i was just informed by a “personal trainer”…who works at costco that…
keto is super dangerous and i’m gonna get gout, kidney stones, lose bone density, ruin my liver, and overall eff myself up and he could cite references
bless his heart…he offered to go to the doctor with me to prove it…all while eating lindt chocolate samples :joy:
finally i just said “do you think i’m stupid and wouldn’t do research?” and rattled off phinney, volek, fung, taubes, naimans, noakes, etc
most of which i wouldn’t have known without you guys
thanks for having my back :blush:

i also made a new friend who’s sons have done keto with success and i invited her here…no i didn’t invite him…i like you guys too much :joy:

Sounds like the only threat is that your personal trainer’s career will suffer and die an early death.

I swear, I’m having a harder and harder time not carrying a rusty railroad spike to hand these idiots as I tell them in significantly less polite terms to get to know the spike in a biblical sense.

What the heck does Costco have to do with a personal trainer anyway? I don’t get it. Was this guy selling or representing a product that Costco sells?

i usually go to costco on the way home from the gym and because he’s a “personal trainer” he asked me about working out and told me he was a “personal trainer” over and over… like a year ago…
today he asked me what was up with my cart…i said keto…he freaked out
he’s a tool
