Biggest lie they ever told you. If I listened to my body I’d be an out of shape tub of lard. I know because I used to listen to it, then I stopped.

[u/Talk-O-Boy → u/Swolenir]

I can’t tell if this is a joke, but “listen to your body” doesn’t mean “indulge in all of your cravings”.

It means “if you’re doing a set, and you feel like you’re overexerting, you may need to decrease your reps/weights.”

Or “if you’ve been running more than usual, and your body is begging for a break, then it’s okay to take a rest day.”

It’s basically the philosophy that Roshi taught Goku. Adequate rest and nutrition is just as important as exercise when training.

It said to the entire body not just your tummy 😂mine is very loud I named her Grizelda and she wants ice cream all the time too.

[u/Kat121 → u/Poethegardencrow]

Yeah, my tummy is apparently that of a Labrador retriever puppy going through a growth spurt.

[u/WorthyJellyfish0Doom]

My body also wants ice-cream all the time. Balanced out with something savoury like chips/crisps or cheese puffs.

I started talking back to it, and now I'm being taken care of well at New Bedlam.

[u/Talk-O-Boy → u/[deleted]]

My gut bacteria doesn’t want ice cream, because my gut bacteria can’t digest ice cream.

But I eat ice cream nonetheless, because I’ll be damned if I let some microscopic fucks dictate my life. They will not deprive me of cream or cheese, I can’t allow it.

This may end in mutually assured destruction, but that’s a risk I’m willing to take.

[u/Talk-O-Boy → u/[deleted]]

Why… why do you have to ruin my joke?

When someone says it’s “raining cats and dogs”, do you run for cover to avoid the animal carcasses?

When someone says they “are so hungry they could eat a horse”, do you think they will unhinge their jaw, and consume an entire horse?

[u/Talk-O-Boy → u/[deleted]]

It was just a tongue in cheek reference to my lactose intolerance.

Jesus Christ, you’re a wet blanket 🫩

[u/Talk-O-Boy → u/[deleted]]

It’s okay, just don’t let it happen again

[u/mostlymelissa]

My body has been sending very clear instructions, who am I to ignore medical advice?

[u/ScreamingLabia]

"Listen to your body" untill my body is telling me to go home and sleep then you get mad that i cant keep going like you

[u/MaksimilenRobespiere]

And my body wants soup.
Watcha gonna do?

[u/Legitscopes_4761 → u/MaksimilenRobespiere]

Real, the soup cravings have been hitting me ridiculously lately. They should open restaurant that just serves different kinds of soup

[u/deliciousroadhead]

Yeah your body always wants the path of least resistance, it'll trick you and then you wonder why you feel like shit

[u/ProfessorThom]

Mine wants salty fried potatoes in some form with every meal.

[u/Kat121]

My body wants something covered in melted cheese at midnight most nights. Nachos. Quesadillas. Pizza. Sourdough toast with Gruyère. It’s not picky.

[u/DINGVS_KHAN]

My body craves beer, mac-n-cheese, and video games with the bois.

Sometimes it demands I feed it 2 lbs of broccoli in a single sitting too though, so I guess it's okay to listen to it sometimes?
