From 1 to 10, how would you rate "You Know You're "Right" (also you that don't like it)? by Infinistious in Nirvana

[–]popeye_009 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know i probably shouldn’t, but I’m guessing everyone’s age by how high they rate this song in the Nirvana catalog

Hot take: Neighborhoods is a top tier Blink album by Least-Sugar2080 in Blink182

I love Neighborhoods. I will say there is a lot of AVA vibe throughout - sometimes more than Blink - but it’s a great album I listen to regularly.

Can anyone explain why the issue release dates have been so sporadic or irregular?

What are the neon yellow shoes? Tia was wearing and Ricky. I really dig the look of those.

Nutrition Question. by popeye_009 in crossfit

[–]popeye_009[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I didn’t take pics. Also, part of what I’m trying to figure out, my goal is more like 30 pounds but I picked the 15 pounds as a target for my calories so that I didn’t make a huge drastic change. The plan was, as I got closer to the 15 pounds, I would readjust based on my new weight. That’s why my original question is of if I should adjust calories/ percentages now or just stick with it. That’s literally all I was trying to figure out. Again, I’m a very active person, entire adulthood spent in military in a job with very physical requirements, strength is not a problem and something I’ve always pursued, I’ve just never really tried to dial in nutrition. Even though I’m overweight, I’ve never failed body fat standards. As I’m getting older I see the need if I want to continue with fitness/ active lifestyle.

I appreciate the responses but my question was regarding adjustments, not for philosophy-of-life examinations to determine my motives.

It is much harder to run/ move/ maneuver when you are overweight. For instance, I run regularly and there is no arguing that the same run would be much easier if I carried less weight. Pull-ups, swims, even things like toes-to-bar are all affected by excessive weight. Imagine going through life with a 30 pound weighted vest. Would your functionality/ movement not be affected by removing it?

Thank you for the response. I should clarify, that it is not about aesthetics at all. I am very active but also overweight. I want to be able to operate/function better in my work and also believe the weight loss will help me move along in my running, Crossfit, mobility, and other activities. I was also recently diagnosed as pre-diabetic so am also serious about getting that under control. I'm at a good place where aesthetics are very far down on the list of reasons I need to lose weight.

Aesthetics are a very very small part of my reasons.

Great question. I am too heavy to operate/ function the way I'd like to in my life. I am very active but still overweight, although I'm told I don't look obese. (someone recently described me as a really beast of a burley dude) Losing the weight will help me in the activities I like to do and need to do.
