What are you eating ??

Homemade pizza

BMI isn't a very good indicator IMO. Is a one size fits all approach to weight.

Exactly. No differentiation from fat and muscle content. Says my healthy weight range starts at 56.7 kg. If I was that weight I’d look like a starving ice addict.

[Perkles]

French toast just bought coach Greggs cookbook and going to follow it for a while

[Kwacky]

Smoked mackerel with peppercorns.

[Stonesie]

Gregg's bacon and omelette butty with ketchup

Whilst I'm most certainly ignorant in this area, I wonder how much the disparity between what the scientific health experts know to actually be a healthy weight for the human animal, and what we see as "looking good", is down to changing public perception.?

I'll reference that ^ consideration, by citing this image from that literary epic; WALL-E

The indicator for healthy weight is regarded usually in the terms of how much excess fat, especially visceral fat you are carrying. Because muscle is denser than fat you can weigh heavier being fit and healthy with a very low body fat percentage that some one of a similar size that has more fat percentage, yet their BMI would be a lower number. BMI was developed in the 70’s as a quick indicator of obesity risk, but as always, one size does not fit all.

Thanks for the explanation Kiwi, however knowing that wouldn't stop me from taking the opportunity to take a cheeky little dig at those of us who are currently feeling "a little touchy" on the subject.

,,,The indicator for healthy weight is regarded usually in the terms of how much excess fat, especially visceral fat you are carrying. Because muscle is denser than fat you can weigh heavier being fit and healthy,,,,

Whilst I emphatically agree with all of that.....
Playing devil's advocate; Our skeletal muscle makes up 40-50% of our body mass, and muscle is 15-20% more dense than fat.
Therefore wouldn't that make the difference between the someone who had no fat whatsoever, & someone who had no muscle whatsoever (everyone falls between those impossible extremes) at the very most 10% difference (20% of 50% ) ?



2x slices of Toast & Marmalade, with a cup of coffee.

Ok, you’ve just convinced me I’m still a fat c**t

Heinz tomato soup. The king of canned soups.

[D41]

Mushroom & cheese omelet, 5 rashers of bacon, hash browns, English muffin.

[Kwacky]

I had some leftover Veggie lasagne. Very nice indeed.

[D41]

Ham sandwich for breakfast.

[Kwacky]

A vegan kebab. It was bloody lovely.

[kiwikrasher]

Any guesses? #quarantinediet

[Jack]

Is that regurgitated ?

[StMarks]

Is that regurgitated ?

Shhhhhhh.!
Just because the guy in the next door room couldn't keep it down, doesn't mean that "contractually adequate meal" should go to waste. -
Such waste would impact on the facilities profit margin, wouldn't it.?
May even help reduce the complaints of the meals being tasteless.

[D41]

Creamy pasta w/ mushrooms & olives..??

I'd suggest a glass of red to really bring out the flavor.
Or disguise it. Whatever.

[kiwikrasher]

You were actually pretty close D, just no pasta as I’ve asked for no carbs, no sugar. Sometimes they meet that requirement, sometimes they just put the sticker on and hope I don’t notice the half container of potato.

In fairness it didn’t taste as bad as it looked. The chicken bits were edible and the veg that hadn’t completely disintegrated weren’t too bad. The creamy component was the consistency of dish water so just bobbed for the good bits like apples in a barrel and tossed the rest.

Only 7 more days...
