DC's Winter Bulk 2019

[MrKleen73]

Didnt even think about the skins. I just chopped them up based off a recipe I found online

I know they have a lot of the fiber but I just like them is why I asked.

Dont know if you noticed from my thread. I never eat potatoes. I just hate all the time it takes to make them. My carbs are either rice pasta or bread...trying to cut back on the bread. Think there is a difference in the carb of a potato and the carbs of rice?

There is a difference other than what has already been mentioned above, and especially if you cook them then cool them off. Which would support you baking several at a time and refrigerating them and just reheating when you are ready to eat. They have Resistant Starches in them. When you cool them after cooking they get a lot more resistant starches in them.

This explains the main benefit of Resistant Starches.
Resistant starch is a carbohydrate that resist digestion in the small intestine and ferments in the large intestine. As the fibers ferment they act as a prebiotic and feed the good bacteria in the gut. There are several types of resistant starch. They are classified by their structure or source.

Feeding the good bacteria in the gut is a great benefit as it improves gut health and digestion. The more good bacteria that grows the less bad bacteria grows and digestion improves, gas production is lessened as well.

So you could bake them several at a time then keep them in the fridge and pull out when needed then there is no inconvenience or wait when you want to eat them later.

I think in the Vertical Diet Stan Efferding suggests eating at least two good size potatoes a week for this if I remember correctly. That diet is all about improving digestion.

The vertical diet recommends one potato per day as a nutritional base, for the potassium, digestion and bit of fiber. Also one orange for the C, fiber & potassium. From there carbs are typically increased via rice.

You will notice potatoes are much more filling for same amount of carbs as rice - if trying to decrease hunger, you wouldn’t want to use any rice and use more potatoes to stay more full.

That bedroom toys meme with the hot wheels was great!

There is PF next to Home Depot, and Reps Gym Across Telegraph from Walmart, and the Taylor Rec Center Gym on Goddard. Then Victory Gym in Brownstown, and Oakwood Gym in Melvindale.

Another day of Double Red Donations. Time to drop the Hemocrit, and Hemoglobin

Modern “gyms” in that pic are really just “Fitness Centers”. Sad to me that so many young boys won’t get to grow up with a chance to get exposed to a real gym. Not that there were always the best role models in dingy old gyms, but there was some positive masculine influence to be had that is lost in this age of chrome fitness centers and earbuds where everyone is doing their own thing in total social isolation. Just being around some older men and listening to them talk, and encourage each other. You can’t get that from most places these days.

They just had a ridiculously good deal they were running direct where I picked up a free box of MRE bars, BAR bars, and a 2 lber of protein (I chose the Green Beret), a t-shirt and sweatshirt. All of that was free with my order.

You shouldn't when I say it cause I don't use that term lightly after being Blown up 49 times.

Glad you said that because I had written that brand off entirely. I will probably give them a try now.

I do miss this about the gym back in the day. Talking with each other asking what people were training and working out with them if they were doing the same body part sometimes. Used to be a communal thing. Now I am one of the people in my earbuds shutting most of the others out. It is nice to go to some of the warehouse type gyms that actually have motivating music playing and people around talking and lifting supporting one another. It's an atmosphere I miss, but they are all about 30 min from my house and charge a premium since they consider themselves specialty gyms... So I don't get to them very often.
