Greetings folks, I was a bit concerned about something. Given the fact that in my home country in Central Africa (as is the case in quite a good number of others), you can rarely ever find any protein supplements at all, the gym I've been going to now for almost two years has come up with a strategy where it orders and imports Whey protein powder from North America, specifically Canada, and they come in very big containers. However, I am wondering if I have anything to be concerned about because the 24g of Whey protein I bought at the gym three weeks ago has 80mg of cholesterol and I just realized that. Should good Whey protein have that much cholesterol? In terms of regular fat, the protein in question has 2g.
"She's Out of Your League"
You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.
Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.
She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.
Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
Cholesterol in Whey Protein?

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

It's not bad for you. The cholesterol in whey works to lower your body's oxidation of its bad (LDL) cholesterol. Even though you are consuming one type of cholesterol, the net effect is that it reduces cholesterol's overall harm to your body, such as arterial sclerosis.

The media and doctors have done a very effective job of painting cholesterol as evil, when in fact it is anything but. First of all, your liver will make cholesterol if you dont eat it, it is what hormones are synthesized from. Second, when people have high cholesterol, they really are just very unhealthy people whose bodies are being ravaged by free radicals. The cholesterol acts as a band aid as the body attempts to repair the damage. So giving people cholesterol lowering drugs is basically treating the symptom and not the cause, something western medicine is all too in love with. Don't treat the actual problem, treat the symptom, ensuring years and years of bad health, doctor visits, hospital stays and costly drugs. If you think the FDA, doctors, the american medical association and pharmaceutical companies have your best interest in mind, you are sadly mistaken. They are in business to ensure every american is on drugs from the earliest point in their life possible for the rest of their life.
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
