Anyone seen the film Fed Up?

I've not seen this particular one, but there have been several over the last several years like it, with the same message.

With this film, same as the others like it, they are only effective if people learn something from it, and apply some changes.

A few years ago we watched Food Inc, or some other similar film about the food industry, with some friends. One of the couples with us were struggling with some weight issues and were making some small changes - getting some exercising in, eating more fruit and veg, etc - but with little effect.
One of things they were shocked by, despite reading labels and trying to make better food decisions, was that 4 grams of sugar was approximately 1 teaspoon. When something said it had 24 grams of sugars per serving, it was equivalent to 6 teaspoons. This just floored them. They really had no idea what a gram of sugar was, when they were reading the per serving label.
There were grocery choices they had been making because it had 32 grams of sugar, instead of 62 grams, and thought they were making good choices. They were, kinda. Just not good, informed choices.

That 4 grams sugar = 1 teaspoon thing, probably a 10 second blurb in whatever film we'd been watching, made a huge impact. They took the time to learn about all the other info displayed on labels, and changed the way they shop for groceries. Simply, they purchase more groceries from the outside perimeter of the grocery store - produce, bakery, fresh meats / seafood, and dairy - and less from the aisles - processed, refined food items, with higher sugar and sodium content.

With just changing what they were eating, they are now managing their weight easily. They also feel better about making good food purchases, now that they are wise to what the labels and ingredient list means.

That's wonderful to know, Emerson, thanks for that and the tips. I'm going to have to check that film out.

Miles, hope everything's okay.

Blurt: after the past 48 hours (36 actually), my summer bucket list now includes learning the Thriller dance and relearning how to hula hoop. I was totally shown up by a 4th grader on the hula hoop. Not cool.

Everything is okay, thank you. It's just a busy weekend. :D

My daughters and I were really digging in the bins at a local thrift store, the kind where the deals are unbelievable but you have to really search and get your hands dirty in the process. We're all acting in a camp for the next two weeks and needed some final costuming pieces.

I, predictably, end up digging through the books. I find some great books, amazing deals (spent a total of $1.29 on 4 books! Squee!). My favorite part of the trip, though, is when this small, very wrinkly (beautifully so), gray haired woman picks up the copy of 50 Shades of Grey. She stands there holding it, then leans over to one daughter (approx 40) and asks her if she's read it, she condescendingly says "No mom, and I don't care for that. Put it back!" She doesn't put it back, but goes to the other daughter (my age 34-36) and asks her if she's read it. She smiles softly and says yes, but doesn't elaborate. Her mother asks something else, and the daughter says "I think there are two books." I chime in, "There are 3." They both look at me and smile. Stuffy daughter comes back and takes it out of her hands and puts it in the bin.

Okay, fuck you lady. Who are you to tell your mother what she can and can't read. Also, I am fully aware of the multitude of problems with this novel and how many believe it sheds an untrue light on BDSM practitioners as damaged, but that's not how I took it. It's a Harlequin romance with some kinky sex. I loved that lady for seeing it and becoming curious. I hope I'm as curious as her at her age and far beyond. I felt sorry for the daughter, though. Based on this short observation, it's hard to imagine she's anything other than a stuffy prude. I very nearly bought the book to give to her outside.

I think I might start people watching at thrift stores.

At the risk of chumming the waters while the latest batch of fap-ulating fish are swimming in the HT, questing after beat sock gravy inspiration, I am unable to overlook the use of “50 Shades of Grey” and “Stuffy” in a post.

A gift, for the masterbating minnows.

^^ click at your own risk ^^
 
Around here, disclaimers are always tiny. If you're anything like me, even if the warning were larger, you'd probably still click it. The curiosity always gets the best of me. :)

Yeah...I would have clicked it, too. No doubt.



Well, there is that, huh...

I'm just not sure we're comparing apples and apples here. A tiny disclaimer fails to do its only job of warning people (despite the clear reality that people ignore such warnings). A man who is less than well-endowed is certainly very capable of pleasing his partner.

Word. My tiny disclaimer has never been an issue when providing partners with pleasure.



And yeah, y'all would've clicked it, no matter how well endowed my warning.;)
