Tips on Grilling Food Safety

[mwahmichelle]

the correct way to come out of a fast 🎀

i’m not a health acc, nor am i an ed acc, but i see a lot of girlies ending their fasts wrong, and that can be super dangerous. life threatening, even. so i decided to write thus cus i have s lot of experience with fasting 🫶🏼

(if on a liquid diet, skip to step 4)

1. time

it’s a super simple process, but it’s definitely time consuming. the amount of time you were fasting is the amount of time it takes to come out of a fast. (e.g. one year i fasted for all of ramadan, even at night. i only fasted for two weeks, then slowly incorporated food back into my diet for the other two weeks)

2. liquid food

i saw someone eat an apple straight after their fast.

you cannot under any circumstances do that!!

shocking your system with food is dangerous. the first thing you should be having is a teaspoon of *blended* apple in a glass of water. (blend a peeled apple with a little bit of water to get the right consistency. do not use store bought apple juice)

it’s gross, but it’s necessary.

slowly over time, increase the ratio, until you are just drinking the blended apple. (the amount of time it takes depends on the amount of time you fasted)

3. liquid food cont.

once you start drinking just the apple, start mixing in other fresh fruits and veggies - preferably ones with a lot of nutrients. make sure it’s not too heavy.

(side note: don’t add any milk or yogurt to the smoothies nothing but plain water!)

4. food (kinda?)

you can’t eat normally just yet, just a little more to go!! there are two options of how to do this step

one is to make the smoothies chunkier, so you have something to chew

the second is cutting yourself a *tiny* piece of apple and chewing it until you physically can’t anymore.

they are pretty similar, so it’s up to you :) (make sure to chew very well for both btw, not just the second option)

as always, slowly increase the mount of solids until…

5. FOOD! (finally 😮‍💨)

congrats! you can now eat normally!! 🥳🥳🥳

it sucks that it takes so long, but i cannot stress enough how important it is! people have actually died from ending a fact wrong before. please look after your health 🤍

id you don’t like apples, or are allergic, you can substitute them for blueberries, though you’ll have to strain the skin out until you can start chewing 🤷🏼‍♀️ (if you don’t like blueberries, then use cucumbers or lettuce, idk)

i rly hope this helped someone. pls be safe 🫶🏼🫶🏼

There's no reason not to tip at a restaurant in the United States of America unless you are either A) a confused foreigner who has no idea that if you don't tip, your waitstaff WON'T GET PAID FOR THEIR WORK or B) a selfish asshole.

If you can afford the luxury of going out to eat, your budget for that expense best include a tip. If you don't wanna pay a tip, go get fast food. Buy food at a convenience store. Cook for yourself. Whatever. Loads of other options that are more cost-efficient for consumers than going out to eat anyway. If you are demanding food that is SERVED to you hot then you best be prepared to PAY FOR THE SERVICE YOU ARE DEMANDING.

The tipping system is fucked up in the way that workers' income relies on the politeness and generosity of random members of the public, and that it's completely legal for them to be stiffed out of their regular earnings by cheap assholes. I wish I didn't have to personally do my part in making sure my waiter can make rent at the end of the month. I wish they just got compensated regularly for their work like any other job! But they don't, and everybody knows that, and I still sometimes go out to restaurants and order food, so while that is a reality and I am contributing to that system I will make sure to compensate the servers for their work as I am reasonably expected to do.

IF YOU ENCOUNTER A WORKER WHO DEPENDS ON TIPS FOR THEIR REGULAR EARNINGS, THEN FUCKING TIP THEM SO THEY CAN AFFORD TO LIVE

How can I lose weight quickly?

Losing weight quickly is not always the healthiest or most sustainable approach, as rapid weight loss can lead to muscle loss, nutrient deficiencies, and a higher likelihood of regaining weight later on. However, if you're looking to lose weight in a healthy and effective manner, here are some tips:

Set realistic goals: Aim for a gradual and sustainable weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week. Rapid weight loss may be tempting, but it's not typically recommended for long-term success.

Adopt a balanced and nutritious diet: Focus on consuming a variety of whole foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Limit your intake of processed foods, sugary snacks, and beverages.

Watch your portion sizes: Be mindful of portion sizes to avoid overeating. Use smaller plates and bowls, and listen to your body's hunger and fullness cues.

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes thirst can be mistaken for hunger, so staying hydrated may help prevent unnecessary snacking.

Engage in regular physical activity: Incorporate both cardiovascular exercises (e.g., jogging, swimming, cycling) and strength training (e.g., weightlifting, bodyweight exercises) into your routine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity each week, along with strength training exercises twice a week.

Reduce sedentary behavior: Minimize the time you spend sitting or lying down throughout the day. Incorporate more movement into your routine, such as taking regular breaks to stretch or walk around.

Get enough sleep: Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Sufficient sleep plays a crucial role in weight management as it regulates hunger hormones and supports overall well-being.

Manage stress: Find healthy ways to cope with stress, such as practicing mindfulness, engaging in hobbies, or talking to a supportive friend or professional. Stress can sometimes lead to emotional eating or other unhealthy behaviors.

Monitor your progress: Keep track of your food intake, exercise, and weight changes. This can help you identify patterns, stay accountable, and make adjustments as needed.

Remember, sustainable weight loss takes time and commitment. It's important to focus on long-term lifestyle changes rather than seeking quick fixes. Consult with a healthcare professional or a registered dietitian for personalized advice and guidance based on your specific needs and
