Eh, I know. Unfortunately, I let a couple of my kitties stay out nights when they wanted to and they still got hit by cars. Now, I stay up until they get their asses back in the house, whether they want to or not. They probably hate me for it too, so it's questionable whether or not it's worth it other than to appease my insecurities.

Fuck that. I cracked ribs falling of my bike and I still got back on.

Bullshit.

When was the last time you were on a bike?

Wut?

No, you aren't.

You tell 'em gurl.

No... I think that's closer to average college ball. Top level college and pro athletes are higher than that. The problem with BMI, of course, is that it doesn't differentiate between fat and muscle, so just meeting those numbers doesn't indicate how good an athlete actually is.

No thanks. I don't want to give you a heart attack.

I'm not a football player. I'm using a prototypical football "athlete" (as in the generic classification rather than a specific position) for a FBS "Power Five" team. Those guys tend to run in high 20's BMI based on height and weight (and assuming muscle mass). The average ball player is going to be lower than that just because smaller schools don't have the kind of nutritional programs and facilities to build human freaks.

Barely. I think safeties are supposed to be just over 200 with a BMI in the low 20s.

It's the agave syrup in particular that is questionable. Oatmeal is often served with brown sugar which is bad enough, but that syrup is problematic. In general, adding sugar to anything is going introduce carbs that are not easily processed.

If it weren't for my bike, I'd probably would never get cardio because going out on the river path every Saturday is my favorite thing to do. It's just a 13mile loop, an hour of fun in the morning before the sun comes out. But, now that I'm older, I have to kind of watch my heart rate and make sure I don't go crazy on the attacks. Also, I have to avoid falling off my bike... again. That shit hurts.

What about cycling? I mean spinning on a stationary at low resistance.

He picked up the receiver, and then the comely lass fed him the finest gouda in all of New Mexico.

What Sawdy said. When you fast, your body attempts to conserve fat and your metabolism slows. On top of that, you're eating something that has questionable nutritional value. You're likely to gain rather than lose weight doing that.

It does feel really fucking good, though.

Lol. I weight train to by carrying my weight across the room for a beer.

Yeah yeah, I know.

That's.... vague.

I keep mine short so you can't see the grey. It just looks like I have shitty highlights.

It's not just your lifespan that's impacted, it's your quality of life.

I'm not fucking with you. Diabetes is a nasty disease, and as much as I like to poke at you, I don't want you to have to go through what my dad went through.

You need to lose half your body weight, at least, for that to happen.

You being obese exponentially increases your likelihood of developing Type 2 diabetes.
