I’ve heard PDJT and a couple of his kids say that he stresses “TINY BITES!” when they eat. The first time was when that pic came out of John Kasich cramming a piece of pizza in his mouth — the 2016 campaign I believe.
They’re all at a good weight, so maybe the tiny bites results in eating slowly, which results in helping with weight.
“always get a salad, just to have some vegetable intake.”
Hubby is obsessed with salad — lettuce especially, which doesn’t have much food value. It’s a misconception that lettuce is super healthy. When I make salad for myself, it’s just a teeny bit of lettuce, and heavy on green peppers, cucumbers, tomatoes, and any actual vegetables in the fridge, including leftovers. I make his lettuce-heavy because he thinks it’s super “good for you”.
“Go see your doctor. Listen to what they say.”
Yeah, I beat cheeks to doctors every time I have a question because ... you know ... they were so helpful during Covid.
(I don’t.)
How do you “do” Grok?
We had tons of rhubarb in the house where I grew up, and then a huge plant when I lived in Alaska.
I eat it raw, but rhubarb pie is one of my faves. Mom would make rhubarb-strawberry pie. Gross.
Note: Rhubarb leaves are poisonous to humans and animals.
I lost about 25 lbs on keto a couple years ago. Have gained some back, but am trying a version of IF and I think it’s helping some.
We eat one “big” meal each day around 2pm — sometimes fish/meat and veggie. About once a week a little cheat, something more interesting like a pasta dish. Maybe have a snack in the evening if I’m hungry: Meat and cheese, or peanut butter on a carb balance tortilla.
Whenever I eat the last time of the day, I wait at LEAST 16 hours before eating the next day.
It’s loosey-goosey, but I feel pretty good. Don’t think I’m gaining weight. (I don’t “do” scales, just judge by the fit of my clothes.)
As long as he doesn't have any salad dressing with that salad ... or croutons, of course ...
Many years ago I visited the manatee exhibit at the zoo in Tampa. I was a little amused to notice that they fed the manatee lettuce.
Count calories. It is the only scientific way to lose weight. Doesn’t matter what you eat or whether you wear your joints out exercising.
Just find you base calorie consumption from one of the many website calculators like Fitness Pal, deduct 600 calories per day and you will lose a pound per week.
On iOS install the “X” app. It’s an icon in the app. Or go to X.com. It’s an icon there, too. Then you can ask it questions.
Oh, Jeez. I just read some of these posts. Who knew? No wonder people can’t lose weight. There are the craziest things I’ve ever seen in the previous posts. Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but you are most all destined to be fat and unhealthy and frustrated.
Just eat a balanced diet of things you like, count the calories going in through the mouth and when you get to the number of calories that causes you to lose weight if you are trying to lose or maintain weight if you are trying to maintain, and JUST STOP EATING!!!
Next day start over. Repeat forever.
As that oracle of wisdom, Jessie Ventura so aptly put it, “Every fat person says it’s not their fault, that they have gland trouble. You know which gland? The saliva gland. They can’t push away from the table.”
I’m blinded by your science.
