I do the same, looking at my working weights and %s keeps me going when I have a day that I just completely forget how to lift.

I’ve never tried it, somehow the fake blood aspect is so much grosser than the real blood aspect of actual meat.  (I know it’s not actually blood, but it looks like it is)

Oh, I’ve had cricket protein, they were selling cricket based protein bars in a competition I was at! It’s also environmentally sustainable, you can raise a ton of crickets in a tiny space.

I see what you are saying, back when Nastia Liukin was competing in the Olympics I remember the gymnasts all being very skinny looking compared to today’s competitors. 

I love watching her in competition and the practice workkouts she posts on instagram sometimes. I’m a pretty mediocre crossfit participant who can barely string together 2 muscle ups, which is considered a pretty high level among the average adult and is not even a considered element in gymnastics - the level of…

Next up: Lab grown meat. Would you eat it? Yes/No: and WHY?

ohhh nutella would be so good.  I like that idea!

So messy.

I’m generally a pro-cooking anti-baking person; mostly due to my skill and how much you can improvise / not have the correct ingredients and have your dis turn out good. But that cinnamon roll recipe is tempting.

Thank you for this concise response to this sentiment. I hear a whole lot about First Nations people in my part of the world, and this is a great answer to the “get over it” attitude.

I say this in the hypothetical world where this moment was kept private and we didn’t even know it happened: I’m really bad with forgiveness and moving on. I obsess and stew and it’s not a great way to live. So I can appreciate and hope that Brandt offers forgiveness because that’s what he feels and needs himself.

yeah, humans are far too gross for this to ever be anything I’d consider.

I worked at a beach side fancy-ish restaurant too, and my manager would eat people’s leftovers. I was really disgusted someone didn’t eat basically a whole order of crab. It was still inside the shell, so that one made complete sense.

Wine tastings (I’ve never been to any other types of tastings) are the one place I’ll scavenge like that.

I feel bad in hindsight for people who had such serious aversions to foods but were forced to eat them by parents who just thought they were being picky and should get over it.  

Textures bother me so much with foods, especially veggies. I barely cook them (basically just heat them up) because of it, because I do like them, but I find slimy foods so gross.

Ha I just in the sense that we are often disgusted by the idea of eating organs, when it’s very normal in most of the rest of the world.

I actually feel kind of lucky I had normal old builimia and not something that required re-introduction of a food or behavior.  Eat disorders manifest in some strange ways.

Organ meat is one of those things I know I should eat but never actually do.  We are so weird about that (at least in Canada), which doesn’t make sense.

I’ve seen them as recommended for epilepsy, also.
