"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

What about tuna and canned vegetables (corn,green beans)?
Not as good as fresh, but I think it would hard to handle fresh tuna.

Use this to determine how 'processed' is a particular food
The more processed a food is, the more sodium it will have
Sodium is what gets added when food goes through processing. Too much processed food in our diet is the reason why americans are getting too much sodium in their diet.
 

"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."

Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.

Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?

You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.

Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.

Guys shopping at whole foods is not a guarentee for a healthy diet. There is no substitute for knowledge, you need to know what foods are worth buying organic and pesticide free (meats, heavily contaminated fruits vegetables like apples, grapes, peaches, raisins, lettuce, spinich) and you need learn how to tell wholesome organic foods from organic junk, which Im sorry to say there is a lot of at whole foods.

Exactly. When I'm working out constantly, too much sodium is the least of my worries.
