It is real for sure, but the signal starts in your gut and it tells your brain what it wants.

The microbiome in your gut is responsible for so much shit in our bodies.

Oh wow, very interesting....and explains a lot.

I was thinking it was brain related, but gut related makes more sense to me TBH.

The catch will be staying this way. I feel way better, I'm losing weight, it's cheaper, there's zero downsides OTHER than convenience. Cooking all the time will get old when we're not home all the time. It's why we didn't eat clean in the first place.
Cooking all the time gets old for sure. I just signed up for a bodybuilding company that cooks all your chicken for you. Will save me hours every week.
:notbad:

Chicken takes way too long to cook since it has to be all the way through. It really does get old.

$5 chulapa value box + cheesy gordita crunch.

Chicken takes way too long to cook since it has to be all the way through. It really does get old.
Especially with how much and how often I eat it.

When I first started cooking all my meals and doing “meal prep” I’d cook chicken for the whole week at once. It wasn’t too bad. But the longer I did that the more I hated eating 5 day old chicken at lunch on a Friday. Eventually I started cooking 2-3x a week so it was always a little more fresh. Once I stepped up and went :fullretard: with bodybuilding and eating as much as I need to to keep growing I switched to cooking every single morning before work so it’d be as fresh as possible since I’m eating a full pound of just chicken every day.

That’s obviously not as time efficient as it could be and I could suck it up and cook two days at a time or something, but fuck, if someone else will season, cook, and then flash freeze it and ship it to me so I can have all that time back. It’s worth the premium I’m paying over buying raw. Especially since prices have gone up for chicken out here recently.

Man that sounds good. Chalupas are good too. Crunch wrap is usually good, but I’ve had a few bad ones where they left it in the press too long and the whole thing got burned :(

Yea, I can't imagine cooking a lb of chicken every day. :nope:

Chicken is really only good for 1-2 days after cooking. It gets bleh after day 3 or so in the fridge.

I normally just squeeze lime juice into a glass on the rocks with some tokillya and a salted :ramz: and call it a day. Maybe I will buy some bitters and try that as well.

Man you ever try like "taco chicken" in the crock pot or something? It won't really change the macros much as it's basically seasoning, onion, tomatos, chiles, but it is good, easy, keeps well for a few days and would mix things up a bit.

We do the same...but bitters are a nice way to tweak the flavor if desired.

I love how dummies think masks are a political statement. No, it's not a political statement, I just don't trust idiots.
This just makes zero sense to me. Old dudes in particular love not wearing masks and getting up in people's business. At least around here.

I hate wearing masks...just hate it. So, I don't go out.

When we went out yesterday, I wore a drywall mask and was laser focused on getting in and out as fast as possible.

We witnessed numerous old dudes being jackasses.

When our offices open back up we will be requiring them. I'm not looking forward to it but it's the right decision. I bought myself a good one with replaceable filters. Between work and extensive travel, seems like a must have for me.

I also loathe masks. If was on the bike I would just leave my helmet on. If I am not, I just dont wear and keep my distance, be focused on getting in and getting out. Apparently my next costco trip will require a mask :rolleyes: I'm about over the whole corona thing anyway. We went to a restaurant in TN and had real people serve us food, and a beer, it was nice. There will be some adjustments to keep the spread down in the next few months, but FFS, don't forget we are all pretty much destined to get this. Do your best but also live life.

Took a nice 6 miles walk/run and now more people are being outside. Probably because of the direction we're heading where it gave people more of a green light, but still not good of course.
