#one of the healthiest fish out there to eat

[queenofcoquette]

eating clean(er)!

prefaces:

i know talking about food can be a sensitive subject, so i want to give some prefaces before we begin:

this is not about weight loss, this is about health. people can be thin but still have a diet that is not beneficial for their health. even tho i’m not overweight, im still striving to eat healtheir for the sake of my health and the health benefits of whole foods. 

 i know it can also be difficult to eat healthy (healthier foods are typically more expensive in the US) and a lot of people don’t have the time to put time into thinking about what they’re going to eat. you don’t need to eat completely farm fresh food, these are simply tips for bettering your current diet.

eating better:

read about nutrition. you can buy or check out books on it or read online, but read about the importance of eating good and what we need in our diets.

find fun recipes. the first step is finding recipes you can make at home. generally, eating at home is cheaper and also a lot healthier. and finding recipes that are fun and new makes eating healthy a lot better :)

make a list of fruits and vegtables you like and dont like- this will help you know what to buy and what to eat more of. this is a great starting point

add more fruits and vegtables to your meals. find new ways to incorporate them into your meals- snack of them- whatever. just strive to eat a fruit and vegtable with every meal.

add more whole foods into your diet. obviously this includes fruits and vegtables, but also things such as poultry, eggs, nuts and beans. fish is also really good for you. find ways to incorporate the nutrients you need.

start with healthier snacks. to put it simply, just swapping out highly unhealthy snacks (such as chips, sweets, etc.) with healthier alternatives (such as fruits) can make a big impact. not only will these healthier options satisfy your hunger better, but you’ll also be provided with the proper energy your body needs.

balance it out! dessert is fun to- so are sweets and milkshakes and ice cream and all of that. eating healthy doesn’t mean getting rid of those foods, it means eating healthy most of the time but letting yourself enjoy a variety of foods.

how to start:

do your own research. the internet is full of misinformation and fear mongering, so before you even begin take time to research things like the effects of canned foods and other ultra-processed ones. you don’t have to be an expert in nutrition, but building a better knowledge of healthy eating and WHY it’s important is crucial to start.

find healthier alternatives. for example, i love fruit snacks and gummies, so not only do i eat less of those, but i tend to go for the healthier versions. changes like this will make healthy eating a lot easier!

start small. maybe just add a fruit or vegtable to two of your meals a day and then all of them. progress always comes from little steps, so find something that works for YOU.

if you’re having trouble balancing out food, or if food is just a general issue for you, then please get help and contact a hotline or service that deals with eating disorders.

conclusion

self-love means nourishing our bodies in order for them to be their healthiest versions. our bodies keep us alive and do so much for us- so in return we need to nourish them with what they need to keep us feeling good. treating our bodies to the nutrients they crave helps us feel more energized, improves our overall health and mood. it gives us a healthy feeling and a glow. hope u enjoyed this post :))))- amy <3

Hello some IMPORTANT NEWS, today marks an entire year since I (Eira, creator of the show and voice of Sam Enfield) started taking testosterone and I would like to report that it is great. Thank you for your time.

I am the happiest and healthiest I’ve been since I was a kid and it’s such a powerful little thing that it radiates out of me like an LED light.

Being trans is hard but it doesn’t have to be! And it feels important to remind you even in times like these there is still joy out there. I’m out here stubbornly enjoying myself.

They say the best revenge is living well and bestie I am living my wellest.

Well, you know, within reason, one can only expect a certain level of wellness when you’re trying to nurture a career in the arts without a family fortune to back you up.

But even with the whole Hardly Any Money thing and the Mostly Eating Beans thing I’m still the happiest I’ve ever happied and that counts for a lot I think.

Like seriously I have been a Dramatically Miserable person in the past. I’ve violently hated myself! It was rough!! I couldn’t get out of bed!!!

I still struggle with depression and anxiety and neurodivergence is its own kettle of fish but for the first time in my life I actually like who I am as a person.

Anyway I love you all, do something kind for yourself today. Have a nice apple or a bar of chocolate or take a long bath or cuddle a fuzzy creature.

Whatever brings you joy, do it, because joy is important too, especially in times as dark as these. Okay bye ily and I mean it, no take backs xxx

Day 2 of getting my sh!t together!

It is the second day of getting my life together, and although it wasn't perfect, it was still consistent. I am an insomniac, so sleep doesn't come easily to me without any help. I did not take my supplements or drink chamomile tea last night, which generally helped me to sleep. The supplements are usually made up of lavender and other herbs that help relax your nerves.

It works for me. So, I tossed and turned till 4 in the morning, as a result of which I could not go for a walk in the morning. But, I woke up just in time for my yoga class and joined it. I don't really enjoy it, but doing yoga makes me feel better throughout the day. It also helps me with sore muscles and body aches. I also feel very calm and at peace while doing it.

However, unlike yesterday, work was good. I managed to get a lot done and also binged on a couple of episodes from Queen of Tears. I'm so hooked on it. But, I can't watch anything at a stretch so I take breaks in between. It was a decent day but I wasn't feeling my best. I can't figure out why.

Anyways, now let's come to food. Since I woke up late, I wasn't in the mood for breakfast but I still ate something and lunch was a fulfilling Bengali meal, it was so yummy. Dinner was light and hearty. Also, I drank chamomile tea now, so hopefully I can sleep.

Breakfast:

1) Ice cream sandwich (I know not the healthiest option but I love it)

2) Black coffee

Morning Snack: I got snacky right before heading to shower and that's when I had some leftover white potato curry aka shada alur torkari! It's so yummy. There are days when I eat this for dinner by itself.

Lunch

1) Brown rice

2) Fish curry

3) Roasted papad curry or papor er torkari

4) Salad

Evening Snack:

1) Grapes (I had to heavily edit the image as the one I clicked sucks)

2) Black coffee

3) 1 biscuit

Dinner:

I had some chicken ham so I boiled some corn and stirred it with the ham in some butter and pepper. I then put together a salad with the buttered corn and ham, cucumbers, onions, and green chilies, sprinkled some garlic salt, pepper, and chat masala. Served with a spoonful of relish on top. This really put my day together. It was so comforting.

Last but not the least, I had a cup of chamomile tea.

Oh, here's my choice for song of the day-

I'm going to sound like a conspiracy theorist but bare with me

every Nigerian president that has step foot into office is a fucking puppet of the UK. oh their smart don't get me wrong but everything they do benefits the UK and lines their (that is the presidents) pocket!

why is 100 naira on the verge of being useless? once upon a time (I'm talking about 2022) I could walk into a store a get a small loaf of bread and a pepsi! not the healthiest but that shit keeps you full for four hours at least. heck in 2017 you could get a full plate of rice and stew with fried beef/fish from a "mama-put" but now in the year 2024 a 100 naira isn't even getting you a loaf of bread!!! what the fuck is happening in our country? where's all the money?

no one can afford to eat, health care is fucking expensive, insurance isn't accessible to everyone, there's a housing crisis even though houses are being built everywhere, public infrastructure is depleting, more than half the fucking population is living below the poverty line, public school education is shit, the private schools are kicking prices to the sky (2021-2022 academic school year my parents paid 1.7million naira in fees. if I was still in Nigeria, I'd be paying 2.5million but the quality of education hasn't changed!!!), all the teachers in the public universities are on strike, SARS is at an all time high, and there are NO JOBS!! EVERYTHING IS BEING RESERVED FOR THE BOURGEOIS

people are dying in cargo ships trying to cross the atlantic because facing whatever evil is out there is better than dying because of their circumstances. and then we have fucking illiterates (as the country is designed to keep us stupid) having religious and tribal wars!!!

"vote according to your tribe" "yoruba people are this" "igbo people are that" "don't vote for the fulani's" "the Islam's will force us to convert" "xxx is a babalawo" SHUT THE FUCK UP!!

how do we suffer every year with people from different tribes and it still has not clicked for people that the government is going to be shit if we continue with the system we have in place right now! we are all fucking arguing everyday as if we aren't still disenfranchised by colonial powers. we are given the illusion that we can vote but it never fucking matters!! they destroy ballot boxes, look us dead in the eye and call out a random number for votes even though it does not match what's on the voting website. how does this tie to the UK?? because every president that wins is buddies with the UK prime minister!! I don't mean cordial work relationships, I mean "flying out of the country every two weeks to rub shoulders with this asshole even though my citizens are being shot at by the police and military" type of buddies

this turned into a rant but whatever 🥴 FUCK YOU TINUBU! FUCK YOU BUHARI! FUCK YOU AS WELL JONATHAN! AND FUCK THE UK

#im sick of this shit yall #I've got shit easy #my family and I were able to get out #but what about everyone else??? #and even if we had stayed #food school and housing would never be a worry #i wanted to move back home but at the rate things are going id literally be homeless if i did #fuck our presidents #aes.txt

The Ultimate Guide to Weight Loss: Achieving Your Goals with Healthy Eating Habits and Lifestyle Changes

When it comes to weight loss, finding the right approach can be overwhelming. With so many diets and trends out there, it's hard to know which one will actually work for you. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore the best strategies for achieving weight loss through healthy eating habits and lifestyle changes. Whether you're looking to shed a few pounds or embark on a complete transformation, this guide will provide you with the knowledge and tools to reach your goals.

The Power of Healthy Eating Habits

A healthy diet is the foundation of successful weight loss. Instead of focusing on fad diets that promise quick results, it's important to adopt a sustainable approach to eating. A healthy diet should consist of natural, unprocessed foods that provide your body with the nutrients it needs to function at its best. By replacing unhealthy foods with healthy ones and making long-term changes to your eating habits, you can achieve weight loss while also reaping numerous other health benefits.

Embracing a Balanced Diet

A balanced diet is key to achieving and maintaining weight loss. It involves consuming a variety of foods that provide your body with the necessary nutrients and minerals. A healthy diet should prioritize plant-based foods, such as fruits and vegetables, over animal foods. It should also include an adequate amount of protein and healthy fats, while being low in sugar and salt.

Healthy Meal Ideas for Weight Loss

Planning nutritious meals is crucial when it comes to weight loss. Here are a few examples of healthy meals that can help you achieve your goals:

Breakfast: Start your day with a bowl of bran flakes topped with sliced strawberries and walnuts, served with nonfat milk.

Lunch: Enjoy a turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread with a variety of vegetables and an olive oil and vinegar dressing.

Dinner: Indulge in a salmon steak served on a bed of spinach.

Remember, it's essential to choose meals that you enjoy and that align with your taste preferences. This will increase the likelihood of sticking to your weight loss journey in the long run.

Snacking the Healthy Way

Snacking doesn't have to be off-limits when you're trying to lose weight. In fact, incorporating healthy snacks into your diet can help you stay satisfied and avoid overeating. Here are some ideas for healthy snacks:

Almonds or pistachios

String cheese with an apple

Greek yogurt

Banana with peanut butter

By choosing nutritious snacks, you can curb cravings and maintain a balanced diet while on your weight loss journey.

Exploring Healthy Eating Patterns

While there isn't a single diet that is deemed the healthiest, there are several eating patterns that have been associated with optimal health. These eating patterns tend to have common characteristics, such as being plant-based, emphasizing healthy fats, minimizing simple sugars, and favoring natural, unprocessed foods.

The Mediterranean Diet

The Mediterranean diet is named after the foods traditionally consumed by cultures around the Mediterranean Sea. It emphasizes minimally processed fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and whole grains. Moderate amounts of yogurt, cheese, poultry, and fish are also included. Olive oil is the primary cooking fat, while red meat and foods with added sugars are consumed sparingly. In addition to promoting weight loss, the Mediterranean diet is linked to a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancer.

The DASH Diet

The DASH diet, or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, was specifically designed as a heart-healthy eating plan. It focuses on low cholesterol and saturated fats, while providing adequate amounts of magnesium, calcium, fiber, and potassium. The DASH diet emphasizes whole grains, vegetables, fruits, fish, poultry, nuts, and olive oil. Red meat and sugar are limited. This diet has been shown to effectively lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart failure.

The MIND Diet

The MIND diet, which stands for Mediterranean-DASH Diet Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay, combines elements from both the Mediterranean and DASH diets to promote brain health and prevent dementia and cognitive decline. It is similar to both diets but places a stronger emphasis on leafy green vegetables and berries while reducing the consumption of fruit and dairy products.

The Nordic Diet

The Nordic diet is a weight loss and health maintenance diet based on Scandinavian eating patterns. It includes foods such as fish, apples, pears, whole grains like rye and oats, and cold-climate vegetables like cabbage, carrots, and cauliflower. Studies have shown that the Nordic diet can help prevent stroke and aid in weight loss.

By incorporating elements from these healthy eating patterns, you can improve your heart health, consume natural unprocessed foods, and enjoy a variety of plant-based dishes while on your weight loss journey.

The Benefits of Intermittent Fasting

Intermittent fasting has gained popularity in recent years due to its potential benefits for weight loss and overall health. Fasting, or abstaining from eating for a certain period of time, has been practiced for centuries for both spiritual and physical reasons. Intermittent fasting involves dividing your time between eating windows and fasting periods on a regular basis.

How Intermittent Fasting Works

During fasting periods, insulin levels drop, and the body starts burning fat for fuel. This metabolic shift is believed to contribute to weight loss. Intermittent fasting can also decrease inflammation, improve metabolism, clear out damaged cells, and potentially reduce the risk of cancer, arthritis pain, and cognitive decline.

Different Approaches to Intermittent Fasting

There are several ways to practice intermittent fasting. One common approach is to restrict eating to a specific time window, such as 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with the remaining 16 hours spent fasting. However, there is no fixed schedule, and some people may choose to have more or less generous eating windows. It's important to find an intermittent fasting schedule that aligns with your lifestyle and preferences.

Is Intermittent Fasting Effective for Weight Loss?

Numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of intermittent fasting for weight loss. However, it's important to note that the success of intermittent fasting may be attributed to factors beyond fasting itself. Many practitioners of intermittent fasting also eliminate late-night eating, which aligns better with our body's natural circadian rhythms and may reduce fat storage. For some individuals, intermittent fasting may be difficult to adhere to, and a low-calorie Mediterranean diet combined with an earlier cut-off time for eating may be a more sustainable alternative.

Considerations and Precautions

While intermittent fasting can be beneficial for many individuals, it may not be suitable for everyone. It's important to consult with your doctor before starting any fasting regimen, especially if you have diabetes or heart disease. Additionally, intermittent fasting can be challenging to maintain in social situations or if your job requires dining out regularly. It's crucial to find a healthy eating plan that you can stick to in order to achieve long-term success.

The High-Fat Weight Loss Diet: The Ketogenic Approach

Contrary to conventional wisdom, some people find success in losing weight by consuming more fat, rather than less. The ketogenic diet, also known as the Keto diet, involves shifting the majority of calories consumed to come from healthy fats, with minimal intake of carbohydrates. This alteration in macronutrient ratios is believed to induce a metabolic state known as ketosis, where the body burns fat for energy instead of relying on glucose.

Understanding the Keto Diet

On a ketogenic diet, approximately 75% to 90% of your daily calorie intake comes from healthy fats, while protein makes up about 10-20%, and carbohydrates are limited to just 5%. By severely restricting carbohydrates, the body is forced to enter a state of ketosis, where it begins to burn stored fat for fuel. Research has shown that the keto diet can be effective for jump-starting weight loss and improving blood sugar levels.

Sustainability and Long-Term Effects

While the ketogenic diet can yield rapid initial weight loss and metabolic improvements, it can be challenging to maintain in the long term. Long-term studies on the sustainability and safety of the keto diet are still limited. It's important to approach any dietary changes with caution and consider the long-term implications for your overall health and well-being.

The Harvard Healthy Eating Plate: A Blueprint for Weight Loss

To guide your meal planning and balanced diet, Harvard has developed the Healthy Eating Plate. This model provides a visual representation of how to structure your meals for optimal health and weight loss.

Building a Healthy Eating Plate

Imagine a round dinner plate divided into two halves by a vertical line. One half should be filled with equal portions of whole grains and healthy protein sources such as fish, nuts, beans, and poultry. The other half should consist of two-thirds vegetables and one-third fruit, with an emphasis on variety and colorful options. Additionally, a glass of water is encouraged as the primary beverage, with limited consumption of milk. Healthy oils like canola or olive oil can be used for cooking or as dressings.

The Benefits of the Healthy Eating Plate

By following the guidelines of the Healthy Eating Plate, you can optimize your chances of maintaining a healthy weight and overall well-being. This approach encourages the consumption of natural, unprocessed foods and emphasizes the importance of plant-based dishes. Remember, adherence to a healthy eating plan that aligns with your preferences and lifestyle is key to achieving long-term success.

Conclusion

Embarking on a weight loss journey requires a sustainable approach to healthy eating habits and lifestyle changes. By prioritizing a balanced diet, embracing healthy eating patterns, considering intermittent fasting, and exploring different dietary approaches like the ketogenic diet, you can find the strategy that works best for you. Incorporating the principles of the Harvard Healthy Eating Plate into your meal planning will provide a blueprint for achieving your weight loss goals while promoting overall health. Remember, the key to success lies in finding a healthy eating plan that you can maintain in the long term, ensuring lasting results and a healthier lifestyle.

Animal Crossing Fish Dish Friday - #5

Brought to you by a marine biologist making up for last week...

...by covering 4 dishes that are all the same damn thing.

CLICK HERE FOR THE AC FISH EXPLAINED MASTERPOST!

Carpaccio di...

In ACNH: 1. Simply fish up a (from left to right) a Scallop, a Blue Marlin, a Salmon, or a Barred-Knifejaw to get the recipes. 2. Cook on a stove with the corresponding fish (from left to right) 2 Scallops; 1 Blue Marlin; 1 Salmon; 1 Barred-Knifejaw.

In Real Life: From Italy

Species of choice: Think of this as like, Italian sashimi - it's generally raw fish sliced insanely thinly. You can use any fish you like.

Other Ingredients:

-Olive Oil -Cold toppings you like...

Recipe: This is an appetizer, and there's really nothing to it. Get your fish and slice it really thin while raw (please be careful here - learn how to pick or prepare fish raw), then lay them out and drizzle the olive oil on top. Toppings are your choice, according to ACNH - lemon, salad, basil, lime, etc. look like some of the things ACNH has put on their Carpaccio dishes.

Eating raw fish comes with pros and cons. On one hand, raw fish maintains all of the benefits eating fish provides, particularly more omega 3 fatty acids than cooked fish does (though both options are low in fat and always have a lower carbon footprint than other meat options like beef). The con, however, is that there's always the risk of getting food poisoning or a parasitic infection.

Fish are full of parasites. Many fish - both marine and freshwater - harbor some life stage of a parasite, with many hoping their host fish gets consumed by their final host, like a marine mammal, for example. Many of these parasites remain inactive while at cooler temperatures and begin to react when heated, such as in the stomach of a mammal. Bacteria are relatively the same - they enjoy moist, warm environments to grow uncontrolled. This is why refrigeration was such a boon to humanity. It ensured that food was safe to eat, even days after capture, collection, or purchase and less people got sick from eating spoiled food. However, freezing doesn't *always* kill parasites, which is why cooking fish is the next best thing to keep yourself healthy.

Picture from here with a recipe!

So, why eat raw? Well, there are the benefits listed above, and if you're careful with your preparation - such as buying fresh, keeping fresh fish on ice or freezing it until use, and using clean knives to prepare your food - you can reap those rewards.

I'm not sure how many of you click the links I share, but if you're looking to make carpaccio - or any of the many raw fish dishes from around the world - please click the one above and learn how to lower your chances of getting sick from one of the healthiest proteins money can buy.

And there you have it. Bon appetite!

Sense and Other Specific Headcanons

What does your muse smell like?

Shane smells like the black coffee he drinks, the beverage that starts every one of his mornings, hints of a richness unfound anywhere else. Combined with touches of Old Spice Cologne, warm spring water and bar soap, campfires and freshly churned dirt, natural musk, Shane's scent is all his own.

What does your muse's hands feel like?

Rough and callused. From years of dedicated work as a deputy and as a survivor of the apocalypse thereafter, Shane's hands have been through hell. Hardened around the edges, scarred from where battle had been seen and fought. Almost like sandpaper in certain spots, muscles in the hands themselves strong, soft only toward those loved most.

What does your muse usually eat in a day?

Shane's day always begins with a fresh cup of black coffee. No sugar, no cream. Just straight black, but most always accompanied by some sort of breakfast treat. Life as an officer didn't always allow for a big and hearty breakfast, life of a survivor isn't all that much different. For those quick mornings, if he can, he'll grab something small to go with his coffee. A doughnut. A piece of toast with butter. Something easy to make and quick to eat. For days when he can actually enjoy the meal, sit and feast comfortably. Shane likes to go all out. Scrambled eggs, bacon, toast with jam, hashbrowns, pancakes and/or waffles, yogurt. It's all there. Lunch is usually a bit lighter, in terms of quantity. He'll go for the simple: a sandwich with chips on the side, maybe soup. A meal far more plain but never less satisfying. Dinner's much like lunch, never as heavy as breakfast, but still able to carry its own. More often than not, Shane settles for protein orientated dinner options. Big steaks. Big burgers. Big fillets of fish. Served with a side of veggies, potatoes or mixed greens, sometimes French fries, if he has the patience for the prep, sometimes pasta, it really depends on his mood and what he's craving.

Does your muse have a good singing voice?

No. Shane can't sing to save his life, but he does try with great effort! Though he's guaranteed to be a little off-pitch and off-key, he'll sing to his favorite songs until his heart's content. For his own enjoyment and the enjoyment of friends who are forced to hear him, he's so bad, he's almost good. Belting out his favorite Elvis tunes, or singing the chorus to any Pearl Jam classic, Shane takes center stage without fear.

Does your muse have any bad habits or nervous ticks?

Yup. He definitely does! In terms of bad habits, one is the fact that he drinks when he's upset. Shane doesn't have a dependency on the bottle, but when he's overly stressed about something, utterly depressed, it's where he turns to. A bottle of beer to soothe his hurting heart, a glass of nothing but good whiskey to calm his spirits. It's not the healthiest choice - Shane isn't proud of his habit - but it is one that he makes continuously whenever he's in that certain funk. Nervous ticks are few and far between, but one that he does have would be running a hand through his hair/scalp. Whenever the feelings of anxiousness creep over, instantly, Shane's hand is in his curls, roaming through them, touching them. Even with the buzzcut, fingertips are always rubbing his head, working out the worries as best as they can.

What does your muse usually look like/wear?

Shane's look never really changes, nor does what he chooses to wear. He's sported the same look for so many years, it's almost weird to see him without it. Curls styled by moose on top of his head, a buzzcut shaven clear to the scalp, with mindful eye of the electric razor, sometimes he has a beard, sometimes not. Outside of those four styles, Shane doesn't venture to try new things. Doesn't care to. In regards to what he wears, his go-to look is a nice pair of dark blue jeans and a basic t-shirt, usually black or brown. A pair of brown boots on his feet, a thick black belt across his hips, his clothing style is definitely casual and practical. Occasionally, he'll throw on a flannel, red plaid with detailing of black or navy blue.

Is your muse affectionate? How so?

Affection for Shane is most always saved for the people he loves or cares about. Warm embraces and tender kisses. He's not very touchy-feely with those he doesn't know, unless it's someone in honest trouble or in desperate need of help. Strangers won't come to know his physical affection at all, and enemies will only be welcomed to the brutality of his fists, his guns and weaponry. Around kids, though, especially those within his own group or community, he's a total softie and turns into a real teddy bear of a man. Very gentle and very affectionate.

What position does your muse sleep in?

Shane sleeps on his belly. Done so ever since he was a little boy, when Jean would rub his back to help him fall asleep. It's hard for him to find sleep in any other position.

Can you hear your muse in the hallway from another room?

Yes. Most definitely! Either by voice or the fall of his footsteps, Shane isn't exactly a fieldmouse of a man. He's loud and obnoxious. Even when he isn't in one of his tempers, he's just a commanding person and can be heard from any nearby space. One stomp from his foot, or one joyous laugh, and anyone who knows him would recognize them as belonging to Shane.

It had been a while since they'd gone out for their breakfast.

Nigel had given Gary the weekend off and so he and Romulus went on a heathy stroll into the city. They settled on going to Red's Dancing Diner for their food.

Once they were seated, Nigel gave the server their respective orders and gazed around joyfully at the activity in the bustling diner. From the cheery, jazz music blasting from the numerous speakers, Nigel bobbed his head and feet to the side as they waited.

"I always love coming in here" Nigel admitted.

"The food's never the healthiest in here" Romulus said with a glance towards the open kitchen at the counter. "All deep fried and covered in grease."

"You really are a health and fitness freak Rom" Nigel said with a smirk.

This was proved all the more when their meals arrived. Romulus had decided on some fish as he was keen on having plenty of protein in the mornings. Whereas Nigel had one of the biggest slices of cake Romulus had ever seen.

"That's not healthy" Romulus said disapprovingly.

"You insist that Gary makes us healthy meals" Nigel said, tutting. "I can eat whatever the fuck I like on his days off."

Thinking about young, freshly presented omega Tim who is tenderly fucked by his alpha, Bruce. And Bruce loves his little omega, even if Tim is a little on the younger side for presentation (12/13). Tim has only had two or three heats by now, and he is growing increasingly desperate for Bruce to pup him, to fuck him full of perfect little babies, but Bruce refuses for some reason.

He tells Tim that he's too slight, too small.

But Tim is desperate, so he looks into ideal omega body types, and he sees thick, heavyset omegas with big hips and fat chests, thick love handles and plush thighs. Bellies that are always round regardless of if they're burdened with pups.

Tim either enlists Alfred's help in initiating a diet change, or he does so himself, eating rich foods and taking lactation supplements so his body can grow to the ideal size so he can properly carry Bruce's precious pups.

Tim gains weight fast, like FAST fast. Bruce is almost concerned with how quickly his slight little omega fills out, but at the same time, Tim grows so quickly that his body can't keep up. Things like walking, changing, tying his shoes, going up stairs, simple things, become challenging for Tim. He is so dependent on Bruce for everything now, but they both love it so much.

Tim gets pregnant quickly, his new size increasing his fertility as well, and Bruce being more than eager to knock up his fat, happy little omega and make him even fatter and happier.

His waddle is pronounced and despite his age, Tim is a vision of fertility. Bruce can't keep his hands off of him, and Tim quickly becomes a house omega, not able to move v quickly (or v far, at least not on his own), so he stays in the Manor and tends to their children, of which they eventually have many, during the day, and helps run comms in the Cave at night

Just Tim being an ideal omega from a young age and loving it, the added weight makes him feel so sexy despite how hard it makes the easy things (like running after his many babies, or cleaning up after them and his alpha. Thank god for Alfred) 🥰🥰🥰

the beauty standard for omegas being nice and thick omegas who can be bitched with lots of pups🥺. I mean evolution wise it makes sense for the ones who carry pups to have plenty of fat for insulation from the weather, plenty of fat/water stores in case of famine or drout,, nice full tits to produce plenty of milk not just for their pups but for the pups of the entire community since children used to be reared by a village.

the healthiest omegas are the ones that are nice and big. it's a status symbol that a pack can afford to have their omega be nice and plush, it means they can afford rich and nutritious food. they're wealthy enough that the omega doesn't need to leave the home to work, and live they in a safe enough area and home that an omega could be bed bound and there's a guarantee nothing would happen to them.

there's a correlation between the weight of the omega carrying and the relative health of the pup once its born.

if tim wants to give bruce nice, healthy, strong pups he needs to be bigger. bruce is right. tim IS small. his fingers are bony, his thighs are slim, his waist is small enough for burcd to wrap his hands around. any pups he have will never be carried to term or they'll come out small and thin.

tim will be known as a terrible mother who starved their pups.

tim sobs just at the thought. so he makes a comprehensive diet plan. thick slabs of red meat compose his meals, carbohydrates, occasional sweets and lots of fatty fish and nuts.

tim eats until his stomach is full, until he need to lay down after a meal and feel as his stomach digests his meal.

tim is lucky he puts on weight easy. he knows bruce notices. bruce's eyes linger on tim more, alpha gaze dark and hungry on tim's fuller waist, rounded bottom, and soft stomach. his cheeks are fuller and bruce makes sure to kiss them as he fucks tim harder than he has before.

before tim looked like he’d break if bruce was too rough. now tim is built to take it.

tim coos at the sight if bruce's snarled face, cupping his face with pudgy hands as he holds tim's gull hips in a bruising grip and fucks tim's little pussy so hard tim feel the force in his throat.

"you gunna give me a puppy?" tim asks, voice slightly pleading and distant with pleasure "please! i wanna i wanna puppy please alpha."

bruce's brow is furrowed, ensure stretched across his face like it's agony. he's breathing heavily and when tim feels that knot starting to dorm at the base of his cock- rather than pull out like he did, words about worrying it would hurt tim falling off his tongue, bruce pushes in deeper.

tim feels that knot bloom inside the tight grip of his walls and arches up as bruce squeezes tim's fattened tits in his palms.

tim 'ah ah ah's' as bruce's hot cum spills into him, as it floods and drowns his pussy with seed.

tim he's...he's never felt so full.

Midoriya Izuku (Deku)

Midoriya is the definition of an overtrainer and we all see how it detriments him: tiredness caught up with him during a run with All-Might, he ‘barely passed’ the written portion of the entrance exam which isn’t normal for someone so academically inclined, and devoted to improvement. I might do the 10 month training plan at some point, but I wanted to go along with the theme of workouts at UA. Midoriya definitely still somewhat overtrains, he is always doing ‘distributed workouts’ which will be a key feature in this (at least for the vanity muscles, come on, he’s 14-17 in the series). He likely trains full body 4x a week which shouldn’t really be done. There comes a point of probable diminishing returns where the body is simply not able to cope with that much volume. However, Midoriya needs to train ‘every muscle’ which probably means a lot of compound movements per workout. He is also constantly working on his quirk which is more physical exertion. In terms of his musculature, he only looks small compared to Todoroki and Bakugou because of his height. Additional factors include he only began working out recently, burns way too many calories (his quirk is literally stockpiling energy and releasing it), his overtraining/lack of sleep, and training mainly for strength not hypertrophy. Which leads me to say, strength training usually comes with hitting failure without a ton of volume, saving this workout from being 2000 reps of everything. 

Diet: Midoriya is seen eating a variety of foods, he seems to appreciate fried meats like Fuyumi’s Karaage and especially KATSUDON! His favorite food! His mom seems to ordinarily prepare him healthy meals that include fish, eggs, vegetables, and rice. He drinks tea fairly often (caffeine is a stimulant and has benefits). He also likes sweets, taiyaki, cake and the like. A balanced diet is the takeaway here,Midoriya can enjoy the modern diet to the fullest, he needs to eat to get stronger and perform better. As normal people, just mind how you feel, and adjust accordingly. Katsudon is fairly balanced, plenty of macros, especially protein, served with a vegetable side and it’s a great dish to add to the weekly rotation. This program is pretty strenuous, so protein to help those muscles recover, vitamins and creatine may also be recommended according to preference. 

Recovery: Midoriya might take advantage of the school infirmary way more often than others, physical therapy for his injuries and healing quirks for much simpler things like soreness is probably how he manages. He’s not as well off as Bakugou, but he seems to enjoy heat therapy such as onsens, compression items (for injuries yes, for soreness, I’m not sure), and he seems like the type to pop a voltaren/ibuprofen/paracetamol (otc painkiller, I’m guilty of taking a panadol/tylenol when I push too hard). 

Similar to Bakugou: It goes without saying, you might want to do a Week A PE on Mon, Wed Fri then a Week B 4 x full body . Anime people are… built different. I’ll be doing 2 lighter workouts and 2 heavier ones just because it makes sense. Incidental training may occur on these ‘lighter days’. WARNING: The volume of this program may be too much to do in one week. Just don’t. Yes, some people are also built differently. Let’s not get ourselves Rhabdomyolysis shall we? 

Rhabdomyolysis: https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/rhabdomyolysis-symptoms-causes-treatments 

While Midoriya is great, he isn’t the healthiest in terms of recovery, so he destroys himself during the week, and rests on weekends. School isn’t too challenging for him, so he has enough time for himself to do his homework and readings. 

**Optional Incidental Training: To be done during study breaks/upon waking such as the curls and grip training Deku is constantly seen repping out. These can be supplemented with the ‘lighter workouts’. I’ll put some examples of when he might do these: 

3 x 20 Pushups (Upon waking)   

100 Crunches (Upon waking) 

6 x 10 Light bicep curls (80% of normal working weight) (During study breaks, 10 curls at every hour mark) 

4 x 25 Gripper (each side) OR 100 seconds of dead hanging (Gripper: during class/Hanging: right after school, to stretch the spine and train grip)

Saturday: REST

Sunday: REST

 On a personal tangent here, this workout is special to me. Midoriya is who got me working out, trying hard in my studies at the tail end of high school. I take inspiration from him to do my best to do things when I don't feel like it even if I fail most of the time. I had few friends, was outcast, tired constantly, and in poor health because I didn’t know any better. He’s what sent me down the rabbit-hole of just trying to be better. All of us are doing that in this life, and sometimes we don’t succeed, but just like Midoriya keep going to be a better you! On the day I’m writing this, I was reminded of another thing to work towards: not just a strong body but a strong mind.

The Mediterranean diet has been linked to a lower risk of heart disease, diabetes, cognitive decline, and certain types of cancer, according to research. It also helps people lose weight and live longer. Here's the Mediterranean diet for beginners:

Stock Your Kitchen

Keeping the appropriate staple items on hand makes this diet much easier to stick to. Purchase products such as canned beans, whole grains, almonds, seeds, olive oil, tomatoes, fresh or dried fruits, vegetables, herbs, and spices.

Plan Out Your Meals

Plan your meals such that they feature plant-based proteins like tofu, lentils, and beans. 3 servings of whole grains and 5 servings of produce each day should be your goals. Consume chicken or fish twice a week and red meat just a few times per month. Use olive oil for cooking rather than butter, and season with herbs and spices rather than salt.

Incorporate Lifestyle Habits

The diet is enhanced by the Mediterranean lifestyle. Enjoy meals with others, eat with awareness, get regular exercise, control your stress, get enough rest, and take time for yourself.

Follow a Meal Plan

Create a food plan to make getting started easier. Weekly shopping lists, recipes, and cooking advice are included in our beginner-friendly Mediterranean diet weekly meal plan. You can learn how to adopt the Mediterranean diet into your lifestyle by following this simple approach.

Talking about cooking and health and stuff.

CW TW for calorie counting, restricting, etc. If anything along the lines of what one may consider 'dieting' (though I don't consider this to be a diet) is triggering for you, skip over this post. Keep yourself safe 💜

I forgot how much better home cooked food is than restaurant food. Even 'nicer' restaurants (like sit-down places, nothing expensive, I'm poor and live in rural Ohio lmao) can't compare to home cooked food (the exception is like, sushi, but I'm not exactly in an area where I can get fresh fish I would feel comfortable consuming raw outside of a restaurant).

I've been in a health slump for almost a year now, since maybe last spring. Some long-time mutuals might remember I made posts sometime in 2021-22 about seeing a doctor about dietary concerns due to my somewhat high cholesterol (because I basically live on cheese and eggs). I was doing well for a while, until the app I used to track my meals started glitching. It just wouldn't save anything I put into it, and I had to go looking for another one that didn't suck and wasn't paywalled. I found one that was alight but still required a lot more effort than the one I had been using (which had also been recommended by my doctor).

So I fell off of tracking for a while. Life stuff got in the way and I didn't have the time, energy, or motivation to keep up with consistently cooking at home, and takeout was just more convenient. Unfortunately it was a boil the frog situation, in which I didn't notice the gradual decline of my mental health during this time. When you hear shit about food having an influence over your mental wellness, it's absolutely true. And you don't really realize it until you start cooking your own food. Even if you aren't cooking the healthiest thing in the world, it's going to make you feel better mentally and physically than any restaurant or takeout food will.

I've been wanting to get back to being healthy because I'm tired of being tired even after 2 cups of coffee and a bottle of dr pepper throughout the day. And because I'm sure my cholesterol is back up to the Shitty Range again, but I'll need to wait until the next blood test to find that out.

I had to wait until after the holidays to restock my kitchen with real food because no fucking way was I shopping around Christmas and New Year's. So now I have real food again, and it's wonderful. I already feel better overall. I haven't had this much energy in like, a year. I actually wanted to clean today and I fucking hate cleaning with every fiber of my being.

And yes, I am restricting calories, because this was what my doctor told me to do. I'm not technically under his supervision anymore, but that's just because he had told me I was doing well and didn't need him to check in on me every month, but I could go back if I wanted, if I had any issues. I'm not making my daily calorie goal/limit public because it's tailored to my height, weight, age, and birth gender, so it won't suit everyone and I also don't want people screaming at me and telling me I'm 'starving' or some shit (I'm all for body positivity, but I really hate the toxic, anti-health side of it).

But I need that restriction and tracking because I probably have undiagnosed BED, and it helps me a lot with that. Without it, I tend to eat absurdly sized meal once a day that is lacking in well-balanced nutrition, and leaves me feeling physically unwell. Or I graze on food all day that has zero nutritional value and also leaves me feeling unwell.

This isn't about weight loss for me, though that is a nice side effect and I won't lie when I say it's exciting fitting into clothes I haven't been able to wear in years. It's about health - physical and mental - and I know I feel best when I'm getting enough protein (something I struggle with when not tracking) and eat a controlled amount of calories.

Anyway it's just nice to feel good and energetic and healthy again after so long and I just wanted to ramble about it I guess.

Also, I know that not everyone can cook for themselves, for whatever reason. Disability, money (I'm on food stamps and it's the only reason I can afford healthy food), time, etc. I am in no way trying to shame anyone for not being able to or not wanting to cook. I don't care what anyone else does. This post is just about me and what makes me feel happy and healthy.

Treatments For Acne at Home

Acne is a common skin condition that affects most people at some point. It’s usually not serious, but severe cases may need oral medicine and topical treatments. Many milder cases are treated at home with products that can be purchased at a drugstore or supermarket. Some of these are over-the-counter (OTC), while others require a prescription from your doctor.

Some of the most common treatments for acne at home are face and body washes, cleansers, pads, and treatment lotions that contain an ingredient called benzoyl peroxide. This is probably the most effective OTC ingredient for reducing acne.

Benzoyl peroxide works by killing bacteria that causes acne. It is usually safe, but it can irritate your skin and make it dry and flaky. It is important to start with a low-strength product and gradually increase the strength of your product as your skin gets used to it.

You can also try products containing other acne-fighting ingredients, such as salicylic acid, niacinamide, and alpha hydroxy acids. You can find them in many types of over-the-counter and prescription face and body washes, gels, and lotions. It can take time to find the right products for your skin, so don’t give up if you don’t see results quickly.

Another way to help reduce acne is to exfoliate your skin. However, be careful when using scrubs, because they can be too abrasive and damage your skin. OTC scrubs typically contain harsh chemicals, but you can make your own at home by mixing a little sea salt or brown sugar with some ground oatmeal and fresh mint leaves. Make a paste and apply it to your face, paying special attention to problem areas. Then rinse off.

You can also use homemade face masks to fight acne, such as yogurt and honey or cinnamon and honey. Honey has antibacterial and antioxidant properties, while cinnamon has anti-inflammatory and antifungal properties. You can also add a few drops of tea tree oil to any of these masks for extra protection against acne. Tea tree oil can sting your skin a bit, but it is considered one of the most effective home remedies for acne.

Diet isn’t an official cause of acne, but it can contribute to how much you break out. Some people who eat the healthiest diet in the world still get acne, while others with unhealthy diets seem to never have a problem. You can make dietary changes to improve your skin from the inside out by taking supplements and adding more whole foods, such as fish, nuts, vegetables, and whole grains. Seeing a naturopath or dietician who has experience with natural skin care is also a good idea. They can guide you through the pros and cons of different natural remedies for acne.

Our Acne Doctor Australia doctors can prescribe medications your family doctor (GP) can’t prescribe. These special medications are the most effective in clearing stubborn acne. Talk to your GP first before making your appointment with us. Ask them for a referral to Acne Doctors at Teledermatologist.

Check whether you are taking the right for Diet for Rheumatoid Arthritis or not?

About

Arthritis is a devastating condition and does not discriminate in terms of age, gender or ethnic origin. Anyone can be a target. It causes constant pain, stiffness and swelling in the joints and surrounding tissues. Those places in the body where bones come together – the knees, wrists, fingers, toes, and hips. The two most common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

Best foods for RA sufferers

Here’s the Top 10 of the Best diet for arthritis:-

1.    Oily Fish

Salmon, mackerel, sardines and trout are high in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to have potent anti-inflammatory effects. Omega-3 supplements decrease joint pain intensity, morning stiffness, the number of painful joints and use of pain relievers in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

2.    Tumeric

Many rheumatoid arthritis suffers search for homeopathic options. One supplement that has been used to treat arthritis for millennia is turmeric, that golden-coloured spice commonly used in curries. Turmeric contains a chemical called curcumin, and scientists believe that this chemical may have anti-inflammatory properties.

3.    Garlic

It’s packed with health benefits. It’s been proven that garlic and its components have been shown to have cancer-fighting properties. They also contain compounds that may lower the risk of heart disease and dementia. For RA patients, garlic has been shown to have an anti-inflammatory effect that may help decrease symptoms of arthritis.

Ginger

Besides giving a boost of flavour to teas, soups and sweets, ginger may also help ease the symptoms of arthritis. One study found that ginger and its components blocked the production of substances that promote inflammation in the body. Consuming ginger in fresh, powdered or dried form may reduce inflammation and aid in reducing symptoms of arthritis.

5.    BROCCOLI

It’s widely appreciated that broccoli is one of the healthiest foods out there. In fact, its strongly believed to be associated with reduced inflammation. Broccoli has been associated with reduced inflammation. It also contains sulforaphane, which may have anti-inflammatory properties, according to test-tube studies.

6.    WALNUTS

Never say nuts to these. They’re nutrient-dense and just packed with compounds that can help reduce the inflammation associated with joint disease. Analysis has shown that eating walnuts is associated with reduced markers of inflammation. They’re also especially high in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to decrease the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.

7.    BERRIES

They have loads of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals, which may part account for their unique ability to decrease inflammation. For example, those having two servings of strawberries a week are 14 percent less likely to have an elevated level of inflammatory markers in the blood.

8.    SPINACH AND OTHER LEAFY GREENS

These are full of nutrients and some of their components are said to help decrease inflammation caused by arthritis. Several studies have found that a higher intake of fruit and vegetables is linked to lower levels of inflammation. Spinach, in particular, contains the antioxidant kaempferol which has been shown to decrease the effects of the inflammatory agents associated with rheumatoid arthritis.

9.    GRAPES

Nutrient-dense, high in antioxidants and they also have anti-inflammatory properties. Resveratrol is an antioxidant present in the skin of grapes. In one study, resveratrol showed potential for helping prevent the thickening of the joints associated with arthritis by blocking the formation of rheumatoid arthritis cells. Its extract reduces inflammation related to RA.

10.OLIVE OIL

Well recognised for its anti-inflammatory properties, olive oil can have beneficial effect on arthritis symptoms. Rheumatoid arthritis patients who consumed either a fish oil or an olive oil capsule each day for 24 weeks showed a near 40 percent decrease in symptoms in the olive oil group and 55 percent in the fish oil group. In a study of over 300 olive oil consumption was associated with a lower risk of RA.

An alkaline life-style the place dependence is simply on greens and fruits may go primarily based on experimentation. However is it sufficient to fulfill the physique’s physiology? Will physique capabilities run usually with out acid-based meals? The identical query can ask for alkaline-based diets. To reply these questions, one ought to have a primary understanding of the chemistry and physiology of acid-base steadiness. There’s a third choice, and that includes an acid-alkaline primarily based weight-reduction plan. In such a weight-reduction plan, components of each are mixed to complement and complement one another. This includes selecting the perfect and healthiest meals from each worlds. Also read:Everything You Need to Know About Biotin For Acne Treatment Allow us to think about the right way to preserve and enhance bone well being. An alkaline-acid steadiness is required to make this succeed. Train could also be a consider strengthening bones. But when the acid-alkaline steadiness within the physique is off, an individual will nonetheless expertise avoidable bone loss in the long term. To counter this, an alkaline weight-reduction plan ought to be thought-about. When one goes “alkaline,” which means he shall be sustaining the physique’s acid-base between 6.5, which is barely acidic and seven.5, which is barely alkaline. Sustaining such pH stage will depend upon the meals an individual consumes. When meals are digested, some will end in acidic by-products accumulating within the physique. These are the meals that are acid-forming. Whereas others will end in alkaline by-products, the alkaline-forming meals. Combining a weight-reduction plan of acid-alkaline primarily based meals will be traced again to the Stone Age ancestors. They used to eat as a part of their every day intakes, pure meals like nuts, seeds, fruits, greens and root crops. These have been enhanced with hunted animal meats, fish, and eggs. Surprisingly, with out being conscious, our ancestors have been already on a median pH-balanced weight-reduction plan. By way of generations, the physique physiology has developed into adapting this weight-reduction plan. Individuals normally eat acid-forming meals like meat, eggs, beans, fish and different protein-rich meals. However this have to be balanced with loads of alkaline-forming meals like vegatables and fruits, seeds, nuts, and spices.
