They stink your house out and taste like swamp. Your family and friends probably will mate. Like I say though, nobody should be forced to keep fit, this thread's only for those who want to.
@commachio1 you don't like the girls who keep fit? I thought they'd be right up your street, not an ounce of overhanging front bum in sight!
Of course a fit bitd is much better than a fat saggy hag. Im not knocking anyone who trains. Far from it. I remember when i was mega fit. Ffs i even did the 30 miler with 34 mins spare. Pepple like to keep fit in their own way. I dont get all this diet and stuff to much. Sounds like a waste of money to me.
It's about keeping your food clean mate. The government are happy to attribute issues like cancer and mental health issues to growing population, because huge corporations like coca cola are paying huge sums to governments to allow them to have their products on the shelves inside their country. For the human body to thrive it has to be primitive, we weren't made to consume chemicals such as Aspartame, we were made to hunt for meat, fish, get things from the ground and trees. Now we have evolved to a species that consume food and drinks with chemicals in it. Our blood and brains can't process it, hormones end up all over the place, you mentioned salt, that's just one of hundreds of deficiencies people develop with bad diets. It's like sticking petrol mixed with piss and fruit shoot in your car and expecting it to work the same as it does with just petrol.
Mate I know what you mean, nee bother. That said, I was at a mans funeral on Wednesday. He had bad Alzheimer's/demensire. Lovely bloke who enjoyed a pint or two down the club. He was 77, ended up not even knowing his own wife or son. I don't want to end up like that. I want to go before I get to that stage. Don't want to end up having to be spoon fed liquidized food & people having to wipe my arse. This bloke worked down the pit & when he retired he kept himself active with his allotment. Never smoked in his life, never drank to excess, ate well from the garden. Didn't do him any good though did it? I smoke like a chimney & drink like a fish.
Maybe it didn't do him any good, or maybe he'd have developed something else if he ate like a pig. My gran smoked 40 a day for 40 years, she's got Alzheimer's as well mate, she's got nowt left to live for really either, she turned 83 this year. She never ate well really, so each person is different. There's no guarantee you'll be 'deed' at 65 mate, are you prepared to live to 85/90 if you are clinically obese and have to be pushed around in a chair? That could happen and that'd be ****. In my view, I'd like to be able to look after myself so others don't have to, I hate being a burden and that sort of drives me to be healthy in a way I guess. I like to be the one who looks after others, rather than vice versa. Not judging you mate, just putting my own spin on it, how I 'do me'.
Surely it all starts from a young age. Kids born a long time ago have chance to have been fitter than todays kids. Whete do the kids today get to do any exercise?
Like lots of things, each to their own. Many years ago a mate of mine said he didn't gym/exercise as it was a waste of time as he may ''get knocked over by a bus tomorrow'' On the other hand I said, you may not. So I'm in the camp of trying to keep /improve health while you have it for as long as possible, but I do understand that no matter what you do ''right'' you may still be unlucky and be struck by something you never expected. Now he's probably 3 stone heavier, I am 3 stone lighter. He wouldn't be joining me on an enjoyable days cycling, or a ski trip. He is happy, fair enough, but I think he's missing out on being able to be active. But as I agree, each to their own. I will always remember when local 6oclock news visited a guy in the old peoples home. I think he was in a wheelchair, but his mind was obviously sharp. The reporter asked him what he thought on this his 104th birthday. His reply was that if he'd known he was going to live that long he would have taken better care of himself.! If some of the benefit of the exercise I do today does me well in the future I will be well chuffed -- or maybe that bus will have my number on it after all.
I was out cycling last week, in the sticks, and saw two runners coming my way on the horizon. Really good running form, relaxed, no bouncing heads & moving at pace. As I got closer it was a bit surreal to see two kids running, must have been no older than 7, just tonking it over distance - they must have been 4km out of the town I was heading towards. A sight I'd never, ever see in the UK for far too many of the wrong reasons. They still have national service here like. and the birds have great arses......
If we see 2 seven year olds running at pace we would probably expect to see a policeman behind them.( Well in years gone by there might have been policemen available to chase them)
I do, I'm a pepper monster. I'd carry west indian pepper sauce out with me if my lass would let me. I like the green ones, more acidic, but it like them all. Got supper chilies F1 this year, the crop is unreal. I'm a happy bunny.
Do you just call them peppers or bell peppers? The only time I eat the green peppers is when I have beef with black bean sauce, the rest of the time I can't eat them. I love the small ones, Tesco do a finest range for about £3 for 5 tiny ones but my local grocer does a bag of them for a buckfifty
I call all peppers peppers unless I need to be specific, to call it bell pepper is like referring to a marris piper potato as a marris piper potato when you only need to call it a potato.
See if my Mrs sends me out to get a bag of peppers and I come back with them long red ones, when she wanted the bell peppers to stuff, then I might as well go live under the stairs for the rest of the week.
