Count your calories and see what isn't worth it. Usually the best thing to cut first is liquid calories, when I realized I could basically have another meal a day if I quit soda, it made things a lot easier.

I guess the most important thing would be to focus on lifestyle changes. You can have a super strict diet for months and lose tons of weight, but if you don't incorporate that as a permanent change, it can be easy to gain it back while not in "diet mode." Smaller changes that you stick with perpetually are better in the long run, even a 100 calorie daily deficit will eventually see results.

Also perhaps get a kitchen scale for portion control, this kinda ties in with counting your calories, but after I started measuring meals it was also easier to not overeat.

This means there is legit cause for 50%+ of the population to grumble.

Should the government not be ran according to the consent of the governed? The solution is not less democracy.

No, you missed the point.

I know what greentexts are, just because I think yours is low effort slop doesn't mean I need it explained.

A) 4Chan isn't dead

B) Greentexts are a part of imageboard culture in general

is the date cropped because it's from today? because it seems like you went looking for the first post with greentext for the purpose of submitting anything

I really don’t see this as a negative strawman

All strawmen are negative, if a person (or their argument) needs to be caricatured to be attacked, it shouldn't be attacked. If it can be attacked and you're just caricaturing for fun, then you're diluting the argument and shouldn't.

Anyone using the word Obongo to refer to Obama does not make that distinction

idk, that's a strawman. Obongo is often just used as a funny word because it's 4chan

[–] abbotsbury@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Sure, that's plausible, but that's also just 4chan lingo.

yes, which would make this specific criticism of Obamacare nonfactual, but anon is still not blaming socialized medicine like the person I replied to thinks

I know what obongo means, don't know what "other side" discourse you think I'm looking for, but you seem to have made up your mind about what kind of strawman I am, so have fun I guess.

 
 

Excluded is the one month of IGN+ or whatever. This one actually seems kinda decent, if not for the fact I have no interest in the System Shock remake.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Humble changed their pricing model this year, so it's my last year subscribing, so I want to use a little more discretion and skip some months because they do have "tent poles" that interest me sometimes. This month the tent pole is Persona 5, which I hear is good, but I still have Persona 4 on my backlog and it doesn't interest me too much.
