I go to the gym at my office 2-3 times a week M-F and in the past year have seen the same girl in there 90% of the time I go in. She goes in, works her ass off for around and hour and leaves. She is overweight, but clearly trying not to be, but it’s just not happening. She has a pallid complexion and she’s not losing any weight because I know her diet is not what it should be. I feel so badly for these people. They’ve been lied to their whole life about what foods are actually healthy and all the exercise in the world cannot fix that. #Bitcoin defunding the Big Ag food complex might be even better for humanity than the reduction in wars. Our diets (especially in America) are the biggest problem we face as a society, and I don’t think it’s really even close.

Tell her!!
Find a nice way to tell her!!
I sometimes think of handing out business cards with QR code that links to nutrition blogs etc.
And it's true. I was never overweight by the world's standards, but I was too heavy for my frame and I worked out for 1+ year and couldn't move a needle. Then I changed my diet. On carnivore and worked out: bam, 30 lbs gone in a matter of months. I suspect if I didn't work out, that would have been gone anyways tho.
I know, I really do want to. I’ve thought about how to do it politely, but my inner libertarian just can’t bring myself to offer unsolicited advice to people.
Please offer me advice.
Don’t eat any sugars, any grains, or any seed oils. Eat lots of red meat and eggs. Try to source your food as locally and organically as possible. That’s about it.
Hmm okay ...I'm surprised that's the reason tbh. I can see trying not to offend being the reason.
Well, I would say if you tell her and she doesn't listen, that's when the inner libertarian kicks in. But she doesn't know yet. She deserves to know it thus the chance afterwards to decide for herself. ☺️
Yeah, definitely worries about the offending part. For all I know she’s happy with her weight.
You can probably tell her that you or someone you know used to have challenge lose weight after working out a lot and one day the change of diet helped.
Don't make it about her at all. Like you're just sharing a story.
Then I gotta talk to someone at the gym. That’s on my life codes never to do.
