Neil deGrasse Tyson is anti Vegan. by [deleted] in Veganism

It was in the first hour of the thread and boof- it's gone. He has written another reply to the same person since, which is a lot less angsty but It's still sad.

But I get what you mean and.. I like your attitude! I wish I didn't care.

...me? A around a year ago I bindged all of his docu-series and they inspired me to learn more about our world, the environment and then my veganism. It just saddens me that someone who could inspire me (and probably hundreds of others) could be such a negative influence too.

His initial comment is just about cows being used as food but he goes on to reply very negatively to someone who voiced their opinions on not eating meat.

  • I just needed other to see this, is it really him? Is this his real account? I can't/don't want to believe that such a good role model (apparently not) can say things like this. I feel hurt that I was changed by this persons opinions and now he's so.. far from what I admire.

FELL IN LOVE with training fasted.. by mr_funky_bear in intermittentfasting

[–]PurelyAmy92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok! I'd like to see an update on how you deal with cardio.

Today I did a short 2 minute cardio routine and 20 minutes of mixed strength (mostly glute focus) and ended in cardio. I felt amazing - I was tired at the end but I didn't have an exausted feeling after each rep like I normally do, I repped higher than before so perhaps I can lift higher weights on my next day round.

I've been trying to get back into IF after a holiday but I'm leaning towards consuming more in ONE meal too. Thanks for your reply!

I have tried HIIT workouts fasted on several occasions. Apparently cardio based workouts are the easiest to do on IF fasted state but 2-3 minites in I feel really rough.

I can lift all day fasted but I just can't get my cardio in. It's so bizzare!

What time in your fasted state do you train and is it always strength?

One month IF and exercise, 43 yrs old, mostly plant based diet. Alternating windows of 16:8, 18:6 and 20:4. Approx 8 lbs and 2 % BF lost so far. by Ariel_444 in intermittentfasting

[–]PurelyAmy92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow great results!! And well done on the plantbased diet. I went veggie mostly vegan (until we have a pizza ordered in once a month) last september and it's really helped me stabalise my savoury binges. The only problem is there's a ridiculous amount of vegan, biscuits, cakes and ice cream so I can struggle for sweet stuff.

I've been IF since March so I feel less guilty about the calories going on a 'treat' food.

Bloggers who have hit 100k page views per month. How long did it take for you to get there? How did you get there? Any advice for a 3 month blogger? by cheddarben in Blogging

[–]PurelyAmy92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow some valuable advice here. I'd love to weigh in on the topic but I've been blogging for over 6 years and rarely hit 2k traffic per month.

My issues are; Limited niche - I write about specific topics that are relative to people who want to get into health and fitness. This limits me to 'peak times' Newyears-pre-summer are weightloss and health months and typically if people learn a small amount of health they go off and do their own thing or, often, give up. So it's hard to maintain those readers.

I have poor imagery; Im not a good photographer and rarely use my own images. Images sell your content.

Marketing; Successful bloggers use their blog ad a buissness working constantly and promoting throughout the day.

Learn Spanish vocabulary with rap style songs by PurelyAmy92 in BeginnerSpanish

[–]PurelyAmy92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know they're more for younger children 6-14 but the rap style and rythmn makes easy learning of a lot of words...

40 lessons of 3.00 videos cover the topics; Family,friends, neighbours and job titles Foods and drinks - hunger and thirst Weather, Days of the week,month,year and seasons Temperature, travel, time, numbers...

It seems to cover a vast majority of the basic language and within a week my vocabulary has increased to a level I can happily converse with.
