Meet Two Pioneers In the Exciting Academic World of "Fat Acceptance" Propaganda
Plus, GAINZZZ Thread
Can I just say, not all heroes wear capes?
It's one thing to offer a bit of emotional solace to overweight people. It's another thing to evangelize for obesity as a "healthy" alternative to not being obese.Meet the two professors leading the way in 'fat studies'I totally think that a woman extolling the virtues of excess fat (and getting high on her own supply, if you catch me) should be a "superfit hero trainer" at a YMCA.
Two professors at a midwestern university are working to develop and legitimize the field of "fat studies," a discipline that examines the cultural and sociological phenomenon of overweight and obese human beings. Laurie Cooper Stoll, a professor of sociology, and Darci Thoune, an associate professor of English, are both leading scholarly research in this field from the University of Wisconsin -- La Crosse. Their website, "Two Fat Professors," declares that the academics are "fighting fatphobia with education, community-building and a lot of sass."
Laurie teaches ZumbaŽ Gold classes at the YMCA in La Crosse and Onalaska, Wisconsin. The main goal in her classes is to have fun and celebrate our bodies!Well, that sounds like a very rigorous plan for staying fit.
You can follow her choreography or dance to the beat of your own drum. She promises never to engage in diet talk, negative fat talk, or body shaming during class (nor in her everyday life).A trainer should never, ever discuss a healthy diet, a healthy weight, or how to lose weight. I wonder what other "studies" she specializes in?
Dr. Laurie is also a Professor of Sociology at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.You don't say.
She earned her Ph.D. and graduate concentration in Women's and Gender Studies...You don't say.

I had that, and in fact got that again during my bad period.
For me, fixing it comes down to two things: staying low carb, and not eating within three hours of going to bed.
That last part is important, at least for me.
If you do get it, I find that having two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar mixed into 6-8 ounces of water will get rid of the GERD, albeit, in about 40 minutes.
GERD isn't really a problem of too much acid, but too little. If you give your stomach a boost with acid, you'll digest whatever's just sitting in your stomach causing the GERD.

Yeah not eating within a while of laying down is a big help. So is avoiding obvious villains like tomatos, hot sauce, etc. I used to get horrendous heartburn attacks and use a bit of baking soda mixed with water to neutralize the boiling in my gut.
Waking up in the middle of the night vomiting into your mouth is not much fun. Omeprezol has helped a lot, along with a much restricted diet, staying on a schedule, and lots of vitamins.
Pretty sure I have at least one very nasty ulcer, which I hope is healing as well.
And yeah, RIP Neal Peart.

There is a "diet" plan which consists merely of writing down what you eat-- and that's it.
You don't have to restrict.
But it works, because just making yourself think about what you're eating winds up making you make better decisions.
I stopped weighing myself at my low point in early september and then just totally stopped thinking about diet or health, until I recently got on a scale and said, "Oh shit."
Just keeping mindful of stuff has all sorts of good effects.

Once they are moving their bodies, maybe finding this relieves stress better than crunching down that bag of pretzels, if they want to take the second step and find a better eating plan, there are lots of resources out there.

Borderlines, such as myself and every mainstream journalist apparently, can use cold showers, ice in the hands and so forth, to change mood. A cold shower works wonders to get your mind off whatever is bothering you.
Instapundit just did a cryospa. That's where they use nitrogen to rapidly cool your skin. I looked up here in the Springs and they do that.
Ace has written about using cold to sleep.

yeah exactly, I think subconsciously I just thought, "No big deal, if I gain weight I'll just do a long fast."
But long fasts aren't easy, and they're a real pain in the ass as far as other stuff, like social engagements or working out. (Which is hard to do on a fast, and really can't be done on a dry fast.)

Then I immediately check out folds six and nine of Laurie Cooper Stoll to see if that will get me over the top.
It doesn't.
I go back to regular porn for a while, then check out Laurie Cooper Stoll's 5th camel toe.
Still not doing it for me.

One pro about fasting: I do think you have to indulge every now and again. And I think a two day fast will fix any damage you do even if you overeat crap for a day.

Hot/Cold: I've been doing the pool (c. 45 degrees) first thing in the morning, followed by treadmill, followed by the sauna. And I've been planning to reverse in the evening (sauna, weights, pool) but have only managed 1 or 2 out of three so far.
The sauna science is solid (see Dr. Rhonda Patrick for good summaries). I think the cold science is good, too, for varying purposes. What I can't figure out is whether they counteract each other. =P

Shed them already thank goodness. But I gained a lot during my chemo (oddly). My oncologist said it was the steroids they had me on or something. I had to burn that all off this past year, which took a while.
Now on hormone inhibitors with a side effect of "Rapid Weight Gain" so I'm paranoid now. I have to keep my calorie count down lower than ever in my life.

Yeah I don't get the Lizzo love. I mean she sings pretty well but not particularly great. She's not very attractive, and she's got a really weird fashion sense. Its a very strange thing which leads me to believe that she's just as packaged and fake as Black Eyed Peas which were freaking EVERYWHERE suddenly, because of a huge publicity deal.

Coffee with nondairy creamer.
Eggs and bacon late morning/early afternoon.
Nice, big, ribeye in the evening.
Lots of water and pork rinds when I need a crunch.
I do this during the week then keto on weekends and i've maintained a 35 pound weight loss. What the carnivore does that is different for me...doesn't change weight so much but my body looks better.

CR Taylor/Ace-- One thing we've noticed is that the cold pool after a workout reduces soreness afterwards, often dramatically. You don't want to do it right after strength training because the cold *may* inhibit protein uptake into the muscles. But after you've cooled down it should be fine.
Sauna is supposed to be stimulative at any point in a workout (before, during, after) but I haven't checked that aspect out. I've only noticed sleep is improved--seems to help the kids out a lot, too.
I do the sauna basically on the strength of the 30-40% reduction in All Cause Mortality in nearly 29 year olds.

I put together a weight loss web site a while back, and it estimated your basal metabolic rate from your age, your weight, your sex, and your activity level. There's a standard formula for that.
One of the main advantages of exercise is that raising your activity level really cranks up your BMR. The calories burned during exercise, however, are pretty minimal.

Get into a good stress reduction program and plan out an exercise program you can do every day. Physical activity will reduce stress and lead to better brain chemistry. Start with something easy and build up repetitions and mileage each day. Rise early, as that helps with improving body/brain functions. Get on a better diet that is highly organic and has no preservatives or processed sugar. There are many diets that can help guide you but use these fundamental tenets so you don't get overwhelmed. Also read about subjects that require you to use deductive and reasoning skills. You need to exercise your brain too. Most importantly, NEVER QUIT.

I expected that result, but something I did not expect was this. I would fry up about half a pound of bacon, then cook 4 eggs in the fat like Granny used to do. That would cause my glucose to drop for a little while after I ate.
I learned later that protein causes an insulin spike and without the carbs in the system, glucose drops after a very high protein meal. I think eggs in particular cause more of this effect for some reason. Might be the vitamins in the yolk.

After the Cardiac Event, I switched up the diet a bit, and my weight loss accelerated.
I'm basically within a pound or two of my goal, which is a problem.
You see, I'm so close it's hard to get up the will to cross the line.
My solution is to lower the goal by five more points so I have to.
Not really eating less, eating a little different, and also focusing on activity.
I don't believe you can starve yourself into good health. Cutting back can help, but you really have to work out and stay active. Otherwise a lot of the weight you're losing is muscle you'll want back later.

She decided I needed some improvement. I agree with her.
She has decided what i can eat and can't eat and rousts me out of bed in the morning to go to the gym, either in person or via text message....incessant never ending text message, until I acquiesce.
Upside, I have a girlfriend and have dropped 22 pounds in a month and have added muscle content on top of it. I feel better too.
Downside, I ate kale. I have not had a beer in a month because she says it causes soy tits. I've only had 8 liquor drinks total in a month and 2 glasses of wine, which completely wrecks my usual depressive state. I've found myself being friendly to other people and doing things around the house that needed doing. Sometimes I'm not even pessimistic.
Its a disgusting state of affairs.

I HAVEN'T been tracking macros or calories very well, but with the shortened eating window I suspect I'm eating less overall: a) because I _appear_ to be dropping weight and b) my workouts (modified 5X5) are getting harder than they should be.

Same.
I write the daily amount on the mirror, so I can track it. Nice motivator.
For those not keeping score at home, I topped out around 193 less than a year ago. 177 now. Target was 175 but I'm going to push to 170.
I got out of Army Basic 20 years ago this March at 162, so I think that's close enough.

There's a Red Letter Media video where they critique an exercise video "taught" by elderly celebrity parents. It's a wonderful train wreck. One of the men is drunk, the other man is (sadly) mentally deficient, and the two women are staking out territory and threatening to murder one another.

It starts around 46 minutes, but you can get a quick feel for the entire thing at 49 minutes.
Well worth a watch. No nudity but plenty of cursing, so maybe NSFW.

I used to teach a deep water aerobics class at the Y. I called it the fat, old, working woman's last chance work out. It was at 6:30 pm so women who worked had a chance to make the entire class period. Exercising in deep water is a full on resistance work out since you are working against the pressure of the water the entire time. And it doesn't stress your joints. Shallow water workouts are hell on my knees and hips.
My goal was to give these women stamina and extend their range of motion. Around the beginning of September, I would set a goal for them -- to weigh as much on New Year's Day as they did on Labor Day. If they didn't go insane during the holiday season and attended class faithfully, it could be done. But I did feel sorry for a couple of my ladies who worked in offices where the other women had an unspoken competition to see who could bring in the best goodies. I had it easy with the bookstore and no kids at home -- I just didn't buy or make any goodies.

If you make an argument that doesn't stand up to scrutiny you abandon any meaningful debate and immediately accuse your opponent of "isms", "phobes", etc. If someone is doing something that doesn't involve you and having fun or success doing so, you demonize said activity so as to try and naturalize your own misery.

Sounds like you got a good woman.
Do you know what a beer snob is? If not, I'm sure you can guess. I always drink a domestic light beer, usually bud light. When I'm around the snobs they want me to drink IPAs and heavy ales and crap like that.
I read that when women harvest hops they have to wear gloves because it causes their estrogen to go up so much. We also know that sugar will turn you into a woman.
Bud light when I checked last was lowest in hops and sugar. Ergo, a man's beer.
These days when I'm around those guys, I get a Corona or a Dos Equis (like 7 minute abs, their should be Tres Equis).

I just had my yearly bloodwork, and it's the best it has ever been (which of course means I could drop dead tomorrow).
My LDL went from 103 to 68, HDL went from 42 to 49, and Triglycerides went from 59 to 37, the lowest the nurse had seen. Now this is taking a small (20 mg) Lipitor every day, but that has been true for some years.

There's a philosophy of light weight exercises as espoused by Eugene Sandow, an old time strong man. Light weights and higher reps. In the short time I've tried it, it has really reshaped my core, arms and chest. I'll keep that up.
Also, being 29, if I can't run outside in winter, I'm trying rebounding (mini trampoline) which is easy on the joints and good for the lymph system. It's also kinda fun.

What is interesting to me is that people cringe at factory farming chicken, but then they are all for government factory schools where we lock kids in a brick prison shoulder to shoulder all day for 5 days a week. I was on the bus at 7am and didn't get home until 4:30.
And all during that day I was called faggot repeatedly. I didn't even drink Bud Light then.
Going forward, I am always calling public schools what they are. Government Factory Schools.

It is with broken hearts and the deepest sadness that we must share the terrible news that on Tuesday our friend, soul brother and band mate of over 45 years, Neil, has lost his incredibly brave three and a half year battle with brain cancer (Glioblastoma). We ask that friends, fans, and media alike understandably respect the family's need for privacy and peace at this extremely painful and difficult time. Those wishing to express their condolences can choose a cancer research group or charity of their choice and make a donation in Neil Peart's name.
Rest in peace brother.

true this, grammie
I don't normally eat a lot of sugar unless I bake for some occasion. I don't drink soda, or eat chips - only on special occasions, and some weekends.
I always forget tbh, that I do not eat like a lot of other folks.
I rarely eat bread, which makes sugar.
a typical day for me is
breakfast
egg + fruit
or yogurt
or just fruit
or cottage cheese + fruit
lunch
soup these days because it's winter (no bread or crackers)
salads - protein salads. Tuna salad, or chicken salad, egg salad, or whatever leftover meats I made the night before on greens. With tuna or chicken salads, which have mayo, I do not include a dressing. If it's a meat I made the night before (or seafood) atop some greens, I add a dressing.
I eat mixed nuts usually for a snack, not too much. 1/8th cup to 1/4 cup. Fattening. But healthy and filing.
Or I have a small yogurt cup for a snack.
Dinner
whatever I make, just don't overeat it
no snacks at night
water for drinking all day
sometimes a tomato juice or motts veggie cocktail
coffee with half and half
milk sometimes - usually in the morning before coffee
Not much fruit juice, because sugars. I eat the whole fruit.
I just don't eat sugar, breads, chips, soda, and junk food like that much at all.
But my dinners are usually caloric so I have to watch, because I make whatever I want to eat, but it's usually healthy to begin with.
good catch
I see people who sit and eat whole tubs of ice cream. I always forget about that.

I use Myfitness pal to track food (totally agree - its the mindfulness that works) and exercise.

Decades ago I was at a place I shouldn't have been* and saw two white trash women get in a fight outside the bar. One hit the other in the head with a tire iron, and the struck lady simply folded to the ground. My car full of people was already in motion and on the way out of the parking lot, thankfully.

Really awful to see Neil is gone. Rush was my favorite band growing up. And ugh at how he died (why couldn't it be a sudden heart attack?). Strangely, I remember being more upset/shocked over the news of his daughter's death (car crash). Probably because the band was still active and as a young fan had a closer connection.

Going to discuss dropping the lipitor soon with Dr.,
but reason is history of heart disease in family.
But everything I've read is you want your LDL/HDL ratio as low as possible. Mine is a very low 1.38.
I haven't seen anything that says my levels are too low, although given the state of research, who knows.

But I watched probably 100 videos, have been pretty good about sticking to it, have not felt hungry mostly ... usually one meal a day, or now two with maybe four hours between. Lost 25 pounds, aobut 8 more to go and the chart says I'm normal, not "overweight".
Blood pressure way down too, which was a bigger incentive for me, and I'm hoping there are other healing processes underway, including avoiding the dementia issues. So far all is well, food is good, even the keto bread is OK. Avoiding medical emergencies is the best health care plan. cheers ...

I would not automatically assume that blood tests are infallible. They all have a certain rate of false positives.
Years ago, I had lab tests that tracked a steadily growing level of an antibody that is an indicator of myasthenia gravis. I thought I was done for. I finally looked into the test and discovered it's not very good, got annoyed at the behavior of the doctors, and quit getting tested. I was actually getting classic early symptoms of the illness, and over time -- the symptoms eventually just faded away and stopped.
Maybe years of stress are giving you a positive test for early onset dementia, and if the stress is removed the marker will fade away. I'd recommend reading up on the test and seeing how reliable it is.

Ace, here is my recipe you wanted:
CHEESY CAULIFLOWER RICE
4 cups frozen cauliflower rice
1 tbs Kerry Gold butter or coconut oil
3 tbs cream cheese
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
salt/pepper to taste
splash of heavy whipping cream
Melt oil in skillet on medium heat, then add frozen cauli and salt/pepper. Heat till liquid is cooked out and cauli is heated up, about 5 min. (If you are adding extra veg or meat that is not shellfish, do it around here.) Turn down heat, add the cream cheese and the splash of HWC. (This forms the keto equivalent of a roux.) Then add the cheddar cheese and mix thoroughly. (At this point add extra seasonings, herbs, shellfish like shrimp.) Serve immediately, but I also eat it reheated.
If you want the mouth feel of noodles, then use 5 cups of fresh cauliflower florets in place of the frozen. Heat in skillet with oil till florets soften but still have a slight bite; you do not want them too soft. Then perform the other steps.
I will point out if you are doing this to have the exact replica of macaroni and cheese in your life again you will be disappointed. But I love this recipe because it triggers the SATIETY and comfort of a bowl pf mac n cheese. It calms my crave for it with the huge hits of cheese and I find it yummy. That was my primary comfort food before keto and I don't even crave it anymore. This does the trick for me.

Americans need to wake up to the fact that processed, boxed and fast food will make most people fat. All those carbs, all that processed oil, all those preservatives.
I used to be the exception since I've always been fat. Now, even at over 200 pounds, I'm often not the fattest person in the room. It's really sad, especially the kids.
