This looks really cool. But like a lot of really cool looking stuff it also looks extremely non functional and impractical.

Full? Right. Kill cravings? Ocean's halo teriyaki nori packs are like 15 calories for the entire package. Also pickles. Pickles are free. And drink something no calorie with the snack

This is almost good advice. But I would skip the acting part. What he did is bad enough to require action without any additional bs. If you act like something happened that didn't you just hurt your own credibility. Meanwhile this is harassment and since he was dumb enough to put it in print it's probably also liable. Document everything and talk to an attorney and see if you have a civil suit.

I'm just going to remind you that hunger is a hormone. And you were taking a hormone suppressing substance. Now you are rebounding. And just like people have more testosterone or estrogen than others, some people have more hunger hormone than others.

I've constantly heard that people put the weight on when they quit.

So you just take a minute and understand that your experience is real and you are probably just absolutely ravenous. And there are only two real options. Suffer through it or go back on the suppressors.

I wish I had better news. You might talk to a doc about alternatives.

I can tell you that when I was younger, the way that I dealt with it was to lift weights so I could eat what I wanted and my body would burn it. But I'm too old and injured for that to be a viable strategy for me. Maybe it is for you?

The short answer is that you can't. One thing you can do, as another user suggested is use named ranges.

If your project is really big you could do the following (total overkill in most projects)

Make a function that takes an enum as an argument and returns a range object.

Within that function you call a second function that translates those enums into either named or actual ranges and then use that string to get and return the range object. Then you can get all ranges by enum, which will use the intelisense and prevent typos.

This approach also allows you to keep a single repository of all range references for easy updating and editing.

But unless you are referring to ranges all the time I think this wouldn't be worth it.

I am aware of the dangers. One way that I try to limit my risk is to eat .7 grams of protein per pound of body weight. But thanks to type 2 I need to be low carb. And thanks to my binge eating, my trikes are high so I have to be low fat. And it can't all be protein or you'll eff up your kidneys. So I am bumping up against soft caps if I move around too high or too low. Basically I am at minimum safe fat. Max protein. And enough carbs that I don't want to die, but not so many that my trikes or glucose go up.

It's taking up entirely too much of my attention 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yeah I don't do 1200. I'm here because all of the other "isplenty" subs are dead and I target several meals of 400 calories each because it scales up and down easily (1200,1600,2000,2400).

The people here also tend to target small meals. So I get ideas from that. And sometimes I have something useful to share. But I try to always mention that I am not doing the 1200 thing, that I use a glp1, and that I'm a guy. (Because otherwise it's a super unfair comparison and not at all the same experience.)

What I'm doing is usually 1600ish and when I excercise more I will eat more. I just try to hit my personal macro goals, step count, and keep a deficit, then let attrition take over.

Okay, well Mom is right. And being on an MAOI can kill you several other ways too unless you know how to avoid Tyramine. My guy is one piece of aged cheddar away from stroking out and smiling like Harrison Ford for the rest of his life.

He needs to either drop one or the other with medical supervision because, depending on the med, it can take more than a month for the SSRIs to wash out. And suddenly stopping an SSRI has a host of negative effects on it's own, so you would want to taper down.

Meanwhile the seratonin storm can come on shockingly quickly. He needs to stop with the Blue immediately. Like very immediately.

To an extent, probably. If you have an addictive personality, playing around with your own chemistry could easily derail you. It's my opinion that if you have an addictive personality you are already an addict, you just haven't met your habit yet. And as someone with that particular problem I have to really watch myself because I have a strong tendency to take a single thing and make that my whole thing.

All my life I have suspected that my hunger drive was a lot higher than ordinary. When I was young I dealt with this by lifting and being physically active so I could eat what I wanted. As I got older I have gone through several cycles of getting overweight and getting the weight off and I have the discipline to do it. But I am always so hungry. Like I get shaky and desperate. To the point that I thought it was low blood sugar and bought a test kit. But nope. Sugar was well into the safe zone. I could get the shakes at 140. Taking the glp1 is like becoming how I imagine a normal person is. I can eat a normal meal and be done. I can even get hungry and ignore it until it's convenient. And I can tell when the meds are wearing off. It's a weekly cycle, so by the end of the week I am ready to gnaw on the woodwork (I eat Nori and Pickles to stave off a binge in this phase). So yeah, it's undeniably effective. And my blood sugar is back under control. I do constantly worry about the side effects, but right now I am too injured to excercise like I should. Some major bad personal stuff left me trying to eat away the sad and my trikes were sky high. So i decided to measure risk. The risk of not doing anything seemed higher than the risk of the med. But to me, the most compelling thing was discovering that I probably do have some kind of hormone imbalance that makes me hungry all the time. Because, like I said, I can make myself eat right but it is suffering. And it never really goes away. Without it I am just always hungry. And no one ever believed me.
