Comment on Is it really worth the BS for a couple more years?
Mickey7@lemmy.world 5 days agoI think some confusion over the post was that some people only eat crazy health food stuff. Never ever have a cocktail. Everyday they blend some ultra “supposedly” good for you shakes. If they ever ate a hamburger they would just die. In my opinion those people have taken the “healthy” lifestyle on as a religion.
The people I identify with eat healthy foods like chicken, and I don’t mean chicken nuggets. They limit their drinking to only a few days a week. They exercise at least an hour a day and I mean a real exercise like on a commercial grade elliptical or even an hour long bike ride. But they will occasionally have a dessert or a hamburger. They stay at their idea weight but continue to enjoy life.

That’s great, it sounds like we’re on a similar page! I think your post managed to hit a nerve because there is a definite number of people who once they finish college and land a decent job they just…decay. They work sitting in a chair then go home and do hobbies sitting in chairs, they don’t get any meaningful physical activity in any given week and they joke about how unhealthy their lifestyle is. It seemed to me and probably others that this was where this post came from was a place of joking about how badly you (the royal you, not necessarily you specifically) treat your body, and our society is really well setup for people to do this and for it to seem perfectly normal
