OT 16: A pirate's life for me!

[SAWCE]

Yeah IF is nice because it does limit when you can eat, so it’s harder to over-eat in an 8 hour window than a normal 16-18 hour window assuming most people sleep 6-8 hours a night.

Being pre-diabetic, I almost want to put her on a Leto diet, but I don’t trust her enough to actually weigh out the fatty foods and not just keep over eating her calories by going overboard with the fat calories.

Didn't you say that IF was good for diabetics? Maybe it's an option?

Definitely can be since you can get re-sensitized to insulin. I didn’t want to start her out on that right away though since she’s one to push back against restrictions. I’ll get her in the groove of just eating less processed shit, and then we’ll look at doing stuff like that.

Interesting.

I too struggle with restrictions, which is why every other "diet" I've tried ultimately fails. I hate limiting what I eat because I can get vicious cravings for stuff. Makes zero sense, but that's how it is. But restricting WHEN I eat has been far easier for me for some reason.

Cutting processed stuff is a critical first step, though...I agree with you there. We eat next to zero processed foods, that change was also somewhat easy and we've felt better doing it for a while.

Speaking of.. someone I’m kinda friends with hit me up yesterday about my training rates. Said she’d been to the doctor and was told she needs to lose weight because she’s at risk of a bunch of stuff like beetus. She’s always been on the heavy side as long as I’ve known her, but I didn’t ever think it was that bad. Gave her my rates, told her to check in with me this morning with a current weight after waking up and using the bathroom so I could start working on a plan. She texts me this morning “195.8” Holy fuck, my jaw dropped. This chick is maybe 5’4” tops. She’s well into the obese range and pushing into extreme/morbid obesity.

Sent her a sample plan of what I think would be good for her. Hopefully she follows through, but I’m not expecting much as she already is trying to swap out real meat for sausage from the plan I gave her.

for most yes.

I had a bunch of beers friday, then spent saturday outside and tired to drink a bunch of water but i guess not enough.... high purines - water = flareup :/

I went and got a shot to help, burns like a mofo so that means its working right?

Not judging, but your drinking habits are not doing you any favors where your gout is concerned, dude. Plus, shellfish, an airboatlandia staple, and red are also contributors to gout.

I know this. The thing is, everything is a trigger it seems, just different for different people.

For me its beer and refined carbs, esp together. Meat and fish not so much. I mean, i have not had a drink since saturday and its not been gettin better so i tapped medical intervention.

Didn't mean to sound preachy. Just wanted to point out that relief is within your control. Good luck with it going forward.

I hear ya, and I think i do a good jerb of controlling it. Its been about 6 months since my last attack.

I really think its stress related with the HOA shit, well certainly not helping.

I do hope it can clear up good by the weekend....going on vacation and I do like to have a drink or 10 sometimes. But I guess I'll stick to whiskey and wine and severely limit the beers.

Going to tennessee and not going to drive something hard and fast feels weird. I guess i can try to talk the older kids going into some karts and bring them to school

[goIftdibrad]

forgot to add the shot has already helped tons....i barely feel it at the moment.

Stress can be a source for all kinds of bad shit in our bodies, for sure.

Get into a cart to blow off some of the stress
