Yes, njqt, turn to the dark side, drink the sweet protein drink.

And what is considered working out a lot?

It's very annoying to go to a friends home to watch a football game and have her husband lecture you on the evils of the potato chips you are dipping in the onion dip which they provided.

Also these guys always want you to run or work out with them.

Sorry, not happening . . . ever.

I forgot the obvious. Any man that works out obsessively has no time to treat a woman right. This is unacceptable.

I think you are making some generalizations here. I like to talk about health related things myself, hopefully not as much as the people you reference here. But it's no worse than someone talking too much about any hobby they have.
