I am very healthy so I don't have anything to stress about

A little too skinny but people glare at me if I mention it.

Stress is bad for your health, indeed, but where I live things are usually fried or deep-fried - which pretty much ruins any nutrition a food has, so I believe my heightened concern about healthy food is justified.

At least I got my bananas the other day... HOORAY!

You'd be amazed what the food industry did to the "healthyness" of your food, over-producing and such made the vitamins and healthy stuff like that almost completely dissapear out of a lot of foods..

Are you sure that's not a wee bit of an exaggeration there? There are certain pitfalls that come with mass-production of anything, but I sincerely doubt that fresh fruit and vegetables have lost nearly that much nutritional value (if any). You'd be hard pressed to deny the benefit of a good salad... o__O

Wel i can be wrong, but if that's the case a major health company is lying through their teeth, and faking several big studies...
Besides, compare the way we grow our food nowadays with how we did it 50 years ago... We let fruits grow ripe in special chambers so they're ready faster, problem is, most vitamins are developed by sunlight exposure...
Now we can't do that with meat (yet), so milk and most meat is still plenty healthy... And most food we eat has added vitamins, so we don't have to stress about dying, but natural vitamins in fruits and veggies? diminished because we need too much, too fast...

They've already made artificial meat that can be grown in test tubes.
But what I've heard, it tastes like snot.

Smokey · April 11, 2009, 10:26:27 AM

Gah, we might as well just get our nutrition from pills, if that were to become the mainstream meat...

IanDanKilmaster · April 11, 2009, 11:24:30 AM

Oh, lab-grown plants... you know there are still farms that raise such stuffs right?

I still say it's important to ensure one is getting a proper nutrition, but geh...

Anybody else spend too much time on tvtropes.com last night?

Chocofreak13 · April 11, 2009, 12:23:39 PM

Smokey · April 11, 2009, 06:36:58 PM

No, btw, I've been spending too much time in the Zone... ^_^

Smokey · April 11, 2009, 07:54:37 PM

And according to your length, your at a good weight, certainly no right to start complaining about being too heavy, and definately not fat...

Hey, we're in a recession dammit ><, and it's not like my "skills" are ever going to be in demand where I live -__-;. Still, a mooch I am, but I have been doing some work recently, but not for pay (yardwork around the house, my aunt's house, my cousin's friend's house, and even the goddamned church). I do other work too, but nothing as consistent as the yardwork.

This is going to come off as very sexist, but I find girls in general tend to underrate their appearance and are some of the most self-conscious types I've known. Even when they act very confident in their appearance, they tend to be compensating for an actual feeling of physical inadequacy. My point is, don't sweat it, and please, if a guy (or girl, to be all-inclusive) compliments you don't freak out and get all self-conscious... it makes things weird.

210 & 6'2'' YO! (some real cave troll dimensions)

I'm a student, so I spend most of the day at school, but if I sit all of my freetime home as a basement-dweller, does that make me a mooch?

Smokey · April 12, 2009, 05:46:30 AM

Naah... BTW i'm 6'1" couple that with my weight, and i am by far not fat...
And after i'm done with training (in ~3 months) i will have gained aa couple of pounds, but still would be relatively fat-free ^_^
