..but I think I have high cholestrol. What's a good high protein diet fro lifting, that can help my cholestrol?
"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.
Took a break from lifting... ready to start again.

"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.

you THINK you have high cholesterol or you actually do?
exercise, a high fibre diet, weight loss (if applicable), no refined carbs and low carbs in general, and at least a moderate fat intake will reduce your cholesterol.
get some bloodwork if you think your cholesterol is high

Pretty sure it's high... I've had 6-7 eggs for months, I think that has something to do with it.

I find it highly unlikely that had anything to do with it, unless you have genetic cholesterol disorders. there's guys knocking back 2-3 dozen eggs a day and their cholesterol is in perfect order. the ingestion of dietary cholesterol should, if you are healthy, reduce your own levels or keep them the same at best.
what is your weight, bf% and daily diet and how often do you exercise.

I just had a conversation with a coworker who kept saying that eating the way I do (read high fat/protein) can't be good for me (read high cholesterol). With all that I've learned here I tried to explain to them that eating high cholesterol doesn't directly corrolate to someone having high cholesterol (as thats mostly genetic) well they wouldn't have it.
Then it occured to me I've never been tested.. so I called and made an apt for bloodwork next thursday with my doc to get it checked as I've been eating between 9-16 eggs per day since Jan of this year.
I can't wait to look at my numbers so I can throw it in the face of my coworker!

If you ain't keeping up with your cardio Johnny those numbers won't be as good as they can be
I don't get the driving need for people to convince others of things.JohnnyIrish said:
I have a number of co-workers now that try to lecture me about how i eat. So far i'm going to have a heart attack and my kidneys will shut down. It takes minutes of looking any of this stuff up but they will want to argue anything without the slightest bit of knowledge. Start spewing stuff out like "insulin sensitivity" while they stare at you stupidly, and you'll wonder why you talk to them at all if they know next to nothing. Then they will start a story abotu someone or other they know that had all kinds of problems with something or other, when that person really didn't do what they said they did or the story teller is just making it up in order to be right.
I don't talk to my mechanic about composing classical music, so i don't know why you would want to talk to average frumpy dude about healthful diet.

Ok... been feeding myself heavy amounts of whey protein, eggs, and I had a nice piece of steak for lunch.
I plan to lift some heavy weights tonight. Yay or nay?
Suggestions please?

Why wouldn't you lift weights tonight?
Or do you mean suggestions on a routine?

"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.

Christ, I'm so out of shape. Last summer, cut as a mothasucka... now, spare tires galore.
Did lift heavy weights, instead my normal weights (stuff I can do 3x10 reps with)
Did I mention that I'm freakn out of shape.. damn when you get old, it takes nothing to put you out of shape.
