I have a desk that can change in height. So i can stand and work. I also have a barstool it works amazing.

Grab yourself a pocket knife and you'll never have to worry about forgetting the tent stakes.

To me it is analogous to packing your own parachute. You can go camping with other experienced people but they can still make mistakes, you need to ensure you yourself have checked the critical elements of your shelter.

This post isn't solely about camping experience but mainly personnel responsibility and the awareness needed for that.

When did I suggest drinking milk rather than eating a leafy green? It was an example of how low-fat was pushed for years while disregarding our need for fat to properly absorb nutrients that supposedly make milk "healthy".

In the context of the OP's situation - eating way too much food in order to feel satisfied - the suggestion of adding more fat to the diet is solid. Add some olive oil, full-fat dressing, and/or avocado to a salad. Bam. Better chance of feeling satisfied without the need to binge. It's not that difficult.

Use a 5 inch plate to serve your meals.

If you have not noticed, WhatsApp have now a feature to message yourself, so you don't have to create a group or anything like that.

I have 2 sims and 2 separate WhatsApps so I can both message and respond to myself get on my level.

Worked for big names before, but landing a job at an unfamiliar company has been my best career move yet!

Keeping it in the trunk is a good idea, it is way easier to get the smell off your hand than out of a clothes item.

Try "replacement therapy." Anytime you have the urge to snack, instead of giving into that urge, replace it with a healthier or more desirable action. Obviously, make sure you're eating enough to keep yourself satisfied. You may have created a habit out of overeating, so this should help to replace the habit if done diligently. I had a friend who quit smoking cigarettes via this method. He alleged that anytime he got a craving for a cigarette, he would just drop down and do as many push-ups as he could manage and claimed that by the time he was done with the push-ups he forgot about his craving. It's worth a shot!

First, congrats on figuring out the parenting routine. Plenty of people struggle to get anything done while taking care of a small child.

Your problem sounds like it is more about your motivations.

Do enjoy the company of your partner so much that you forget to clean? If so, maybe get them to join in?

Or you do not want to disturb him while you clean? Then identify the chores that you can do while they are there.

Or is it something about sharing the workload of chores? Like you feel it's their turn to clean? Or you do not want to pressure them into cleaning by doing it in front of them? That stuff is just something you need to talk about.

Can confirm. It's nothing short of amazing difference.

You're kind of right, but there's plenty of evidence that red meat and pork are terrible for you. Telling someone to eat fatty meat and cheese is the opposite of good diet advice (unless the person needs to put on weight, and even then, there are better options).

Telling someone to drink milk for calcium instead of eating almost any green vegetable (broccoli, kale, almost any leafy green) is wrong. It's just bad advice.

PS to OP: Go crazy with vegetables. You can eat pounds of vegetables for like 100 calories, it's just dumb.

I achieved this by very strict intermediate fasting. Normally you would Limit your self to certainly hours, while I did it every other Day. So every other Day I ate Normally, the following Day I drank only watered down juices, one egg for breakfast and a cup of broth for when I couldnt stand the Hunger. I did this for just a few months not mainly for weight loss (I lost weight), but because even when I did intensive Sport, weightlifting, running, cycling, hiking and kayaking, I grew fitter and gained muscle, but I did not Lose a Single gram of fat. So I felt like I had to somehow "reset" my metabolism. This helped me to cut down on portion size four years ago, and when I Do Cuts and bulks now, it actually works the way it is intended.

But in that same vein, you would have banked 2 to 3 weeks of PTO that you can also freely use which is something tangible and owed to you if you decided to leave your company today. But yea, it really comes down to where you work. Imo if you're not using at least 3 weeks of paid vacation per year at a company with unlimited PTO, you're losing compensation unfortunately.

This might be the most underrated LPT of all

Buy a kitchen timer or whatever, set it for every hour. When the alarm goes off, get up, stretch, whatever.

It's like the concept of negative freedom: you don't want to protest against anything right now, but you wouldn't move to a country which explicitly bans public protest.

I have unlimited PTO, but I have only taken 6-7 days off in the last 1 year. But knowing that I will be able to if I need it definitely counts as a perk for me.

Keep your goddamn fingers in your pocket. How hard is to suffer hunger? Weakling

Red meat and veggies and fruit

Veg because you can eat a metric fuck ton and not really see a ton of calories

Red meat because it’s satiating and it’s pretty hard to overeat just meat. Note that I don’t mean like a hamburger or soemthing, I mean like straight meat. A steak, fajitas with no sides, roast beef, that type of thing.
