    It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten a Payday, my favorite.
    It’ll be on my mind all day.

    There’s a protein bar made from cricket “flour”! I’ve never had it before but maybe?

    Sometimes I wish there was an Agree button for times I agree with stuff but don’t necessarily like It.

    Wondering why there's such a big difference in the "2" and "3" settings for my ceiling fan.

    Yeah, if I wasn’t lowering it it would be a fun day to swim. The water is warmer than the air right now

    There are simply certain topics in this world that if someone tries to talk to me about, my eyes automatically glaze over. Like football, insurance, stocks and bonds, gossip about others, telling me step by step how to cook something.

    So when I was hanging with the niece (8) last weekend she pointed to my rainbow unicorn keychain that I keep hooked to my purse and said, "I like that, can I have it?" I told her no because it was my souvenir from Cali. She's like, "How much do you want for it."" How much do you have?""$120". I tell her that's way too much and then I said that I paid $3 tops for it. "$3? I'll give you $20 ".
    👀 Who tf is this kid??? I didn't make the sale because it was never up for sale and she has no concept of money smh.

    You should have taken all of her money.

    .... and then some.

    $120 for the down payment, finance the balance at a confiscatory rate.

    Chalk it up to a Life Lesson when she complains later in life.

    I don't actively do IF, but if I don't eat after supper (say I stop eating at 8PM) and then don't eat breakfast till 8AM isn't that IF?? I'm not trying to hate on IF, but isn't break-fast literally the breaking of a fast every morning (or whenever you eat your first meal depending on your sleep schedule)? Even when I wasn't WFH I'd probably stop eating around 8PM and eat breakfast at around 7AM before I left for work. Isn't this just "normal" meal routine? (I know some folks work different hours so the time of day could look different).

    I feel like this is coming across as rude, and I don't mean it to be. I just don't understand (I know some IF says fast for like 20 hours eat for 4, which I could never do because I am usually hungry when I wake up). Anyway, this is what's on my mind as I pretend to study.

    i thought it was like 16/8, 18/6 or 20/4
    like 12/12 i would think would normal routine

    Doesn’t seem rude at all! IF isn’t for everyone but it’s what I do. I’ve been doing it for years but only started “clean fasting” since last year June. I started 16/8. Then 18/6 (which is what I normally do). And then some longer ones (like 42-48 hours, not super often these days). I think IF can be whatever you make it but if you’re looking at the autophagy and different benefits, the benefits increase as the fasting time increases. Again....some people may not agree with all of this and that’s ok. I live it and believe in it and it’s worked for me. I’m 72 lbs down due in large part to fasting. This chart kind of shows what I’m talking about.

    But you’re totally correct, breakfast is literally breaking a fast every morning. I just choose to break my fast way later in the day. Hope this helps a little?

    Random thought....it’s groups like K-Ci & JoJo and other 90’s singers that screwed up my thoughts of what love would look like as a grown up.
