Just a few of my blabberings. Sometimes it’s just not fun to be nice – and this collection of my blabberings provides some truth, with just a touch of spice…
-
“Nutrition isn’t about being 100% perfect 100% of the time; it’s about being 90% perfect 80% of the time.” Intro to my book.
-
“Food allergies are a scapegoat for a lot of people – but if your throat swells shut after eating a Nutter Butter – you might have a peanut allergy.”
-
“You pay attention meticulously to the amount of fuel that goes into your $20,000 Civic, but you could care less about the amount of fuel that goes into the priceless wonder that houses your very soul – now who’s got their priorities mixed up?” (To someone who said counting calories was too hard and we should focus on other priorities).
-
“Honestly if you are eating 2 crackers a day and still not losing weight – it’s time to eat 1 ½ crackers and the most complete multivitamin on the market. Think of all the money you’ll save.” (In Jest to someone who said they were eating sub 800 calories a day and still not losing weight).
-
“I think you need to read Matthew 7:5 and apply it to your nutrition before you recommend a fat burner to your friend there.” (To someone in need of dietary help that was recommending a stimulant based– and possibly dangerous- fat burner to a friend).
-
“Why are carbs bad? Because it sells books, low carb food products and fad supplements. Why are carbs good? Because they are nutrient rich, are your bodies main source of mental energy, are loaded with healthy fiber, and prevent chronic disease. They also aid memory – so I expect you’ll forget this and be on Atkins again tomorrow…” (to a discussion board member who did low carb)
-
“Truly if you don’t lose weight on a solid exercise program and 1200 calories, please, please come to me and let me take you straight to Area 51, where you will be ushered into the gates immediately for genetic testing. The Army will want to do extensive testing on you and discover how they can create a super soldier who doesn’t have to eat to maintain weight.” –Live Fit Live Free page 89

Person: “I know you say I can eat some candy and still lose weight, but Skittles make my stomach hurt.” Me: “Then stop eating Skittles.”
-
“Equating soreness to how good your workout was is like James Bonds method of telling if someone was snooping through his drawers. Lick a hair and apply it over the edge
Have you been in my drawers?
of your drawer until it sticks – if it’s still there when you come back then nobody has been in your drawer. If it’s gone, there is a chance someone was snooping – but it may just have fallen off. Thusly if you are sore you know you had a good workout (the hair is there) – but if you aren’t (the hair isn’t there), that doesn’t necessarily mean you had a bad workout – just that you aren’t sore. Either way you have dirty drawers
If you understood that on the first read through I want to buy you dinner…really.
