Funny CW moments

actually they're kinda yummy, if wholly non-paleo. assuming we're talking about British digestives--sorta like a malted graham cracker cookie.

I like the chocolate covered ones. Someone invent a substitute, please.

friend on facebook: "Remembering to stop and eat. I get so crabby when I'm hungry I bug ME!" Someone else: "What are you having" her: "Leftover mashed potatoes, strawberry pie from (person's) wedding, a freezy pop and nacho"

um. carbs much?!?!? Gee I wonder why you get grumpy when you get hungry....

A digestive...

Or the Jaffa Cake as a diet biscuit. Only 1 gram of fat...go for it.

I used to loveee magazines like Shape, Fitness, and Self. Until I realized a few years ago that they give the same information all the time and once you've read one issue you've read them all. Now, after having watched FatHead and become and MDA info fiend, I can't even look at them any more without becoming frustrated. But I saw a link to something with Bob Harper from Biggest Loser and I used to be a fan of the show (for the tear-jerker moments, I won't lie) and I really just like looking at Bob. Anyway, he gives some 'advice' and here is my favourite that I think you'll all just love:

[I]"I think black beans and brown rice is an ideal combo. You get the protein your body needs to build lean muscle, complex carbs for lasting energy, and fiber to keep you feeling fuller for longer. And it tastes great!"
[/I]

In the first slide in the series he says:
[I]"I'm not a fan of the no-carb thing. If you eat whole grains and stay away from starchy carbs (such as white-flour products), you'll give your body the energy it needs to perform at its best—whether you’re working out or just running errands."[/I]

Riiiight...because whole wheat pasta isn't starchy?!?

I wanted to add this other link that I found on the site:

This one actually has some really good (if not seemingly common sense to MDA readers) that they don't always promote (except for the veggie omelette on number 45) ESPECIALLY number 50 which talks about using coconut oil! I do find it kind of funny though, because they are telling their online readers not to eat the small, sugary fat-free 6oz yogurts, but (along with nearly everything else they tell their online readers not to eat) they promote the products on every single page and in every ad of their magazine!

muscle and fitness hers & mother earth news. i can't stand browsing through things like cosmo and women's health any more

Ok so it is 08:39 and the guy in the cube next to mine is on his third 100 calorie pack since 08:00 do they think that if they eat them 100 at a time they dont count?

I saw a woman in another car on the freeway doing something that made ME damn near drive off the road. She was fiddling with her phone, eating a sandwich (no clue what was in it), drinking a Starbucks Frappucino, putting on makeup, and trying to bribe a kid in a car seat in the back with what looked like a lolipop. This was at 745 this morning. I damn near pulled over and let her get a few miles ahead of me. CW, "multitasking," AND distracted? It's a new trifecta...
