Bro is fucking living in China during the famine, what the fuck
Are you taking this picture from your bunker?
This is the most depressing lighting I’ve ever seen.
Seriously, it looks like your taking this picture from The Backrooms.
Seriously do you need a hug? Or some cheffing? If you’re near los angeles, i can just show up and mix some cheap-ass spices for you.
I never understood why all the gym people I see in work seem to eat food with the flavour removed, like some paprika or pepper might ruin everything.
I thought that was mashed potatoes.
You know there’s no calories in normal seasoning?
Tasty food gives dopamine. Dopamine gives you motivation to do stuff.
You’re just unnecessarily doing it on hard mode without at least some pepper
Edit: also halve the rice and triple the broccoli
It’s like 5 calories of broccoli with all those nutrients, but like 350 of basically empty carbs.
Carbs are required for muscle building.
Ah, depression.
Gymbro bodysculpt enthusiasts are wild. They won’t have tasty meals because they don’t want food to be associated with pleasure, only fuel.
Maybe it works, maybe its a clever brain hack, but I suspect its from the same pseuds that brought us nofap
Theres a gym bro at my work who eats the same meals everyday. Its something like plain oatmeal, protein shake, boiled chicken, greek yogurt. Every day, no seasoning, all plain and boring. He was complaining to me that he has to almost force himself to eat sometimes and im just thinking like “yeah no shit, you eat wall paste every meal”.
I mean i meal prep my lunches, been over 10 years, updated it once recently. Rice, refried black beans, corn, sweet onion, green pepper. Everyday for lunch. I think it’s tasty and being able to eat the same thing everyday for years is what makes me a great partner lol
Meh. Everything in moderation. Including self-imposed suffering. Sleep late. Eat tasty food. Have days where you just exist. Fuel is for cars.
It does make those cheat days 100x more special though.
Sounds like self-inflicted stockholm syndrome, tbh.
I will come to your residence and cook for you. I can make something tasty and healthy. Please don’t do this to yourself, I’m having a hard time not driving off a cliff due to witnessing this. I would be upset, but I’m too sad and disturbed. At least, the very least, black pepper. I’m begging you.
Saaaaame. I will feed you good healthy food and it won’t even be sxpensive. I’ll show you how to make it. Fuck, i’ll show you how to put a couple pots and a grow light in your kitchen so you always have some fucking electrolyte heavy veggies to snack on.
Is this a general offer? Because that offer sounds kind of incredible.
I mean, with the economy the way it is, there’s some stipulations, but technically yes lol
How much do you charge for just general friendship?
That part is free, generally
Great! I look forward to our friendship.
When I was in Chicago went to my Mexican friend’s house for home cooked Mexican! Yeah. Looked like that.
Wife: “Ed’s guts can’t take spicy.”
Shoot me.
The dual-use of the English “spice” (ground minerals used to improve flavor) and “spice” (substances that cause food to taste hot and intense) leads to many unfortunate losses of potential flavor.
Ed needs to suck it up for the sake of all that is Mexican.
Seriously. And you will very quickly get used to it. Like you wouldn’t believe what happened to me when I started making red lentil dal on the regular, but after a while, my bowel movements went back to regular and no more “ring of fire.”
This picture oozes such self-loathing it’s concerning.
When you’re a fatty, loathing is at an all time high. I was never fat, but I’ve lost 20 lbs since February eating pretty similar to this
If you were never fat, why are you trying to lose 20+ pounds?
I was 6 ft and 200 lbs. Not obese by any stretch. Trying to lose the dad bod and get back to where I was before I retired from field work.
My goal is to actually be leaner than that, now that I actually have time to pay attention to fitness and diet.
I’ll tell you that for most people it’s less about food intake and more about physical exertion.
I’m not saying eat cake for every meal but as long as you’re burning more calories than you’re taking in that’s all that matters unless you have underlying health conditions. Keep being you but just exert yourself more. Work until failure.
I say this with love as a person who has struggled with dysmorphia and has taken several steps to overcome it.
This is absolutely terrible advice. It takes an insane amount of physical activity to burn the calories of a meal, and being in a deficit will make you feel hungry regardless.
The majority of people need to worry about putting down their fork, not doing more physical activities
Like 10% of our calories that we burn come from exercise - the rest is just keeping the lights on, so if you want to be in a deficit, you need to eat less.
Abs are made in the kitchen.
That’s… exactly what I said? You need to burn more calories than you consume. But that means putting in the work to do so.
U R whatcha 8
Dude, that plate is upside down! The vegetables! So much carbs!
Cutting what? Money? Flavor? Health? Or happiness?
I can’t get over the broccoli portion!! I eat 20 times that!
Once during the early pandemic, I inadvertently received 12 pounds of frozen broccoli from a grocery delivery (~5,5 kilos). I have never been too full for a piece of broccoli, and didn’t have the space in my freezer for all of it, so I decided to make a huge amount and see how much I could actually eat.
I made 6 pounds (roasted with spices and a little olive oil) and ate it all without issue. I honestly could have eaten more, but I was a little worried about causing myself digestive issues. I didn’t have any, even though doing the math, I was over 4% broccoli afterwards.
I’m cutting as well, and this plate is scarily similar to where I’ve landed for my meal prep. Pretty much chicken and rice, but I at least do a rub or marinade.
I mean, boiled breast? Eeewww! There are so many other better ways of making it!
Most prisons serve better meals than this
I bet most have gyms as well.
Bro doesn’t shit for weeks at a time.
