Wai Food Guide Pyramid

panacea · Post by **panacea** » Thu 08 Jul 2010 01:20

Hi all I made a Wai food guide pyramid to illustrate in one glance what the diet consists of, it's very basic and that's why most beginners are confused, they think there is more to it than there really is!

So just look at this when you're hungry.

if you're using the no-squint add-on for firefox hold down control and use down arrow key twice for normal-zoom to see the whole thing.

clarifications - use the scroll wheel while holding control.. sorry I'll make it smaller soon. also it has one typographical error it should explain raw fruits are okay whole, you don't need to juice or sun-dry them, just optional.

Wow, that looks great!

I think that "other oils" could be within parentheses after "olive oil", since you could even replace olive oil by other oils.
Hmm, is the pyramid based on weight, or nutrients, or something else?

it's divided in a way to show what you should be consumimg most of, least of, etc. for example 80% fruits, 15% raw eggs/fish, %5 olive oil, or something like that. just a guideline.

Well technically speaking I'm consuming 100gr of sugar per day, and only 35ml olive oil (and some coconut oil). RRM even more

I only copied the format from wai's page, and put the optional stuff, according to her, the smallest portion... to be honest a pyramid-format isn't the most effective lol I only used it to make fun of the real (worse) food pyramid, and show the differences. btw, if I made a fun skin for the forum and the majority liked it (in a poll), could we make it a secondary forum theme? (drop down menu at bottom to switch between, keep this as default). it needs some personality we have a cult to promote! <sarcasm>

(Inside panaceas mind: I'm lonely.. must attract new memebers until new posts happen every 15 seconds to keep me busy)

I'm not a 'her'

Sure, make a skin if you like and I'll add it (after I figure out how to do that).

Oscar is saying he is the MAN behind the new Wai diet website.
And Wai is nobody, it's a pseudonym...

wow I'm stupid lol, thanks iris.

for some reason I thought wai was the woman in all the drawings, Oscars wife, and oscar was the drawer/site maintainer or something. LOL

Haha, funny how you can imagine things, huh

When the Wai diet was founded, there where initially 2 persons behind the pseudo "Wai" (the creators of the Wai diet). Only one of those two is still here, namely RRM. But this has been discussed over and over again in other threads, so it kind of surprises me you didn't know... Reading old threads you learn a lot

(also truly interesting stuff

)

Well, the drawings do point towards the indeed female side of the original Wai team, so you're not that stupid.

hey oscar - regarding the forum theme I'm working on.. the only way I can make it really good is to use the capabilities of phpbb 2.0.23

the currently installed version according to the changelog is phpbb 2.0.20, is that correct?

so in order for it to work it would have to be updated three times, have you had experience with this?

if not I'll just abandon the project no big deal

Post by **Oscar** » Fri 09 Jul 2010 01:16

Hehe, I had hoped to wait with that update, but I'll do it soon then. The current version is 2.0.22 btw.

why wait in the first place? im curious now
