Honestly? Not a need, no, but a definite preference and I think everyone's entitled to have them. Not something I usually bring up, but...

I've been rocking the t-shirt+jeans look, 24/7, for nearly twenty years now. Wouldn't be fair to expect anything more than that from you girls either... Maybe earrings.

<3 starchy carbs <3 but, if I'm planning a big meal and want to cut down on calories, I'll chop up mushrooms (not too small) and saute them with some onions or scallions. It's satisfying, flavourful and super quick/easy ETA: and fairly low-carb by volume.

Don't much care for plain rice either. I get that you can use it to absorb sauce, but that's what bread is for :) Pilaf, risotto and fried rice, however, are delicious and I eat them often.

There's no one answer to this question, it depends enormously on what level you teach at and where you live. Currently, I teach... let's say community college would be the equivalent in the US - I'm guessing that's where you live based on this site's demographic - and enjoy it, but wouldn't be willing to teach at the…

Add in safety goggles and earplugs and you've got it covered, my dude. Report back with results.

Well, I teach as a main gig and occasionally do some freelance programming on the side. Lol. Anyway, I'm in my mid 30's now and went through a career change a few years back when I must have been roughly your age. Much less drastic than what you're considering, research => current setup, but still. One thing that helped me…

Made a thing with ground meat, vegetables and tomatoes (canned :embarassed:). I like it... Could have used more salt and less pepper, but such is life when you eyeball spices.

Yesterday's dinner was 688 calories*, it was a stew with green peas and meat, so... swap out the green peas for green beans and it'd be about 600... *: it was actually a bit more with the bread I used to clean the plate, but I had pre-logged it.

All except Gmail, but I import all of my other mail on it.

...figure out if "I don't care if I ever..." and "I don't care if I never..." are truly equivalent.

Not great, not terrible ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I make sure to eat some dairy, some fruit and some vegetables every day, don't stress protein all that much but make sure I get the RDI every day, the rest mostly takes care of itself. The only micro I track - and am usually a bit low on - is fiber. Because reasons.

...?

Guess I gave away my own answer with that...

Girls: Do you prefer daily needy "Hello" texts or the strict minimum communication necessary to set up dates? I'm down for most DYI projects... as long as it doesn't involve electrical stuff. Nearly electrocuted myself once, not eager to give it another shot...

I like unsalted walnuts and chestnuts, but other nuts really need a little salt. And +1 on non-diet soda. My body doesn't even register that they have calories...

I don't understand how people can eat eggs without bread. Except maybe hardboiled eggs, MAYBE... Don't you need something to "soak up" the heaviness?

Does it also, statistically speaking, result in a healthier relationship with food?

As someone who's sipping some brandy as he writes this... I really hate when people go "wine/beer/bottom-shelf vodka/whatever is good for you". Just fess up to drinking because you enjoy it and move on. Vices are for man like spices for food: too much is bad but, within limits, it's more than fine (if not particularly…

Since people gave a lot of support :) I figured I'd give an update. Tuesday night, I figured that if I'm going to eat trash, I might as well eat overcooked trash and simmered it for another hour and a bit, and that... really improved it. The meat was still bland but at least it was tender and a bit more flavourful because…

I only post in this thread when I make a disaster, lol. Anyway, I made some stew last night and it turned out pretty bad. The vegetables are fine, the sauce... eh, I used canned tomato sauce because I'm lazy so it's pretty sugary and nasty, but the seasonings, dill and garlic I added mostly balance it out so it's okay. But…

Honestly? I wake up most morning wanting to piss and it's not until I've had some caffeine that I can feel one way or the other about the upcoming day. And to contribute something to the thread: I officially entered the mid 30s (in the sense that I can't lie to myself anymore) a few weeks ago, and my feels about that…

I'm willing to believe that you need 'bout tree fiddy grams of protein a day for the specific goal of bodybuilding... but just for generic health I agree with you, it's more a matter of personal preference.

Yeah, at some point the hangovers became too bad to be worth it... At least I still have the memories, by which I mean that I don't.

Humans have that too, actually. It's called dancing. *Busts out his one wicked dance move that consists of moving his shoulders back and forth just slightly out of sync with the music so that, over time, it becomes completely random.*

Evidently, OkCupid users are taller and wealthier than average. What other explanation could there be? :p Tbh, I think it's both men lying and women not really being able to tell. YMMV but, in my experience, people (regardless of gender) only truly perceive five heights: "about the same as me", "a bit shorter", "a bit…

Zimnicea. I's a kittenhole.
