I like Lifetime, but there's varying rates/privileges depending on the location. A gold membership is roughly $70 a month, -25ish from Medica insurance, -20 from work. So I end up paying $25/month for a lap pool, nice locker room, and professional-appearing facilities. If my work/insurance didn't pay such a large portion, I'd definitely be going elsewhere. Snap was sufficient, but very low-rent in comparison.

Alright, I'm done. I look around and all I see are happy fat people. They they get to park closer to everything, they get to eat anything and everything they want, they get to buy awesome TVs and speaker systems on the government dime, and they get to play video games all day. What is the fucking point of not eating delicious food and killing yourself in the gym when you can get fat and live off the government dime while enjoying the sweet life?
Fuck. Time to start the "Weight Gain Thread" for some pro tips on how to reach morbidly obese status and how to navigate the government paperwork labyrinth when applying for my monthly checks. Pizza rolls tonight!

It's fun in the short term. The long term consequences, generally, aren't particularly amusing.
It sucks. Now when I have a hamburger I can taste and experience it 100 times more on a diet and I know if I binge food it will stop being so good.

Find food you like that is not horrible for you. I see people who feel they need to eat dry grilled chicken with plain broccoli to "eat right", or some protein shake or energy bar. Eat normal food, it's good.
Steak, roasted chicken, pork chop, eggs, any fish, shrimp, crab, lobster, turkey, bacon, ribs. Bell peppers, spinach, broccoli, potato, asparagus, tomato, eggplant. Avocado, olives, olive and coconut oil, nuts, seeds. Rice, beans, oatmeal, oranges, apples, pears, grapes.
Granted it takes more effort to do yourself, probably more money, but worth it.
They were replacing stuff in the area so we had no power for a few hours, i decided to take a break from routine, had myself some shrimp and potatoes for lunch, and i killed it in the gym yesterday anyway. Being flexible keeps yah from breaking.

Yeah, I pretty much just cook whatever is on sale or I feel like. Today I did a grilled london broil marinaded in balsamic vinegar, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper with some mashed potatoes and broccoli. But I like broccoli. Surprisingly enough, the kids LOVED the meat.
But yeah, I could never stick to one of these "never eat anything YOU FAT FUCK" diets. I have to have normal food. I just try and be mindful of what a real portion is supposed to look like and what my plate should look like as far as composition.

To me, that is not a tenable diet. I don't begrudge anyone doing it, it just doesn't work for me since I am cooking for 5 people and I am certainly not putting my children on Atkins. To me, normal food is a traditional meal. Some kind of protein (usually meat because 'Murrica), a vegetable, and a starch of some kind. Fruit as a snack or after dinner thing. Also I stay away from processed stuff as much as possible.
I think some people have the mentality that they have to do something drastic to lose/gain weight and that really is not true. If I was single, I might go balls to the wall paleo or something. Why not? But I can't see doing that in my situation, just doesn't work for me.

Fr about 2 years I ate nothing but oatmeal in the morning then 4 meals of grilled chicken, brown rice and brocolli. I said fuck it anD always ate chicken with franks red hot. It did suck, but I put on a ton of muscle and lost a fair amount of fat in the process. It still sucked.
It's not just being healthy enough for sex... being in-shape allows you to have higher quality sex. More positions open up, or don't feel as awkward... not to mention that you will attract more attractive people and even if you're in a committed relationship, it can still increase the quantity of sex
