How are you celebrating Fat Bloke Friday? I'm cooking beans
Is this how you define yourself?
I'm sure the fat ones will be eating bread, rice and pasta at some point.
>>22267895I knew I was fat but I just saw a doctor for the first time in years a month ago and found out that I'm 100lbs overweight and my blood pressure is through the roof largely because of it. I fucked up my hip and it's been having a really hard time healing because of having to support my fat ass. Miraculously my cholesterol is OK, I'm not diabetic, pretty much everything except weight and blood pressure are fine, I guess probably because I was eating good food but just too much of it and too much beer, but I'm trying pretty hard to cut both calories and sodium. I'm also looking into the Ozempic pill but not sure my insurance will cover it. I went from a beer every night to maybe two drinks a week as well. I also rejected free pizza yesterday and am kind of proud of myself for it.Not sure what tonight's dinner will be but hopefully I can come up with something reasonably healthy and low-cal.
>>22268132Try NoSalt or Lite-Salt for cutting sodium. I don't have bad high blood pressure ("elevated" but not categorically high) but I switched to Lite Salt years ago just because it's a very easy healthy thing to do that has no negative effects
>>22267927>sugarcucks slandering CarbchadsEver FUCKING Time
>>22268138I'm somewhat fortunate in that I've never been one to use a ton of salt when cooking and I pretty much never put it on food at the table either. My sodium problems are all from processed meats and Asian stuff like soy sauce that's chock full of sodium. I'm a little fucked right now as well because I'm living with my parents while going back to school and that means having meals with them, and while they think they're trying to help and eat healthier they're not really realistic about what that actually means. If I cook with really low calorie and sodium stuff they're gonna hate it and try to gaslight me into think it's excessive, and when my dad cooks it ends up being shit like roast potatoes "but he only put olive oil on them instead of butter and salt."
>>22267895IS TIHS REAL??
>>22267895The real chemical warfare would be to somehow prion-ify a whole city into being sexually attracted to hamplanets
>>22268132>too much beer>a beer a nightThat's not too much beer at all. I thought you were going to say you were drinking a six pack a night or more. A single beer a night is definitely not what made you fat.
I actually went to the gym before going to dinner. might get some chicken fried chicken with extra gravy
>>22268186Uhhhhh it's already working on me wtf
>>22268194I was drinking 3-6 a night during covid, which is when I put all the weight on. I dialed back to one a night a couple of years ago.
