You don't think it be like it is, but it do ... sometimes.

When you're saying something mean to yourself, ask yourself, "Would I say these words out loud to a friend?"

I'm going to de-rail my own thread just a bit to point out something else I've seen through the lens of online dating: Most profile I read have pretty strictly gender-normative expectations of men. Even women who loudly and proudly proclaim they're not a "girly girl" do imply that their partner should be a "manly man."…

To add muscle, the generally accepted advice is 1 gram per pound of lean body mass (not weight). Some folks go higher than that, but I've not seen compelling evidence that it's necessary. For weight loss or maintenance, it comes down to personal preference. Many folks find higher protein and fat keep them fuller longer. On…

In defense of granola, I like to put a quarter to a half-serving on top of my fruit/yogurt/kefir parfait in the morning for the "crunch" factor. It's not that many calories for a glorious mouthfeel.

I noticed an issue yesterday where the app will for no apparent reason delete a meal I rather painstakingly put together. Sometimes IN THE MIDDLE OF DOING IT, it will just disappear. I had even taken a picture of said meal. I clicked on the picture to add some more ingredients, nothing happened. I clicked again, the…

I'm trying to construct a Way of Eating where I don't feel especially compelled to have "CRAZY" cheat days.

I have considered it, and my therapist has even assured me that it's perfectly OK. And I do more or less like my life. I do what I want, when I want. It's comfortable and yet, somewhat paradoxically, I've also received steady advice to "get out of my comfort zone" as part of recovery. And for me, few things are as…

When I say I've never been on a date, I mean in the traditional sense of going out with someone you're not yet intimate with to figure out if you'd like to progress with them or not. Also, the sense where numbers are important: "first date," "second date," etc. My handful of relationships have always been with fellow party…

I changed some words to illustrate your issue: So I'm really on the struggle bus lately. I feel like my household budget has been a lot better, and I'm working 5 days a week. I'm really watching my credit card swipes..... But I'm not making any headway! I don't really look at my bank account as much to determine if I'm…

I was having a bad day when I made this topic! Forgive my childishness! FWIW, I'm nearing 41and have, essentially, never been on a date. And it's starting to wear on me ever so slightly. In the past few months, I've spent probably $500 on dating app memberships for the privilege of sending missives into the void. Younger…

Thank you; I was aware that children had the biggest impact by far.

Honest Question: What is the environmental impact of this sort of diet? Also, it seems like the sort of diet you could only pursue if you live in a developed economy.

Maybe it wasn't clear, but I'm referring to single women around my age in my rural area. So it's not really an outlook so much as an observation.

Not in the age of COVID. And even before COVID, I live in rural Appalachia. Single women my age are generally pillbillies, Pentecostal, or otherwise tragic in some way.

OK that's interesting. I'm the only male profile I've looked at, and I would never write anything like that.

Oh, I'm in now way suggesting that a preference for height isn't "real" or that it doesn't make sense in some primitive way. I'm just wondering why it's OK to be overt with that and not with arguably similar things. Such as race. Maybe, hypothetically, I prefer to date within my own race, but I would never say that.

I eat the same stuff, just slightly less of it. I have a couple of "problem" foods/drinks that I've cut out owing to self-control issues. In total, as of today, I've lost about 45 lbs. without significant overhaul to my way of eating. And this is something I can continue for the rest of my days, which is the important bit.…
