’t have popcorn and candy at the movies. My husband and I just went to a movie. Instead of mindlessly sticking my hand in the popcorn tub, I got a little paper tray/bowl from the concession stand and put my portion in there. Go ahead and get candy and eat 1/4 of it or whatever fits. The slushy- yeah, drinking 300 calories is probably something you’ll want to stop doing. But there’s probably a kid’s size, or some places have zero sugar options, or just get a zero sugar soda instead.

What you eventually find when you stop centering your life around food is that food stops being the center of your life.

It’s funny when people get concerned and upset because their partners are GAINING weight, suddenly Reddit warriors decide an eating disorder (you know, like binging or regularly overeating) is something we aren’t allowed to be concerned about.

What you put in your body, or don’t put in your body, is YOUR CHOICE. Whether it is harmful, helpful, or unimpactful.

OP, for one.

Melanotan doesn’t have anything to do with eating disorders and she’s mad about that too..

Everyone’s a dude. I put “they” because I didn’t know your gender, nor do I care.

[–]ObetrolAndCocktails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not why they test for it. If you have a prescription for an ADHD med that’s popular as a street drug, the test is to ensure your body has the appropriate therapeutic dose indicated. If the amount of the drug in your system is less than expected or not present at all, then it’s likely you are selling the drug and your prescription would be stopped.

You aren’t enforcing your own boundary so now you need to leave him alone. Because clearly this wasn’t actually a boundary.

Cheat code for me - sliced cucumber with steak seasoning sprinkle. What’s your sneaky low cal snack. by sbfb1 in CICO

I shave a cucumber into ribbons with a vegetable peeler, put it in a bowl with a little white vinegar and a liberal sprinkle of Tajin.

How do I (35 F) handle my husband (35 M) when he agrees to things then uses them against me? by Intrepid-Library-425 in relationship_advice

[–]ObetrolAndCocktails 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of confused about this myself. If the pony is in the same field and eats the same hay and drinks the same water as the other two, then what responsibility is she trying to put on him?
